The blame game

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

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

He isn't fit to be a boss, if he can't take responsibility for his own failures, he's going to get fired sooner or later.

I'm sorry OP. If they sign your payroll, you are basically their bitch it seems. I hope you find work soon.

Yeah that business won't be around long. Any good leader knows it isn't the underling, it is the guy in charge that's to blame for poor performance. Thank your lucky stars you got canned. That company will go bad soon enough with idiots like that in charge.

Shouldn't it be "pawned off"?

Almost all the work related FMLs are issues covered by the employment laws of most countries. If you're too idle to pursue justice on the issue either through legal or internal methods it's your own fault.

I was actually wondering something along these lines too. So either they're too lazy (like you say), or there is more to it...

well tell who ever fired you that it was your boss messed up.

Assholes like this all over the place, sad part is the people he convinced should know your boss approves your work.....so he is still responsible. Accountability is dead these days

That's a but manipulative...

shit rolls down hill.

Hope you found a new job.
