Today, I found out that one of my subordinates, who is whiny, incompetent, undermining, the definition of passive-aggressive and stupid, was given a pay raise. She now makes more than me. My boss values a complete moron over me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that the airhead sitting next to me at work who can't get anything done on her own, makes more money than I do. FML
Today, I found out that a co-worker of mine that I had originally hired, trained, and mentored to work in my department for the past 4 years had just got the promotion that I had applied for. He is now my boss. FML
Today, I found out that a coworker and I may get laid off soon, all because my boss's niece told him she can do both our jobs all by herself, and for less money. FML
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
Today, my mother, who insists on sticking her nose into every aspect of my life, found out I'm only "middle management" and called my boss to criticize her for undervaluing me, demanding I be promoted immediately. I'm now the laughing stock of my office. FML
Today, the only colleague I dislike was promoted to be my manager. FML
Today, my extremely lazy colleague received a promotion with benefits, while I was fired for "not being a team-player". I had stayed quiet about her constant negative behaviour because my supervisor had said we needed to "have each other's backs". While I was protecting hers, she put a knife in mine. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, my boss bragged to a coworker, in front of me, about how much money he saved on a project because he majorly underpays me. My boss is my dad. FML
Today, I found out my "nice" boss was only nice to me for my first month. She's now started yelling at me for every little thing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Maybe because you treat your subordinates in that manner? You actually sound a bit like the whiny one.

Say that again. I couldn't hear you over the sound of you stabbing your colleague in the back.

Evidently, she is highly competent at undermining. You underestimate her skill at that at your peril. She’ll probably be your boss soon.

Yep, I agree. I came across people like that a few times as a consultant. They usually gossip about other people to the boss all the time, making themselves sound great and the other people sound bad. I would recommend that you find another job because she will create a shitheap just so that she can be at the top of it and then she will maintain that position at all costs. The problem you have is that evidently the boss believes her.

Maybe your excessively negative attitude and comparing yourself to others has something to do with it?

Some people appreciate the tongue that the brown noser is using while down there.

Maybe shes like Michael Scott. Seems to be a complete moron but is really a genius who plays dumb for amusement
