Today, I was fired for having a haircut that was 'inappropriate for the workplace'. I have alopecia. My boss told me to stop making up excuses. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I overheard my boss stressing out over finding a replacement for me. I didn't know I was leaving. FML
Today, I almost got fired from work because a customer complained that I "threw up gang signs" at him. I was blocking the sun from my eyes. FML
Today, my company was having a huge party so I went to work dressed in my best outfit. During lunch break, my boss said to me, "You really missed out on something yesterday, it was great fun!" FML
Today, my boss fired me for being "too morally ambiguous". I work at a bagel shop and had told a customer that I was indifferent towards cream cheese. FML
Today, I found out that mishearing my boss and laughing at what I thought he said can make him think I'm high and nearly force me to submit to a drug test. FML
Today, my family took me to a wig store saying I wouldn't feel so insecure about being bald because of my chemo treatments. When I told them I accepted myself and didn't want a wig, they came out and told me THEY couldn't accept it. My own family is embarrassed of me over something I can't control. FML
Today, I took my printer to work because the one in my office is broken. When I tried to leave, my boss stopped me and accused me of stealing it from the office. Nobody would believe me when I explained. Now my boss has a new printer. FML
Today, I went to ask my boss for a raise. Turns out they are firing 35 people. I wasn't on the list until I asked for a raise. FML
Today, my boss admitted that he seriously regrets hiring me, but can't really do anything about it because that would make the senior management question his judgment, making him look bad. So he's just 'putting up' with me. FML
Today, I was at work laminating a large photo. While I was doing this, I had a sudden itch on my nut sack. So I quickly scratched it away. When the customer came to pick up the print, I noticed that one of my pubic hairs had laminated itself on the cheek of the woman in the photograph. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

you need to get some free legal advice, just call any lawyer in the phonebook and ask for a consultation. you are a new client, so the first 30 min is free.

Alopecia is the universe's way of telling you that you should be bald. Shave your head and hope that you don't have a raisin scalp.

YDI for being a hypochondriac, for being employed, for having poor taste in haircuts, and for even having hair at all.

Also, he deserves it for having a head in which hair can grown.

Its not a disease the just goes away like a cold, Its thought to be genetic because it tends to show in families, but the genes havnt been isolated yet. Op go to the doc and see if you can try steriod injections or a steriod cream on the hair loss. If all else fails you can always shave it or get a wig. Still your boss needs a kick in the pants for firing you, unless it was based on your performance as an employee.

i say you sneak up on your boss when he(or she)'s not looking, and cut random bald patches into his hair, so he can see how it feels, the insensitive *******! to be honest, you're better off not working in a place that doesn't even recognize that you have a disease. (to the people saying they should wear a wig) why should you have to wear a wig? covering up your disease just so other people can look at something they find 'aesthetically pleasing' is pointless, it's not your fault you have alopecia :@. definitely sue, im pretty sure that counts as discrimination or something? they shouldn't be able to fire you for something you have no control over, like alopecia. good luck, i hope your alopecia gets better, such a shame :/
