Today, for the first time since I can remember, I went in to work feeling positive, and that I could make good things happen. At the end of the day, my employment was terminated. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I came into work feeling good about myself and my upcoming plans. I left before noon with a box of my belongings and uncertainty about my future, having been suddenly laid off. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, I was fired on my second day of work after a year and a half of unemployment. Apparently, my "tendency to solve problems instead of just accepting them made the other workers uneasy". 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, my employer fired me, less than a week before I could become permanent full-time staff. FML
Today, I was enjoying my first vacation day in 2 years. My boss then called me to come in, saying it was an emergency. I got to work and got fired. Yes, my boss made me come in just to fire me. FML
Today, I was let go from my job for not being able to come into work early. FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, I found out that I can no longer work at my dream job because of their financial status. And of course, just now that I was finally beginning to be happy with my life, something like this naturally had to happen. FML
Today, I finally started my first job. I also lost it, for being too "enthusiastic" and making my fellow employees look lazy. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

A little too late but you get a gold star for getting there! ⭐️

If you so rarely felt good going to work, maybe you will be better off with a different job anyway.

OP are you the unstable, former military, gun nut that the employee had to fire above?? "COINCIDENCE MUCH"

23, the dude above is from Indonesia. This guy is from the US, so no, he isn't the same dude. But it was a big coincidence :P

It isn't stated that OP did a good deed... OP simply had a positive attitude, and that he COULD make good things happen.

hopefully you're not the unstable former military gun nut psycho employee?

No good deed goes unpunished. Sorry OP, good luck on your search for a new job.

Benefit in California is that you'll get unemployment if you didn't do anything negligent. Good luck

That's seriously unfortunate. Goodluck in finding employment elsewhere, OP.

Maybe your boss thought you were on drugs.
