Today, I was fired from my catering job for pointing out the unsafe food conditions. I'm studying food safety in college. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was fired from the restaurant I work at because I missed my shift. I missed it because I was in the hospital for food poisoning from the meal I ate at work last night. FML
Today, I was fired from my job as a waitress, all because someone complained there was too much seasoning in their food. As I said, I'm a waitress. This happened the same week I was hired. FML
Today, after 8 months of being belittled and treated like trash at my job as a prep cook in a high-end kitchen, I stood up for myself to the line cooks. Not only did everyone laugh at me, I got fired for causing a scene during service and insubordination. FML
Today I was fired from my job. They fired me because they couldn't work around my college schedule. The only reason they hired me was because they were looking for college students and without a job I can't go back to school. FML
Today, I was out having a nice dinner to celebrate being hired for a job I was really excited for after two places didn't work out in a year. In the middle of dinner, I got an email from the director informing me that the school has to close due to lead levels in the building. FML
Today, I was fired without warning from my job because I was not consulting my boss about things like washing dishes and throwing away garbage. Basically, I was fired for being too good at my job. FML
Today, I was preparing a customer's meal in my restaurant's kitchen, when I choked on my own saliva and went into a coughing fit. The head chef, who's always hated my guts, accused me of trying to hock a loogie into the meal and fired me on the spot. FML
Today, I was training for my new job at a restaurant. As part of training, they give you free food so you know what to recommend, and the dish I got was really good. Eight hours later I saw it again while I was puking. I got food poisoning from my own workplace. FML
Today, at my dining job, my boss told me the food was "technically illegal to serve," air quotes and all. FML
Today, I got fired from my job as a seafood manager because an entire wedding group came in and started yelling at me, saying the shrimp was horrible and I ruined their wedding. They showed me the leftovers; they never cooked them. They fed raw shrimp at a wedding dinner party. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Look on the bright side. If you get a job at the FDA you can close down that shitty company...

Time to call the health department. You may also have a good case for unlawful termination.

**** your life for choosing what sounds like a very boring major that can only lead to one job - restaurant health and safety inspector, which also sounds bad

Why cry? (1) call the health inspector in on them (2) sue for unlawful unemployment or bargain to get your job back by threatening to call the health inspector if things don't change Thanks OP for making it safer for all of us to eat outside of our homes. FYL indeed, but you have leverage, use it.

#41 did u NOT read the FML properly. She pointed out an UNSAFE food. She friggen saved someone from getting seriously ill. Thank you OP, and who wants to work at a place where they like making people seriously ill.

Uhm, wow, okay, YES, I did read the FML correctly, but she's not the FDA, she doesn't work for the health department, she works at a catering service and if you say something wrong you'll get fired. That's life.

just because you dont work for the FDA, does not mean that you cannot judge unsafe conditions in a work environment. and that is bull that you got fired for that. think about where you go to eat, you better hope that there is someone that would stand up if they were serving food sub par and if they saved you from eating food that could make you sick, i bet damn well that you wouldnt want them to be fired because the boss is a cheap asshole. common!!

also the FDA has no jurisdiction in Ireland. I've been fired for calling the health dept because my boss refused to throw away rotten meat after I confronted him about it. don't care, I did the right thing.
