Today, my boss is writing me up for not signing a report before I left work. He refused to print the report that day, and I don't have access to the printers. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my boss tried to fire me for not emailing him a screenshot to prove my email wasn't working. FML
Today, my boss yelled at me for leaving on time. After months of management hounding us about our overtime, I get in trouble for doing what I was supposed to do. FML
Today, my boss used our communal notebook to bitch out our entire department for not leaving a note notifying her that one of the machines was down. She wrote it on the same page as the note I left saying that one of the machines was down. FML
Today, my boss threw out the report I wrote for the board of directors. He said that if it were legal, he'd smash me in the balls with a brick for using Comic Sans. I had to do the whole thing again in another font with my coworkers snickering at me. FML
Today, I got chewed out by my boss. Why? Because my coworkers haven't gotten their work done. Now I have to scan them their work for them to complete it. FML
Today, my boss fired me by locking me out of my workplace after I went out to throw out the trash. FML
Today, I went to deliver some reports to my boss in his office. He was facing away from me and ranting about his "useless employees", so I slipped in and waited for him to put the phone down. Turns out he was talking to himself. When he noticed me, he bitched me out and threatened to fire me. FML
Today, my boss made me type up my own written warning, where I had to trash myself and describe my own "shocking incompetence". All the department heads are going to receive a copy of this. FML
Today, I tried to quit my job. My boss pulled me into his office and gave me a write-up for quitting, told me that he knows where I live, and that I'd better be at work tomorrow or he's going to come and drag me into work. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Remember: you don't HAVE to sign a write up. If you think it's bullshit (which it is) don't sign it.

Just because they don't sign it, doesn't mean they don't stand. Signing a write up doesn't mean you agree- it means you are in receipt of the write up. Besides, if you refuse to sign it, the they will just write that you refused to sign it. I used to have a staff like that- amazingly, they don't work for me anymore.

Many write ups have a blank space where you can write your comments on the situation. If OP is forced to sign the write up, I hope he puts his dispute information about the event.

Don't sign it. Take the issue up with HR.

I was written up for not ordering items in my department. my manager was the only one with access to order items. so when my manager wrote me up I replied in writing, "My manager has not given me access to do x so thus I've not been able to perform this action. the way that I will improve is to ask for managerial sign in so I have access to the order screen. I was informed that this is against company policy leaving me unable to access the ordering menu." let me just say my manager's face was priceless. good thing we had a witness there too. I recommend that kind of response.
