Today, a customer came in to the Pizza store where I work and complained that the food they had purchased had a strand of black hair in it. After some deliberation, my boss decided to fire me. He is the only staff member there with black hair. I shaved my hair 2 weeks ago. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I work at a food joint as a chef, and a customer found a long strand of hair in her food. The manager blamed me, even though I'm bald. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant for lunch. I began to eat when I noticed a blond hair in my food. When that happened, I went up to the counter and began complaining about their hygiene. When the manager insisted no one that works there had long blond hair, I realized that it was my hair. FML
Today, I was fired from my job because I would "scare" the customers. Two days ago, a coworker spilled fry oil onto the grill, causing flames to singe my eyebrows and the front of my hair off. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I look like her ex-boyfriend. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I "didn't get the right kind of coffee beans." FML
Today, I arrived at the pizza place I work at to find that I'd been fired. Apparently, the class stoner came in last night and not only demanded a free pizza, but also claimed that I always gave him one. I've never talked to this kid in my life, but my boss still doesn't believe me. FML
Today, I'm broke and just started working in a restaurant at a luxury hotel. On my first day, the director had told me to get rid of my blue dyed hair. Back at work with a new fresh 57€ cut and no blue in sight, he saw me. I have some blonde streaks in the back, and if I don't get rid of them within a week, I'm fired. FML
Today, my boss threatened to fire me for racism after I refused to hire a black woman. I didn't hire her because she came to the interview wearing what was basically a bikini and she was covered in tattoos depicting lewd sex acts. 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, my boss called me into his office. I thought I was getting promoted because my sales had been really high lately. My boss shut his door behind me and asked me if I could comb his hair with a lice comb to get rid of his lice. I had to do it to keep my job. FML

Sounds like you're better off now, you can get a new boss who isn't such a d*ck. Win in disguise?

If this is a large company, complain to corporate or hr or whatever. I'm sure they can get you your job back.

Is your boss the cook? that´s the only explanation I have. Otherwise it maybe was the costumor´s hair. but it´s ridiculous.

The question is... does this person WANT their job back?

Complain about wrongful firing, indeed! #15: Um, most people say that. Are you still one of those assholes who just calls people "retarded" instead? I don't think it's the rest of us who sound like children!

that doesn't even make sense to fire you - you should sue him.

Well, it is your job to make sure the food looks ok before it is served. If it was a bug sitting on top of the food would you fire the bug?

This sucks, and your boss is obviously a dick. I find it hard to believe that someone would get fired for one hair in someone's food, even if it wasn't obvious that it couldn't be theirs. But to those saying sue...seriously? It was his job at a PIZZA place. Cut your losses and move on.

That sucks, but your boss is an a-hole and you'll be better off in the long run. To those that say sue the place, most states have "at will" employment laws, meaning the employer can let someone go for little or no cause. Unless you can prove you were discriminated againtst, you probably have little or no case.

I'd still say sue him. Unless you want nothing to do with the d*ck head.
