Today, after a long couple of months working non-stop, I finally got someone to cover my shift. Turns out she was joking, and when I didn't show up for work, I was fired. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after finally getting a job offer after months of unemployment, I found out that the person who was going to hire me got fired. Which means I'm not getting the job. FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, while on vacation, I got fired for not working a shift I wasn't scheduled for. Even after texting my boss a copy of my vacation approval letter, she still fired me. FML
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, I went into work to change a shift I was unable to work. I phoned the first person on the employee sheet and they promptly answer by saying, "You still work here? I thought the manager fired you." I was fired last week and have been showing up for shifts without anybody noticing. FML
Today, I was called to be told I'm fired for not showing up for my shift. I guess she didn't check her voice message to see that I gave birth last night. FML
Today, after a month at my new job, my boss fired me because I didn't have enough experience. She hired me with full knowledge of this fact. FML
Today, I got fired from my dream job. I found out today that the girl who trained me lied and taught me how to do things wrong, so that when she got back from maternity leave, she could get me fired and take her job back. My new coworkers were in on her plan from the beginning. FML
Today, I was fired from a job I didn't have. The manager in charge of calling me to tell me if I got the job never called, and never called me back when I left messages. The only time he called me was to fire me for not coming to orientation, which, by the way, he never called to tell me about. FML

That's why where I worked, we always had to let our boss know when the shifts were changed.

I hope you let your boss know that your co-worker was supposed to cover the shift. If you didn't let them know, they won't care. Unfortunately that's what happens to many people when you ask them to switch shift, don't tell manager for approval.

did you not tell your boss that she agreed to cover? where I work we text our boss when we switch shifts so its on the other person if they don't show

At old job I would tell my manger I couldn't work a day & she just tell me to find someone to cover your shift then make a note of it. I tend to ask someone who was working that day so the can verbal agree in front of my manger. If they don't show up its not my problem.
