Today, a soon-to-be-ex co-worker flew into a rage when she saw she wasn't on the schedule for next week. The boss told her it's because she quit. She reminded the boss she wants to keep working part-time. My new job is inventing tasks for her to do to keep her calm. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I quit my job after two years. Now I have my crazy boss sitting out in front of my house, telling me she wants to work things out. She's been there all day. FML
Today, my boss continued to orchestrate behind the scenes with my colleagues to make me look bad for her lack of organization. Then she showed up 10 minutes late to a meeting, shared that she needed a vacation, and realized that she needed to micromanage less. I've been asking her to make that change for months. FML
Today, my ex got mad at me because I made her shut up. She started a new job six months ago in sales, and all she does in the time we have to work in a team as volunteers is whine about her customers. She even started treating us (other volunteers) like her customers, to the point that we feel uncomfortable. FML
Today, I started a new job. After being trained on several obscure computer programs I'm expected to use in just one day, my new boss informed me she's going on a week long vacation starting tomorrow. She's the only other person who knows how this program runs. FML
Today, my boss explained that the company will be letting me go. She got so upset that she couldn't leave her office and I had to console her. I had to make her feel less sad for laying me off. FML
Today, I shouldn't have told my boss that I was interested in management. She now throws any problem she doesn't want to solve at me and either gets mad when I can't work it out or takes credit when I do. FML
Today, I went into my former workplace. While there, an ex-coworker told me that after I quit, they split my position into two separate jobs. When I worked there, my boss had told me to suck it up whenever I said there was too much work for just one person. FML
Today, my boss reprimanded me for not finishing my work on time. Yesterday, she cut an hour from my schedule every day until further notice. FML
Today, my boss got mad at me because I told her that I wouldn't be able to work two days out of the week, due to college classes. She then cut back my hours so much that I now only work one day a week. I got the job in the first place to pay for my college classes. FML
Today, I was told I would also be covering some of my boss's shifts next week. She gets to go on a vacation to Europe with the bonus we earned her last year. That's why she was tightening our deadlines to the point where some of the employees had to hire babysitters for their children so we could stay at work. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Have her write out all of the digits of pi. That will keep her busy forever.

Awe, where's the fun in that? This is one of those situations where OP should make her file a ton of paperwork in a certain order. When she's nearly completed it, OP should change how it should be filed. That game could last for weeks, if not months. If she's smart, OP can assign all the annoying projects to her haha.

Ask her to find you a long weight, she'll be gone for days. Good luck OP, she sounds like a treat.

One of her tasks should be to go see a therapist

She sounds like a ********. Who forgets they've quit.

...A ********? Though it appears to me the boss is at fault here, not the worker.

How the hell is it boss to blame when she's the one who quit?

she didn't forget that she quit, she's kind of abusing the power she clearly knows she has over the boss

She REMINDED him she wants to keep working part-time. That means that she told him before... It's pretty obvious it's his fault.

Sounds like the boss probably shouldn't have taken her red stapler away.

I asked for no Superbad in my Office Space. No Superbad! But there is clearly Superbad in my Office Space. I will take my comments to a competing website!

And now your job has become easier: you have new personal slave/assistant.

I think your boss should have said "No, sorry, you already quit. If you would like a job- consider putting in an application, or just have a nice day" There is no reason that op should have to make up stuff for her to do as I am sure that op has his own job to do.

"She reminded the boss" about the part time. She didn't quit, she asked to be put part time and it seems the boss forgot >_>
