Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Unreasonable
Today, after finishing work and collecting my bag from my locker, I yawned as my manager came to ask me a question. She yelled at me for yawning. She then told others that I have a chronic yawning problem at work and need medical intervention. I can't even yawn once after a long tiring day on my own time. FML

Today, a co-worker verbally abused me because I yawned. His excuse was that, "It's contagious". FML

Today, I was told by my boss if I was late one more time he fired me. I replied, "Can I quit then if that's the case." He then said no, and gave me more shifts. FML

Today, I was really, REALLY tired at work. I went to the restroom to take a little break, and must have dozed off, because I was awoken by my boss, knocking on the door of the stall. Apparently, I had been snoring. FML

Today, I was asleep and snored so loud that I woke myself up. I was at work and I am now the laughing stock of the office. FML

Hey OP, I would really suggest looking for another job, toxic people like that are something you should try to avoid as much as possible in a workplace.

May be OP is yawning in front of customers....we don't have enough context here...

whatever you do, don't actually think about yawning. if you think it, you will do it.

Cover your mouth when you start yawning. I guess that's the best alternative.

Well, that'd be unlawful termination, no?

Unfortunately, not necessarily. Some states are at-will and don't need a reason.

Yes it would be, this is in Canada we don't have at will termination. I actually live in this province. Provided they are not still in their 3 month probationary period they can't actually be fired for yawning. However that said I've seen bosses make something up, which then you have to prove was false.

Sounds like this is your hundredth and final yawning.
