Today, my boss went out for a few hours. My coworkers saw this as an opportunity to take a 2 hour lunch without getting caught. I stayed at the office to answer the phone, while streaming videos which is a big no no. My boss came back early and caught me, they're all still taking lunch. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boss fired me for "fooling around" on my phone. I was looking for supplies for a surprise party we are throwing him for his birthday, and I didn't want to do it on my work computer because he has access to our history. Also, this happened during my lunch break. FML
Today, I snuck out of work 2 hours early. As I was speeding away so I wouldn't be seen, I rear-ended my boss as he was leaving the lower parking lot for a late lunch. FML
Today, during lunch, my coworker offered me her food, claiming she was full. I was still quite hungry, so I accepted it. Halfway through eating the sandwiches, my boss walked in and started interrogating people over who took his lunch. I quickly realized I was the one eating it. FML
Today, I took a video of a fellow employee doing nothing but watching YouTube videos at work. When I showed the video to my boss, hoping he'd be reprimanded, I got fired for operating video equipment on company grounds. FML
Today, I finally caught the person who has now and again been stealing my lunch at work for weeks. It was my boss. I awkwardly watched him eat my sandwich while he talked about how he's been "saving money by bringing food from home." FML
Today, I sneaked off work early. As I was in the elevator on the way down to leave, it stopped at my boss's floor, and he got in. FML
Today, my boss left early, so I decided to take an extended break and run home. I found my wife in bed with my boss. I got fired for leaving work. FML
Today, my boss called me while I was working from home to bitch me out over being away from my computer for 49 minutes, when my lunch break is only 45 minutes, thus wasting another 13 minutes. My boss is known for spending hours online gaming from home during work hours. FML
Today, a random customer at work admonished my coworker for being on her phone. During our lunch break. As he walked away, my coworker muttered, "What the fuck is his problem?" I nodded in agreement. He heard her and saw me nodding. As did our boss. Time to get written up. FML
Today, my boss sent a message to a coworker saying, "We're putting all of you back on the phones because one of you can't stop watching Netflix so corporate thinks you guys don't do anything." That person was me. Everyone's pissed at me now. FML

And you're upset because you were the only one caught? You're just as bad as they are. The only difference is that you were dumb enough to get caught. If you're lucky enough to keep your job, then DO YOUR JOB, dumbass.

And what are the consequences for you? and the rest of the employees? guess your boss wasn't too happy with them either. Just rat them out and try to make yourself look better, lol

so what you're saying is in an empty office you didn't hear the boss come in? sheesh if you knew it was wrong you should have shut it down before the boss got to your desk!

"Streaming videos"... of yourself? As a side "profession"? I've seen those "streaming videos". You should just offer to share your profits with your boss.

So if I understand you, you're upset because everyone broke the rules, but only you got caught? So what? You ever go fishing? You ever catch ALL the fish? You broke the rules, you got in trouble. Don't want to get in trouble? Don't break the rules. What does it matter what other people did?

At least OP was responsible enough to stay at work and not take advantage of vetoing paid for not being there. And what's wrong with streaming videos? Where do you work OP?
