Today, my boss told me she had a nightmare where her life depended on me, and I let her die. Now I'm ridiculously paranoid that I'm going to get fired at any second. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at my new job at a funeral home, my boss threatened to fire me if I didn't "lighten the hell up" while dealing with our grieving clients. FML
Today, my spineless shitwhip of a boss made me go fire a notoriously abusive employee. I had to act like firing him was my decision, even though I'm the secretary. Now I get to live in constant fear that the guy was serious when he threatened to find out where I live and kill me. FML
Today, my boss yet again said she was "literally dying", after she watched a funny video online. Long story short, I'm now on her shitlist because I couldn't help but point out that she clearly wasn't dying, and that her ranting was distracting me from doing actual work. FML
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, my boss made me give a presentation to several senior company officials about the serious financial losses our division has made this year. Barely an hour later, my boss had palmed all the blame off onto me and gotten me fired. FML
Today, after waking up in a panic because I was running late for work again, I realized I was fired for that exact reason the day before. FML
Today, I shouldn't have told my boss that I was interested in management. She now throws any problem she doesn't want to solve at me and either gets mad when I can't work it out or takes credit when I do. FML
Today, my coworker has once again called in and asked me to cover her shift. She does this for every single one of her shifts, and my boss told me that if I don’t cover it, I’ll be fired. I used to have a life, but not anymore. FML
Today, after my boss thanked me for being so "reliable" all the time, I confessed to her that I have really bad anxiety, which has given me a crippling fear of disappointing her and ending up jobless. Even after reassuring me that she would never do that, the feeling is still there. I think I need therapy. FML
Today, I was supposed to have a therapy session for my anxiety about work, but it got cancelled. My boss has been berating me for 2 weeks about my performance as a newbie. I feel like she doesn't like me and it's messing with my work even more. I'm dreading going to work tomorrow with the same problem. I can't get fired again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Because what you do in other people's dreams is completely in your control.

Maybe she needs to be reminded of the dream you had of where her life depended on you and you didn't let her die, instead you saved her ass!

Today I dreamed that my life depended on one of my employees and he let me down. I have decided to fire him because I feel I can't depend on hin. F his life.

I can't see anyone firing an employee over a dream.

If you can't see that, then you have not spent nearly enough time here on FML.

I did read somewhere that dying in your dreams meant the end of something in your actual life. Not trying to be pessimistic or anything...

Did she give you that look that said "I control your life now bitch"

Maybe that dream actually means something good, if you see "her life" as a metaphor of "the success of the company". Maybe the meaning is that she think you are a very good employee, that the success of the company is due to your work, and that her worst nightmare would be your resignation.
