Talk to HR he can't fire you for making personal calls during your lunch break. FYL OP.

Well shit. If I were OP I would definitely file a complaint or something.

This guy doesn't deserve a party.

At that point, I would have yelled at him about the party, made him feel like a total jackass, and ruined it for him. What a jerk!

Where the hell do you work, auschwitz?! This kind of shit doesn't happen in real life for these reasons. Also, for those who say you can be fired with or w/o any reason isn't entirely true UNLESS it is a matter of downsizing or the position being eliminated. Reason being that a reason must be given to the state when going for unemployment, at which point it would be investigated if your boss told them "was looking on their phone during lunch". Know your rights and get this taken are of, or stop making shit up for Internet sites.

Looks like the party canceled due to an asshole boss move.

Take him to court

Can he even do that? .__.

No, no he can't.

Nope... can't fire you for something personal done on lunch break.

That is so stupid

The boss can't fire OP for being on their phone while on lunch break. I think that boss is stupid.

Simple. Tell him the truth. He would have to have a heart of stone to still fire you!

You should throw him the worst party in the world, with all the lamest music and decorations. That'll show him.

Music should be a medley of Abba, Enya, Byork, Kate Bush & Bay City Rollers. Food should be, all green lollies (noone likes them) a chocolate fountain with a touch of wee, & a two day old loaf of bread. Decorations, Justin Beaber posters. That will fix him!

Whoa, steady on. We just want to punish the guy, not kill him.

Lol. Am a girl... Too much experience is a dangerous thing.

Just put Twilight on with surround sound and lock him in the room

Not to mention it was in your lunch hour... Wait... You sure he wasn't looking for an excuse to fire you?

make him feel bad at the surprise party then

That sucks, op. Maybe you should tell him what you were planning and he'd feel guilty, but don't go back to your job. You dont want an ass like that

#10 Don't know y!!..... But i do totally agree with your point of view lol

In this economy, he might want that job back anyway.

I feel like it would be totally epic for you to just show up at the surprise party, hand him a printout of your internet history from planning the party, and say, "Happy Birthday, asshole" then dramatically walk out. You probably don't want to work someone like that anyway. Sorry, OP.

Aww dang that sucks I'm sorry:(

It's Friday all over again!

I think that some just don't understand your reference. I did. I love that movie.(:

Thank you cat.(:
