A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

**** me, I guess
Today, I was fired. Not only was I fired with no warning, not only was my friend the one who fired me, but I was fired from the unpaid volunteering position I took to help her out. FML

Animalistic
Today, I was fired from my local animal shelter. I was a volunteer and am currently in school for veterinary technology. My education made the paid staff at the shelter feel threatened. FML

Today, I got demoted at my job. Instead of working with patients, they want me to file. The thing is, I'm a volunteer; I work for them for free. FML

the only way people get " fired" from volunteer work is if they do something thats bad. I know because I volunteer and the people that do get asked to leave are the trouble makers, disrespectful, lazy with bad attitudes teenagers/college students that need volunteer hours on their record to graduate.

Actually, OP may not have done anything wrong. It's possible that the people in charge just didn't like them or needed something done that OP wasn't qualified for. (Ex - maybe there was a certain skill such as filing and OP is dyslexic, or maybe there's a requirement on lifting heavy items and OP simply wasn't able to do it). I got fired from a volunteer job once too. All I had to do was scan books to see if they would sell at a thrift shop. Some books (like text books) I had to "use my best judgment". The person above me didn't like my judgment calls. The person above her was confused b/c he thought I was doing a good job. As it turned out, that lady fired MANY volunteers because she prefered working alone. So now I'm giving OP the benefit of the doubt. (tl/dr)

I bet you still had to ask to be removed from the schedule, huh, OP?

There are some jobs where this is common. If you kill someone in volunteer EMS or firefighting damn straight you're getting fired.
