Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I was fired. For "lack of attention to details", specifically spelling errors. My now ex-boss misspelled the name of his own company on my severance agreement. FML

Today, I was checking my schedule online and noticed that I wasn't scheduled for any shifts next week. Not thinking it was a big deal, I called HR to get it corrected, only to find out I was laid off and they "forgot" to tell me. FML

Today, I was laid off from my job as a manager. After cleaning out my office, I began clearing my computer. I received an email from HR announcing a job position that opened up. Too bad it was for my job. FML

Today, I was at work when a co-worker decided it would be funny to email me from my boss's computer to tell me I had been laid off. It wasn't funny when I was fired for real after "skipping work without giving notice." FML

Today, I got an e-mail regarding an IT support job I applied to. The e-mail had numerous formatting errors due to bad code, and typos all over the place. It said I wasn't qualified for the job. FML

Today, I found out that I'm not getting a new position I applied for at my company. Now, I have to continue working for my boss, who recently severely criticized my spelling in my reports, only they weren't my reports, and when I pointed this out, she simply never responded. FML

Today, my boss sent me some application forms to check over. After I spell-checked them and returned them, I found out they're going to be used to hire someone to replace me. FML

Make your mind up
Today, when I got to work, I found out that I was being laid off. Two hours later, I found out my boss had my name on the wrong list. I was elated. I went to lunch, but on the way back was rear-ended, in the rain. I was an hour and a half late getting back to work. I was fired upon returning. FML

Meanwhile, at Twitter HQ… (possibly)
Today, I found out I'm being laid off. Because I'm the only person at this company who knows how to process a layoff in our HR system, I get to have the pleasure of laying myself off. FML

Good thing you caught that Dave or you would have been corrected as soon as jr high let out. You might luck out and get some sage advice anyway. ;)

yeah, I'm sorry but you think your boss(es) could try to be superior in some way shape or form and use spell check at least. I got an email from my DM saying this and that about counterfeit bills being used recently only to find out he can't spell counterfeit...or circulation... Get on with the job hunt buddy and GL!!

Today I read something on fml that really belongs on MLIA. Seriously is anybody else getting really tired of these really stupid "fml's?"

Why does it belong on MLIA? I think it's a pretty shitty thing to happen to anyone.

better than being laid off via SMS. There are countries in the world where that is legal and I live in one! :D
