Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste

Today, I made a fatal mistake that may cost my company thousands of dollars. This was right after I got a recognition for my outstanding work last week. FML

Today, while at work as a digital personal shopper at Walmart I was done picking, so I went to go put the cart away. I ended up hitting a coworker because she was crouched down cleaning something. I felt so bad and now I’m scared I’m going to get fired. FML

Full blast
Today, I found out about a mistake I made at work when the director brought it up in an all-staff meeting, including staff from a different office. It was the first I time I'd heard about it - along with everyone else. Not as fun as it sounds. FML

Today, I fired all 12 of my employees, purely out of anger and frustration. Realizing my mistake when I'd calmed down, I called each employee and apologized, asking if they'd come back. Only one said yes. The mailroom clerk. FML

Today, I found out that my coworker shared a laugh with the boss about setting the office desk on fire (which he actually did), while ten minutes later I was threatened with being fired because I made paper snowflakes and hung a few of them next to the computer. FML

Today, I had to call a coworker to the office via the store intercom. The damn thing didn't turn off properly and everyone heard me say, "I hate that asshole. Just be where your dumb ass should be." I realized my mistake a few seconds before my manager stormed in and threatened to fire me. FML

Not a good look
Today, it's day one of my suspension and probably being fired from my job. Why? I accidentally took a beer out my bag instead of a soda, then got distracted working to make sure everything got done. FML

How do we know the people that got fired didn't deserve it? OP's mistake could've been something that exposed their guilt. He doesn't provide enough info for us to know whether he deserves it or not... It seems weird that seven people would get fired over one person's mistake and THEY know about it but the boss doesn't.

#58 - exactly what I was thinking. Also, there is the possibility that OP was fired too. He hasn't said if he got to keep his job or not - maybe he's just the last one out of the building.

i agree. one of my first thoughts was that OP accidentally ratted out his co-workers without realizing it. I'll admit that it has happened to me. I was new on the job and was shown the "sneaky" way of doing cash outs (only writing the card purchases down and never the cash. "the boss takes care of the cash" i was told) Eventually I mucked up at work and wrote down the cash instead of the card purchases. My boss called me out on it and I went to fix it in front of him, not including any of the cash. "Where's the cash numbers?" "I thought you handled it...." "No, the shop closers handles it. Who showed you to do it this way?" "oh, everybody does it this way. I thought this is how you wanted it done." The next day There were four new people training and even though the people they replaced were thieves I still felt really really bad.

Truly, how did you get 7 people fired by *mistake*? Most people find it impossible to get even 1 person fired on purpose. You seem to have found your talent! There are CEOs throughout America in need of your skills to help them "downsize" - which basically means sack a ton of people now so management can asset strip the company and leave it to go insolvent - err, I mean "increase shareholder value"...
