Today, my best friend was fired from the place we both work at because she's a bad employee. After they fired her she said, "If I go, I'm taking my best friend with me." So they fired me too. I actually liked that job. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got fired. Not because of anything I did, but because my best friend, who'd I'd gotten hired, stood up for herself when both the owner's wife and daughter became disrespectful professionally. She then quit and got a job with a competitor. They started looking at her LinkedIn. Two weeks later, I get canned. FML
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, I was fired. Not only was I fired with no warning, not only was my friend the one who fired me, but I was fired from the unpaid volunteering position I took to help her out. 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, my girlfriend came to my workplace to tell me she was breaking up with me. My boss, who was passing by, fired me for "chatting with friends" during work hours. FML
Today, my best friend went to my boss and offered to do my job for half the pay. FML
Today, I found out that my best friend is being sacked. He's also about to rent a new apartment which he won't be able to afford when he loses his job. I can't warn him or I'll breach confidentiality and lose my job as well. FML
Today, after a long couple of months working non-stop, I finally got someone to cover my shift. Turns out she was joking, and when I didn't show up for work, I was fired. FML
Today, my “best friend” threw me under the bus and got me fired from my job, possibly getting charges pressed against me. She told on me for sweethearting (ringing up one item when she'd bought multiple items) her, all because I’m dating a guy she likes. She didn’t even tell me she liked him. FML
Today, I got fired via text. The last sentence was, "Wish you the best, take care!" FML

if you are old enough to work, you should be adult enough to speak up if someone gets you fired from a job you like. You don't have to just take it. So is your friend in charge of all your employment decisions for the rest of your life?

Obviously she isn't the only bad employee.

The job would have sucked after your friend left. If you really liked the job, you would have "trained" your friend to be a non-shitty employee. Leading by example works wonders, and it's so subtle, the bad employee doesn't even know you are indoctrinating them.

exactly. it's illegal to fire someone if you don't have a good reason.

Welcome to the world of BFFs. For her next trick, she'll steal your boyfriend.

It's illegal to fire someone in Canada without cause. Firing you because your friend is a jackass is grounds for a wrongful dismissal suit. Talk to the boss and tell them you want your job back and see what happens.
