Today, I actually had to attend court for an unfair dismissal claim. The woman I fired had an attendance record of 70%, money is still missing from petty cash, and she was twice caught using a company laptop for online gambling, yet somehow it still made it to a courtroom as “unfair”. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boss accused me of submitting fraudulent overtime claims. I proceeded to show him security footage of me at my desk for sometimes 18 hours a day, keeping the business from imploding. He then claimed he doesn’t actually have enough money in the accounts to pay me everything I’m owed. FML
Today, I was scheduled to fill in at the customer service counter where I work. Today was also the day that I allegedly accused a customer of being a thief, sold her a fraudulent money order, and will be sued for defamation of character. FML
Today, I got fired from work. Why? I finally took a stand for myself and confronted my coworker of writing things up in my name for herself, and it getting deducted from my check. So she went to the manager and accused me of sexual harassment. FML
Today, I was fired for not attending a mandatory meeting. I confronted my boss and told her I never heard anything about it, she told me that daily reminders had been sent out via email for weeks. She then discovered that she failed to enter my email address in the system. I was still fired. FML
Today, a furious woman stormed into my job, demanding to know why I fired her precious baby boy. I explained that watching porn on the clock is grounds for termination. She screamed that I was lying about him and that she’ll see me in court for slandering him. I had to call the cops to make her leave. FML
Today, I got a call from work stating that my employment was being terminated. This was after being suspended while they investigated my sexual harassment claim. Their reason for firing me: misuse of company time. Yes, I suppose reporting being sexually harassed is a huge waste of time. FML
Today, I returned to work after taking two days off to find I'd been fired. Why? For not being at work on those two days. Everything was agreed in writing, all trace of which has mysteriously vanished. I can't work until HR sorts it out, and nobody can tell me how long that'll take. FML
Today, it was my first day on a £600 a week job. I was fired for being 10 minutes late. FML
Today, I was promoted as an auditor at an insurance company. After finding 9 compliance violations and over $15,000 returned incorrectly, I reported them to my manager. She blamed me for all the mistakes and fired me. These mistakes happened two years before I was employed with the company. FML
Today, I was dismissed from my job for my poor absence record. I'd not received any formal warnings, and was dismissed on the spot. My absences were because of my disability. He didn't even ask for medical records. FML

As long as you had the supporting evidence, your side should have won easily.

Unfair dismissal my ass. She's lucky she was merely dismissed and not charged criminally.

Sounds like you discriminated against her because she's interesting. An organization full of dull, rule-following drones will rot. If you win your case, you'll lose in the long run.

Well isn't she just the brightest bulb in the gd Disney light parade /s It sounds like you haven't taken legal action yet so all she has done is open the floodgates for you to go absolutely ham on her in criminal court (depending on how much you can prove she stole from petty cash of course)

The judge will ask questions such as: Did she have access to petty cash? If yes, Why did she have access to petty cash in the first place? Was this part of her job description? How do you know she stole from petty cash? Is there video of her taking from petty cash and if it was part of her job description, how do you know she took more than she was allowed to give out? If she was not allowed to have access to petty cash, how did she gain access? Was there a police report filed? If yes, what does the police report say? and if you suspected her of stealing what actions did you do to revoke that access? If he doesn’t like those answers the case is going to be thrown out.
