Today, I overheard my boss talking about me on the phone. Turns out he was drunk off his ass when he gave the go-ahead to hire me, and he's now searching for any excuse to legally fire me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Nice to know
Today, my boss mistakenly drunk-texted me and was talking shit about me. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, my boss called me into his office. After yelling and firing me, his assistant comes in telling him he had mistaken me for someone else. He did not give me my job back, as he claimed it would make an awkward work environment. 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
Understandable
Today, I found out that the dream in which I drunkenly phoned my boss and called him a "fat useless piece of shit" actually did happen. I woke up to 10 missed calls and 5 angry texts stating I was fired. FML
Today, I had to have a word with my boss about how him coming into work drunk is probably not a very good idea. FML
Today, I discovered that my boss listens to the things we say about him on the audio-enabled cameras at our work. I'm thus currently jobless. FML
Today, I was fired from my job. My boss claimed it was because I smelled like alcohol, never mind the fact that my job was brewmaster at a beer company. FML
The writing is on the wall
Today, I overheard the guy who hired me talking to one of my managers in hushed tones about me. I'm pretty sure he's going to send me an email soon, saying that my job "probably isn't the right fit" for me, which is part of what I overheard. FML
Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML

Seems like something he should be fired for. Not very professional.

"So why were you hesitant about hiring him in the first place?" "Oh, I guess he just seems sort of irresponsible, you know? Like, I didn't feel as though I could give him a task he'd take seriously." "Yeah… being irresponsible can lead to bad decisions…"

Wow. He's not even going to give you a chance? Blow him out of the water with how great of an employee you are!

You should work your ass off to prove to him you deserve to work there

Just work your ass off and prove him wrong. If you want the job, it's yours. But I personally wouldn't want to work for someone who doesn't value or respect me and who cuts corners.

Now this is the kind of boss I would NOT want to work for. Just do your best and hopefully things will turn in your favor. But burnish your resume just in case (and be very hesitant about using your current boss as a reference).

Time to start looking for a new job, while still giving 100% at your current one. Best case: you find a better job and as soon as you quit to take it, your then ex-boss realizes that he should have stuck with his drunk decision.

Start hunting for a new job and quit before they have a chance to get rid of you. I'm so sorry this is happening to you.

I think he should be fired himself, if only for being an irresponsible tool.
