Today, I was supposed to start my first day of work at my dream job. However, my car had other plans and refused to start. When I called my boss to tell him I was going to be late, he told me not to come in at all and fired me on the spot. FML

No warning
Today, despite leaving early to go to work, I still ended up late because some dude decided to have an argument with the bus driver, delaying us by 20 minutes. As a result, I was fired without a write-up. This was my first ever time being late. FML

Today, I got fired for being late. Apparently you're supposed to be on time after your boss specifically tells you that the office will open an hour late. FML

Today, I arrived at work and was immediately given a disciplinary write-up for being two hours late for my shift. Apparently the manager had changed my schedule that morning and failed to tell me. FML

Today, I started a new yard maintenance job. Before the day had even ended, I got fired, because I apparently didn’t have enough experience, and I moved too slowly. It was supposed to be my training day. FML

Rule #564 when you get a new job. Show up 15 or more minutes early. No thats not a random number.

That'll do it. You deserve it for not knowing better. Unless of course if it was an emergency. Still though. That was a dumb move.

I wouldn't take a job for anything less than $800 anyways .. MINIMUM !!

£600 is equivalent to $975 US dollars. 'Was equivalent to even more back in 2010.

I'm always at least 15 minutes early for work and I don't make that much money. You deserve it. Maybe now they'll give the position to someone who really wants/needs it.
