Today, was my first day back at work since my wife got breast cancer. I come in and see some people with pink slips and frowns. When I get to my desk I find a pink slip, I go up to my boss and start to curse him out for firing me. Only to find out my pink slip was a fundraiser for my wife. FML

You shouldn't curse your boss out like that even if he did fire you. You lose any recommendation he could give you.

No I totally agree with OP. He thought he was being fired and he needed his job to pay his wife's medical bills. Damn right, OP
