Today, I worked up the nerve to ask my boss for a raise. Today is also the day I found out my boss has a shitlist of employees he wants to fire, and that I'm now on it. FML

What?
Today, my coworker got a raise by making our boss give me a pay cut for doing his job while he was slacking off. As we were heading home for the day, he found $100. FML

Hey, OP's at least a cupcake richer than yesterday. You know what they say, a cupcake gained is a few hundred calories earned.

No, 12. Cupcakes are muffins that doll themselves up in makeup. In which case, the phrase is, "Muffins are ugly cupcakes."
