Today, I was working my shift and my ex girlfriend came in to apply for a job. She broke up with me for another guy so i can't stand being in the same room as her. The manager talked to her and decided to hire her on the spot. I need to train her. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, the girl my ex-boyfriend cheated on me with had a job interview at my place of work. If she gets the job, she'll be my manager. FML
Drama abounds
Today, my girlfriend of 3 years threatened to break up with me because when she came by my work, she saw me talking to another girl. The girl was a trainee. I'm the boss of the company, so it's my responsibility to train new people. FML
Today, I found out my ex is applying for a job at my current company. She may become my boss. FML
Trading places
Today, my girlfriend who trained me at the job we both work at received a promotion, which left a spot for advancement. I was chosen for the position, and now the guy she's been cheating on me with is training me. Congrats. FML
Get out
Today, I went for a job interview. I'd resigned at my current job and applied for somewhere closer to home. They hired me on the spot, and as I was leaving, I saw my abusive ex-boyfriend working in the store. So… now I'm working alongside my ex who abused me for two years. Time to apply elsewhere. FML
Manage your way out of that one
Today, after a string of crappy employees had come and gone over the month, I was joking to my manager that maybe we should move the "Now Hiring" sign further away from the trash can so we'd stop getting garbage hires. The new girl was right behind me. I'll be her trainer all week. FML
Fate
Today, I found out that my ex-girlfriend got engaged to a coworker. I got her the job. FML
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
Fancy seeing you here
Today, my manager mentioned that she'd hired a "cute boy" to help me out at work with paperwork. The "cute boy" was my ex-fiancé and now I have to be with him in an office for 30 some hours a week while his current fiancée brings him lunch everyday. FML
Today, while at work, my ex-boyfriend came in. I pretended not to see him, hoping he would just pass on by. No such luck. He stopped to tell me that he was there for orientation. My company hired him. FML

you know you can talk to your manager and explain that it is not comfortable for you. a good manager will understand. if not i guess you can always get a new job?

Well, the only thing I can say is: be professional about it. Let her see her loss.

I totally understand your pain. I'm currently working with my ex-gf in a project, well I was the only one working on that project and I was doing that for her ..., not anymore. She told me that she loved me and that we were going to start a family (serious stuff), but after we had a intense fight, she started dating a different guy 4 days after I left. Then later she called another one ... pure flirt and she got a dinner out of it. Later during the week, I came and visit my friend, I had to go to her house cuz my friend was there and a salesman came to her house and she started hitting on him. She gave her number .... The main is point is " no more favors for someone who treated you like trash" treat her like a co-worker. You dont have to be friendly. Work is work. Do not talk to her.

This is the problem with alot of FMLs. Most of them wouldn't be if people acted rationally. Go to you boss and explain it. Say you had a semi bitter breakup and if he/she could, have someone else train her. If they're decent and you're a good worker, they would probably help you out. If not, just train her right. You already told your boss you don't like her so if you **** with her training, they'll know. Most likely if she want's a job where you work, she either wants you back or want's to make your life a living hell. If it's the last one, could you give her my number? Thanks. -Bauer

@14 ... not necessarily... I had to apply to a place my ex worked (same sitch, I left him for another guy BUT he'd been neglecting me severely. it was messy.) Anyway, I didn't want to apply there, but in this economy, you take what you can get. I'd worked there before and they were hiring. I ended up turning the job down though after my ex began sending me nasty emails about working with him because I must want him back and etc. It sucked.

I know how it feels - my ex dumps me for another guy and she joins the same place I work. And she even brings him along sometimes. All this in less than a month after she cheated on me and broke up. It's tough. Really tough. I have to see her face every day and it hurts so bad.
