Today, I was in a bad mood after being stuck in traffic for 2 hours and late for work. I was walking to my building when I saw a 100 dollar note flying my way. A man called after me for it, but being selfish I took the note in my pocket as a little reward. That man was my boss. Yes, I'm fired. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boss flipped me off in traffic on my way to work. FML
Today, my coworker got a raise by making our boss give me a pay cut for doing his job while he was slacking off. As we were heading home for the day, he found $100. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, I was getting lunch at a fast food restaurant. My boss was in front of me, and in order to get on his good side I offered to pay. Instead, I got fired because I guess my boss assumed I was making fun of his salary, which I knew nothing about. FML
Today, my boss fired me by locking me out of my workplace after I went out to throw out the trash. FML
Today, as I was driving to work, I got a flat tire. While attempting to replace said tire, I got mugged. The guy took all my money, my iPod, cellphone, and CDs. When I finally called my boss to explain my situation, he fired me. Why? Because I was late and had an "overactive imagination." FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, when I got to work, I found out that I was being laid off. Two hours later, I found out my boss had my name on the wrong list. I was elated. I went to lunch, but on the way back was rear-ended, in the rain. I was an hour and a half late getting back to work. I was fired upon returning. FML
Today, I walked into my boss's office to ask for a raise, and walked out unemployed. FML
Today, I was starting my new job in the city. A man with a torn suit on came up to me and asks me for spare change. In a hurry to catch a taxi, I declined and rushed to catch one. At the office, my boss was late. About an hour later, I found out the man in the suit was my boss. He was attacked. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's not a valid reason for firing you... I mean, yeah, you probably should have given the money back if somebody had just lost it but, you were on the street, not in the building, right? That's an unjust reason for being fired. I'd say it was Karma but it's not. I'm going to get a shit storm for typing that but that's just how I see it. :/

Stealing from your boss IS a valid reason for being fired. So is being late.

They weren't in the building, and anybody that see's a bill flying in the air can say 'OMG it's mine!'. And unless OP is late all the time, it's not valid. I'm just going to end this now, I think it was an unjust termination and I'm glad you disagree. Opinions are important.

obviously his boss HAD just lost it, or else how would he have been able to call the OP for it? But by how you see it, if you drop your wallet on the street and you're standing right next to it, it's all fair game, right? .......no sympathy for the OP

Not sure what world you live in, but stealing from your boss, whether it is on company property not is a completely legal, and morally valid reason for firing someone. Actually, many employers have morality clauses in their contracts that allow them to terminate you for behaviour like this even if it is done outside of work.

Not just stealing from your boss, but stealing, period. The OP was seen to commit theft by a superior. The OP deserved to be fired for committing said theft. That the theft was of the superior's property makes it worse, not better. It's beyond me why someone would not only steal $100 that they clearly do not have the right to have and in clear view of the rightful owner, but why they would then come brag about it on a site like this.

Karma's a bitch, bro! :) As a little reward for what exactly did you take the note? For being an asshole?

You're lucky you just got fired, OP. if I was in your boss' position, I would've kicked your ass within an inch of your life and left you there to die. Seriously, go kill yourself right now, because i'm sure we'd all be better off without you.

Obviously OP was wrong in what he did. But to say for someone to go kill themselves? That's taking it too far.

YDI for stealing. It's no more of a "reward" than if you outright robbed someone.
