Today, I was fired on my second day of work after a year and a half of unemployment. Apparently, my "tendency to solve problems instead of just accepting them made the other workers uneasy". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, for the first time since I can remember, I went in to work feeling positive, and that I could make good things happen. At the end of the day, my employment was terminated. FML
Today, I was fired for being a very happy and perky employee. According to my boss, it freaks both the customers and my co-workers out. FML
Today, I got fired after three days at my new job. They told me it was because of downsizing. They were still interviewing people and had a help wanted sign in the window. FML
Today, I was fired for actively seeking employment with another company. Because of having just been fired, the other company will no longer give me the time of day. FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, after nearly eight months of unemployment, I started a great new job. After seven and a half hours of work, my new boss comes up to tell me what a great job I was doing, but that he somehow forgot to clear the new hire with the company owner, so I'm fired. Hello, unemployment... again. FML
Today, I was fired for the second time in as many days. I received a letter notifying me that I would no longer be working for the company, effective immediately. When I did not attend work the next day, I received a phone call firing me for not turning up. FML
Today, I got fired from my job because I "look too grumpy." FML
Today, I was let go at work. About 2 years ago, we had hired an eager-to-learn "assistant" for me. When they canned me, they let me know that I should've trained him faster so I could've been fired sooner. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yay for people's insecurities! I had coworkers like that once, I ended up quitting.

Seriously, what kind of workplace is that? Unless its McDonalds or a asshole retail store then this is ridiculous.

Weird, I thought solving problems was what you were supposed to do in a workplace....

How DARE you use your brain to do something, rather than sit idly by and complain about it like everyone else?

Precisely. Didn't you read the job description? "WANTED: No-getter with followership skills."

I guess OP might have something to do with the council or local government. The only tools i have seen in the back of a council truck here are fold out chairs and the occasional bbq.

Wow! I know that times are tough, but I'm wondering if OP isn't more fortunate to not be working at that place. Good luck on the new job search.

It also depends on what problem OP was solving, what if it was a physical problem with a co-worker. Then OP would deserve it, not saying thats what happened, I'm just saying.

What?

I think they are trying to say the coworker could have had a physical problem, like a broken leg or being blind, and op solved it by healing the coworker. No acts of miracles at work policy, almost every place has one.

No, my apologizes for being too general. I meant like a physical altercation with another employee, because op had a problem he couldn't solve with another peer.

Stupid tendency to be responsible. This is why we can't have nice things!
