Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Office life sucks
Today, I was supposed to start a new job. I had accepted a new position with a different company three weeks ago, and gave my notice. At the time, I even trained my replacement. Today, I found out that my new work doesn't need me anymore. So, I'm unemployed. FML
No Job
Prairieville, United States
Today, I was supposed to start my new job. I had forgotten I had a doctor's appointment, so I called work early and told them I wouldn't be able to start until tomorrow. My boss then terminated my employment. I got fired before I even started. FML

Out of the frying pan
Today, after I got hired on at a new job with perfect hours and pay, worked my two-week notice at my old job, now one week into new job, they let me go because they’re overstaffed and I’m the newest hire. FML

Today, it was the first day of my new job. It was also the last day of my new job. I got a call immediately after finishing my shift to be told the company has "decided to go in a different direction" and will no longer be needing my services. FML

Today, I was laid off from my job as a manager. After cleaning out my office, I began clearing my computer. I received an email from HR announcing a job position that opened up. Too bad it was for my job. FML

Hello, Goodbye
Today, I left my job, fulfilling my one month's notice after receiving a job offer from a much better-paying role. After saying goodbye to everyone, I left the building. Not two minutes later, the company who was offering the new job called to say they'd changed their minds, and there was now no longer a job on offer. FML

Maybe you can try and reapply for your previous job again if you don't mind. As long as you did the quitting process right they shouldn't have a problem rehiring you if they still have the position open

Hopefully you didn't resign too messily, and maybe you can ask for your job back, bit humiliating but you need one

I basically had the same thing happen to me last year...except I worked 29 days. Not long enough to collect..I lost almost everything

Actually, if you live in the States, even if you lose a job that you haven't worked at long enough to qualify for unemployment, they will go back to your previous job and get it from them. Happened to me-I was downsized a month after I started and still got unemployment because I had been at my previous job (also known as the Hell Mouth) for three years. Probably unprofessional of me but I had to smile at that one-kind of like I got to say a final "**** you" lol.
