Today, I got fired from a job I had already resigned from after agreeing to stay on and help them out for an extra month, despite having no contract. They fired me because a colleague refused to work with me anymore because I wouldn't date him. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was fired from a managerial position I've held for two years due to "inappropriate relations with a subordinate": I was dating a coworker. My girlfriend then broke up with me four hours later. Because I no longer had a job. I hired her. FML
Today, I was fired for actively seeking employment with another company. Because of having just been fired, the other company will no longer give me the time of day. FML

Today, I got fired. Not because of anything I did, but because my best friend, who'd I'd gotten hired, stood up for herself when both the owner's wife and daughter became disrespectful professionally. She then quit and got a job with a competitor. They started looking at her LinkedIn. Two weeks later, I get canned. FML
Today, I got fired from my volunteer job. FML
Today, I got fired from work. Why? I finally took a stand for myself and confronted my coworker of writing things up in my name for herself, and it getting deducted from my check. So she went to the manager and accused me of sexual harassment. FML

Well, at least you’re out of a job you didn’t want any more, but they should definitely have fired him.

Asking for a date is NOT sexuell harassment, nor is refusing to work with someone.

I think that it qualifies because that is why she was fired, even though it was indirect.

Firing someone for refusing to go on a date with someone else is though.

Firing someone for refusing to go out on the date is a massive sexual harassment violation.

Actually, it could be more of a wrongful dismissal case on the grounds of harassment. Clearly the person OP is referring to didn't just ask once. That person got pissed off after being rejected so many times, and retaliated by refusing to work with OP. Which led to OP being fired. And that's not a valid reason to fire someone. If anything, there should be an investigation conducted.

If the coworker repeatedly tried despite OP saying no, it COULD be classified as sexual harassment. My job had us watch a sexual harassment video in training, and this was one of the situations.

Talk to HR if they have an HR department. That’s sexual harassment and the bastards fired the wrong person. On the bright side, you wanted out....

Never go to HR. They work for the management, not the workers. They are not your friend or even an honest broker.

I agree with this. They have never helped me even though they discriminated against me!

Sounds like that's entirely their loss. Just move on, you already quit anyway.

I would take this problem to corporate, because it sounds like they were just looking for any reason to fire you.

Sounds like a set up to me

That's why you never offer to help the company out that you're leaving and have resigned from. Clearly they're smoking their own socks and don't know what they're doing if they need your help.
