Today, I got fired. A woman, who'd been ignoring me at the workplace, told me I wasn't friendly enough. She turned out to be the manager. Apparently, she likes to test the new hires by being extremely cold and unwelcome. She never even introduced herself. Also, it only pays 70% of the minimum wage. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was fired from a job I didn't have. The manager in charge of calling me to tell me if I got the job never called, and never called me back when I left messages. The only time he called me was to fire me for not coming to orientation, which, by the way, he never called to tell me about. FML
Today, my boss called me into her office to tell me I needed to mind my own business and not question everything my newest co-worker does. Yesterday, I stopped the new girl from giving $6,000 to the wrong person. I was fired on the spot. The new girl was promoted into my job. FML
Today, the manager that hired me and worked for years to inspire and connect her staff was laid to rest. Hours before the funeral, her replacement told me he wanted my two weeks notice on his desk tonight. I've been a model employee, he just doesn't like me. FML
Today, I got fired. Not because of anything I did, but because my best friend, who'd I'd gotten hired, stood up for herself when both the owner's wife and daughter became disrespectful professionally. She then quit and got a job with a competitor. They started looking at her LinkedIn. Two weeks later, I get canned. FML
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, at work one of my co-worker was oddly nice to me; and my boss, who usually always says hi to me, didn't look or speak to me. Later that day I found out that I was going to be fired, not because my boss told me but because my picture was missing from the wall of employees. 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 found out my "nice" boss was only nice to me for my first month. She's now started yelling at me for every little thing. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, after a month at my new job, my boss fired me because I didn't have enough experience. She hired me with full knowledge of this fact. FML

Oh, so you're only friendly to people who can do things for you? You should be friendly to everyone, you transactional piece of shit! Sounds like a fair test for a sub-minimum wage job. The work must be awesome for the wage scale be a race to the bottom.

Grounds for wrongful firing in most places buuut I'm guessing you're not in one of those places :(

how did she get away with paying less than minimum wage?

could be other monetary "benefits" that fall into a weird loophole of the laws depending on the job title and business. Still probably wouldn't stand up in court and if it is an easy legal win most likely a pro-Bono type of thing as well.

Pro-Bono? What's the opposite of pro-Bono? Pro-The-Edge?

I’m sure it would only get worse from there. Make sure you collect your last paycheck, get a new job and don’t look back.

As practice shows, the lower the salary, the more the authorities go crazy
