Today, while working at McDonald's, I was pulled into the manager's office and informed that I'd been caught stealing money from the safe. When I told them to show me the security footage, they refused and fired me on the spot. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got fired from my part-time job, because I insisted on keeping my phone in my pocket and never using it, instead of putting it in locker without a lock or security camera, that anyone can go through. The manager found out by searching my locker for the past 3 weeks. Ironic. FML
Today, I had a job interview at Walmart. They showed a video of me stealing. FML
Today, I was robbed while working overnight at the gas station. They demanded I give them all the cash in the register. Seeing they were armed, I was reduced to tears and complied. They mocked me and took a video with their cellphone. When I told my boss, he promptly fired me for not “fighting back.” FML
Today, I was fired from my job at a local family-ran restaurant. The Reason? The owner's daughter has been stealing money from the register little by little and has blamed me for all the lost money. The boss is still convinced it's me, though, because his daughter would "never tell a lie". FML
Today, my sister got me in deep trouble at the store I worked security for. She "dropped by to say hi" and stole a bunch of things when I wasn't looking. I wasn't arrested, due to lack of any evidence. But my boss didn't care about evidence and fired me anyway. FML
Today, I was getting lunch at a fast food restaurant. My boss was in front of me, and in order to get on his good side I offered to pay. Instead, I got fired because I guess my boss assumed I was making fun of his salary, which I knew nothing about. FML
Today, I got fired from my job because I closed the store 84 seconds early. They found out because the state manager was sitting across the street with binoculars watching me. FML
Today, I walked to my local McDonald's. I spent the last 7 dollars I had on my meal. As I began to walk back to my dorm, I was mugged. I explained to them I had no money, so they stole my food. FML
Today, my boss fired me by locking me out of my workplace after I went out to throw out the trash. FML
Today, I got fired from my job. I caught a customer taking pictures up my skirt, and my boss fired me for calling the police and "making a big deal out of it". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think you can take legal action on this.

Even in an at-will state, claiming theft as a reason without proof still constitutes unlawful termination, as well as fraud.

OK it's not an FML if you can actively do something about it. This is obviously illegal, get off FML and DO something. Also, FAKE

Easy Peasy, the manager covered his theft. Take it up the corporate ladder. You did want to be manager?

You should get a lawyer and sue. How can they claim you were stealing and refuse to show the footage?

Legal action, indeed. Also if that's how they treat staff, not worth working there anyways.

Sounds like the work environment is as crappy as the food.

I would have simply called the police. Call their bluff.

honestly the same thing happened to me. But they said it was out of the register.

they can't do that. They have to provide proof if they have accused you of a felony
