Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the man who fired me from my job became my stepfather. FML
Today, I got fired. Yesterday was my birthday and I was told I was getting a promotion. FML
Today, my mother-in-law became my boss. FML
Today, the only colleague I dislike was promoted to be my manager. FML
Today, my boss got a promotion and I got laid off. FML
Today, it's my first day as the boss, after waiting months for this promotion. Today is also the day my replacement, who I trained for three months, quit. Now I've got two jobs for the price of one. FML
Today, my supervisor at work is now my father-in-law. My girlfriend told me that. FML
Today, my boss was fired by the board. A few days ago, he dropped several strong hints that he was going to promote me soon. FML
Today, I got promoted. By promoted, I mean, given a much harder job with no training and no extra pay because someone went on maternity leave. They've already hired someone for my old position. FML
Today, it was my first day as a promoted manager. I got fired for being late. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Ask if someone else can let him go. Say it's a conflict of interest

Oh my... That's tough one. Try talking it out with your supervisor then your soon to be father-in-law. One of them should understand your predicament. Good luck!

That's going to be one awkward wedding ceremony! When your father-in-law-to-be gives away his daughter, he won't let her walk the aisle in a white dress, just in a pink slip. Heeeeeyyy-yyyyoooooo!

Not sure an FML could get any worse than this, not even getting mauled by a bear while having a lumberjack do the charleston on your genitals is worse than this. FYL.

I feel your pain I've had to fire my dad from the company he started because his moves were about to put us in bankruptcy. :(

Explain your hands are tied. It isn't your fault.

It's part of the job, but it is a conflict of interest. Simply tell them the situation and why you can't do it. Hopefully management will understand. If they don't, good luck!

If only I'd ever had the chance to fire my former mother in law. I get chills on my scalp just thinking about how great that would feel. Oh wait. That's the fresh buzzcut.

I would ask if someone else can do it. You shouldn't be made to do that.
