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

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, 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?

I know how you feel...my ex boyfriend and I just got hired at the same place too...very bad breakup. All you have to do is try to be mature about it. If you can handle it maturely it should be fine.

Man, that's the perfect opportunity for revenge,. but, sadly #1 is very right. And, why is she working at the same place you are at? maybe she's having second thoughts? if you still like her...

btw my job is mcdonalds and it's part time so like i'm still in high schoolb well thank you for all advice, but i decided to talk to the manager and mention that i didn't feel comfortable training her, and that she is my ex girlfriend and he said that he will take care of it.. he called her with me still in his office and said that he found someone else who will do the job for less pay and that she no longer had a job.. he is conducting interviews this week because he never actually found anyone, he told me that i'm one of his best employees and he wants to keep me as happy as possible and focused on work.. i love my boss

It would have been worse if he fired you to hire her.. But he fired you after you trained her xD

It's shitty of her to apply for a job at your place of work, shows lack of respect for you. As others have said, be mature, don't let her get to you and keep things professional. Concentrate on the fact that you don't have to give her the time of day outside your working hours.
