Today, I finally have a job I love with amazing people I call family and a fantastic boss. I've been here 8 months, and I'm doing a great job, I feel like I could work here forever! My most recent project? Printing our "Store closing sale" signs for liquidation. We permanently close in 7 weeks. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got a phone call from my boss, who'd hired me after two months of waiting and begging for this position. A week into the job, the company is closing our store. FML
Today, at the job I've had for eight years, I finally got the raise I was supposed to get a year ago. One hour later I found out the store was closing and we were all out of a job in two weeks. FML
Today, I got a badly-needed job at a local discount store. After being hired, I found out I'm to help with the soon-to-begin store closing sale, and I'll be jobless again after 3 months. FML
Today, I started an awesome job with competitive pay. I also found out that the place is closing its doors in June. FML
Today, I found out that a co-worker has been promoted to Store Manager. She has been here for less than 6 months, and I have been with the company for 10 years. Guess who has been training her for the last 6 months. FML
Today, the store I work at got shut down and I got let go. Three days ago I got a promotion and a raise. FML
Today, I finally got a job after nearly two years of unemployment. My boss is amazing, my coworkers are fun and helpful, and the pay is great. There's just one issue: it seems as though nothing can change the fact that I simply do not enjoy the job itself, even though I really thought I would. FML
Today, I gave my two weeks notice at work. My boss sighed with relief and muttered, "Thank God." FML
Today, I was told I was being fired from my job after "5 months for poor performance." I helped lead my team to the highest possible success they’ve had the last 4 years. FML
Today, I received the "employee of the month" title from the job I was fired from last week. FML

"Store Closing. Can no longer afford lawsuits caused by one overly-affectionate worker going around, hugging customers, and calling them family."

I'm so sorry. I feel like for a lot of people the worst part of their routine is the "work" aspect. To have that as a large joy in your life and then soon to be taken away must feel horrible. I hope you take care and best of luck for the future, OP.

That sucks, but a good life lesson: Nothing lasts forever.

Maybe its closing because you're so cheery and the others are depressed.

Unlike the usual, this is actually sad, instead of funny.

Maybe you, your amazing coworkers and your fantastic boss can all agree to hang out with each other for free, not doing anything of commercial value. The positive energy and warm feelings will be so worth it!

Absolutely! I have inherited a family, and one very amazing and dear friend from this job. It's not the end of us!

Yay! Maybe if you end your sign with "...JKJK!" or "...NOT!" business will pick up and your dream will go on!
