Today, my old boss stiffed me on a large sum of money he owes me. I tried to contact him and point out that he legally owes me the money, but he won't answer his texts or his phone, and the managers say he changes the subject whenever they bring it up. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I received a phone call from my old boss asking me why I wasn't at work, to which I responded, "Because you fired me yesterday." He didn't say anything, and hung up. FML
Today, after not receiving my paycheck for over a month, I confronted my boss about it. His response? "You still work here?" FML
Today, my old boss is such an arsehole that not only did he fire me last week, he completely forgot about firing me and when he saw me in the shop as a customer, he yelled at me for being late and out of uniform. I swear his mother didn’t birth him, she shat him out the other hole. FML
Today, my former boss called to bitch me out for some computer issue he emailed me to fix three days ago. I quit my job there 7 months ago, and I had to hand my phone to my new manager to convince my old boss I really did quit and wasn’t just avoiding fixing the computer problem. Asshole. FML
Today, my boss called me, furious about how I "never answer my phone", especially when important clients are trying to reach me, and how unprofessional I am. I make very sure to never miss any calls, my boss just keeps giving out the wrong number to people. FML
Today, my ex-boss still owes me almost 900€. I just paid another 150€ to have a lawyer tell me that, yes, the law is clearly on my side but no, I will most likely not win in court because I don't have hard proof. I just paid money to be told I won't be getting the money I'm owed. FML
Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML
Today, my boss mistakenly drunk-texted me and was talking shit about me. FML
Today, my boss reprimanded me for a huge screw-up that he was responsible for. FML
Today, like every day, my boss was complaining about something or other, but this time it was work that I knew he'd done himself, and he still blamed me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think you can go ahead and sue without people freaking out and saying everyone sues too much. It's justified

If it's legal money he owes you and he won't pay you, you can sue him. That's the best option in my opinion

Go on Judge Judy. She'll straighten that right up.

As you said, he legally owes the money. This isn't one of those stupid situations where it can be settled mutually, just sue his sorry ass and be on with it

Have him summoned to a small claims court.

He won't get away with changing the subject if you take him to court. Threaten a lawsuit: guarantee he'll cough up the owed money quickly.

Sue the goddamn son of a bitch! Get a lawyer, like Phoenix Wright... nah, he only does murder cases... and not real... whatever, get a lawyer anyway, take the matter to court and force him to pay you what he owes, and how about double for being such a jackass about it?
