Today, I was called into the office and suspended due to allegations made by a coworker of poor work performance. Yesterday, I received a certificate praising my work performance. I might be dismissed at any moment. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a meeting with HR that resulted in me being dismissed for poor performance. I was confused because up until that point, my line manager had said my performance was exemplary. Turns out it wasn't, and he didn't tell me because he didn't want me to be stressed. FML
Today, I got written up at work over false accusations that I didn't do some safety tasks. The same tasks that were done before I had even arrived. FML
Today, I was told I was being fired from my job after "5 months for poor performance." I helped lead my team to the highest possible success they’ve had the last 4 years. 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 received a two-page letter/rant from my boss notifying me of my imminent dismissal, based on issues such as me "speaking in a suppressed voice." FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. 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 told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, I had to go to work on my day off to suspend someone. Afterwards, I got a call saying I can't suspend the person in question because the supervisor who told me to suspend them was wrong. FML
Today, I found out people are suspicious of me at work because I do a good job. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Wait - were you accused of poor performance by a co-worker? Or did a poorly-performing co-worker make some other type of allegation against you? Sentence structure matters.

Allegations of poor performace even though you have proof of recent praise for your work? They are up to something - tbh your co worker could just be a trouble maker (I've know a few of those) or someone could be after your job.

What type of allegation ? Even if you are better than him/her your job, if you have been mistreating him/her, they have the right to report you. If the accusations are rubbish, ask for proof

The individual is known to report others due to personal dislike. Unfortunately management does nothing about it.

don't you have proof saying otherwise though? from someone presumably higher up in your company anyway

A lazy coworker made allegations against me while I did 3/4 of the work during the shift.

They were accused of poor work performance by a co-worker. So does context.

If you typed up your own certificate, that's not going to help much, plus it's just sad.

The certificate was awarded by other coworkers, nothing to do with me.

Suspended due to an ‘allegation’ of poor performance, that they didn’t request proof for? Talk to HR, consider suing. Because suspension stays on your record

I have involved legal advice and an outside agency, yeah.

I would talk to HR to find out what you actually did poor performance on. Hopefully our are able to show that you didn’t do it poorly

you've got the certificate so you thought might as well start slacking

I'm getting the feeling you're not telling the whole story.

Essentially I worked as usual but this coworker [known to slander others] decided to cut at my reputation due to envy. Management does nothing.

Slap the certificate down on the table and tell them to stop playing games because the state labor board doesn't like businesses that play games.
