Today, I got a badly-needed job at a local discount store. After being hired, I found out I'm to help with the soon-to-begin store closing sale, and I'll be jobless again after 3 months. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at the job I've had for eight years, I finally got the raise I was supposed to get a year ago. One hour later I found out the store was closing and we were all out of a job in two weeks. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my boss, who'd hired me after two months of waiting and begging for this position. A week into the job, the company is closing our store. FML
Today, the store I work at got shut down and I got let go. Three days ago I got a promotion and a raise. FML
Today, after finally getting a job offer after months of unemployment, I found out that the person who was going to hire me got fired. Which means I'm not getting the job. FML
Today, I started an awesome job with competitive pay. I also found out that the place is closing its doors in June. FML
Today, I got hired and now I have to work. FML
Today, I got fired after three days at my new job. They told me it was because of downsizing. They were still interviewing people and had a help wanted sign in the window. FML
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
Today, it's been less than a week since I finally got a job, after over a year of searching. I just found out that there's about to be a wave of layoffs. I haven't even gotten my first paycheck, and already I'm going to lose my job. FML
Today, after being recently laid off at work due to "cutbacks", I went job searching around town. During my drive, I cruised past my old workplace and saw a "now hiring" sign in their window. FML

That's fine. For now u got income. You can use the next few months to find another job. That's PLENTY of time. Check car dealers. They always need drivers

While it sucks did you not ask for how long you could work there? Also its a great temp job to keep you afloat and you can easily explain why it only lasted 3 months.

I had a job like this once. They let us stay for all the over time we wanted. Work 12 hours everyday so you'll have money afterward

Better to have a job for 3 months while your look for another then to have no job and keep looking for a job
