Today, it was my first day of work at my new job. I got dressed and arrived early, only to find out that the store had closed due to a power outage. Then I found out that the person who'd hired me had totally forgotten about hiring me anyway. FML

How do they look for people and then forget they found someone? Hope you still got the job and weren't dropped when they forgot.

Call B/S. As in Australia you have to sign paperwork and give details when hired and before starting a job. So they can’t have just “forgot”

Correct but from owning a business in Perth Australia. And the way employment works and the information that needs to be provided for a job what this person is saying is false as they would have needed a TFN bank details and super plus sign a government piece of paper which they would be given a carbon copy off to even get the job

my boss once forgot he hired a person and tried to have security kick the poor guy out when he ran into him a few weeks later. He continued refusing to believe until he was shown his own handwriting and signature on the guy's job interview forms.
