Today, I called in sick to work for a second day. After months of my boss trying to get me sacked by spreading vicious rumors about me, taunting me into retaliating, and generally making my life a living hell, he finally got his chance. He sent me a text saying, "yeh dont bother son ure fuckin fired." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was feeling terrible so I called in sick to work. My boss refused to believe me and told me he'd fire me if I didn't come in. I dragged myself to work, only to spend most of the day glued to the toilet. Now he says I won't be paid for the day because I barely did any work. FML
Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML
Today, I called into work because of a family emergency. My boss was understanding; my coworker? He tore me a new one because his wife wanted him to take the day off, which he didn't because it was going to be a tough day at work. He also threatened to find a way he could get me fired. 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 called in sick for the first time. My boss said that if I didn’t show up, not only would he fire me, but he’d make sure I never find another job for the rest of my life. So I showed up to work with a bucket, puking every five minutes. My boss still made me stay the full nine hours. FML
Today, I was fired. Why? Because I called in sick on my daughter's birthday, even though you cannot "abandon work for personal affairs". My boss's favorite employee got to skip work on his wife's birthday two weeks ago. He still works here. FML
Today, my boss called me into his office. After yelling and firing me, his assistant comes in telling him he had mistaken me for someone else. He did not give me my job back, as he claimed it would make an awkward work environment. FML
Today I was home sick from work because my doctor gave me a new pill that made me throw up violently. My boss called. I thought she was checking on me. She fired me instead. FML
Today, my boss called and yelled at me because he said I was "spotted" out after I called off sick. I was out getting the medicine the doctor had just prescribed me. FML
Today, a reliable source informed me that my suspicions that I would soon be fired were wrong. Instead, my boss plans to make my life miserable until I quit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Too bad in most states it's borderline illegal to fire someone that way. Look at your company handbook. If it's a small owned business ur ****** tho.

Lawsuit for harrassing conduct and psychologically unhealthy work environment. Also, blessing in disguise. Now you can go find a job with a better boss. Good luck.

This reminds me of how one of my friends got fired by a douche bag manager. It turns out later on that said douche bag manager got fired by an even bigger boss and my friend may be getting his job back. Your boss will get his when the time is right. Don't worry about it. The people who would believe those rumors your boss made up I wouldn't associate with anyway if I were you.

I don't understand how so many people get fire for being sick. That's just wrong.

What kind of boss talks to employees like that. Are you a gigolo?

"Sue him! Sue him!" hahahahahahahahaha Yeah guys, I know! I bet you up and sue people all the time, because it's just that easy. Nothing to it. There is no basis for a wrongful termination suit. No, the boss will probably not "get his" and get fired. Shit happens; that's life. Ya pick yourself up and try find a new job. And please stop saying that it's a good thing that he got fired so he can get another job. You have to explain to the next prospective employer the circumstances surrounding the end of your last position. You will have to say you got fired, and you will not have a reference from that job. No matter what the reasoning for termination from a job, justified or unjustified, it NEVER looks good to have a firing on your work history and it can make it hard to find a new job.

^This. I'm sick of all these sue-happy assholes. We sued the people whose dog bit me when I was a kid and it took years and years and tons of bullshit to finally see an outcome.

Agreed. My advice, keep tabs on where he lives, it's easy, wait 5 months, cut his break lines, burn his house down, murder his family

And the beauty is nobody will due after that! Because it's such a bitch to get the law involved!

Thanks for the thumbs up KaySL:) Although not to that extent spartan522114, I am certainly more of a revenge person myself. It's the way to go. Without a doubt the boss is assanine enough to make me want to go find him and smash his face into a table. But I better watch out...all these commenters are gonna contact the BBB, OSHA, EEOC, FEMA, NASA and the NSA on me and file suit on the basis of mental trauma..
