Today, I got a call from my employers wanting to ask why I had a no call, no show for today. My supervisor reported me for not showing up to work. It's my day off, and also my birthday. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was told not to show up for work, after I showed up for work. FML
Today, it's my birthday and I had to work. My boss wished me a happy birthday, and then told me I was fired. 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, I got called into work on my day off. I ended up being written up for being 15 minutes late to a shift I didn't even have. FML
Today, I asked my boss if I could take a vacation day for my birthday on Monday. She called to tell me yes, and then told me I'm getting laid off. FML
Today, I was promised that I wouldn't have to work late because I had tomorrow off for my birthday. My coworkers decided that none of them want to work late, and that I could do it. So I am stuck working late and have to come in on my birthday, which I had requested off. FML
Today, I got a call from the office telling me I was fired. When I asked why, my boss explained my mother called and told him I was in a "weak mental state." She thought she was helping me get off for my birthday. Now I have no job. FML
Today, my boss called on my day off and told me to come to work. She neglected to tell me that it was simply to give me my recent paycheck after it got lost, but then she said, "Since you showed up in uniform, you might as well clock in for today. The new guy no-showed again." FML
Today, it’s my birthday. My boss treated me to a day off work, except my mother called at 12:01am drunk as hell screaming, “Happy birthday” down the phone. When I finally fell back asleep, I awoke to my boss asking me to come in after all. FML
Today, I was called to be told I'm fired for not showing up for my shift. I guess she didn't check her voice message to see that I gave birth last night. FML

"Why isn't Chris here? Oh, right, it's his day off." "Who's Chris again?" "You know, 29-year-old, short hair, glasses…" "I just checked the employee roster, and the only Chris is 30." "Oh, I must've been confused. Call him and tell him to get his ass in here!"

Happy Birthday!

Working on your birthday should be illegal. I mean, unless you want to... But who the hell WANTS to work on their birthday?

I would much rather work the day of my birthday than the day AFTER my birthday...

This great because yesterday really was my 30th birthday, and I even wear glasses.

This is ANOTHER good reason I take a picture of every weeks schedules.

Hello everyone. I would just like to say, my schedule is the same every week, sun-thurs. My supervisor just either had his days mixed up, or hadn't noticed yet that I'm never there on Friday (I haven't been working there long). Once I pointed out to the woman who called me, that it was my scheduled day off, she apologized repeatedly and all was well. I also had a great birthday. Thanks to everyone who wished me well :)
