Today, I went in to work to check my new schedule for the week. I searched up and down and didn't see my name listed. After talking to my manager, he decided it would be easier to "release" me than remake a new schedule. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was checking my schedule online and noticed that I wasn't scheduled for any shifts next week. Not thinking it was a big deal, I called HR to get it corrected, only to find out I was laid off and they "forgot" to tell me. FML
Today, after not being on the schedule for a week, I checked to see what my next shift was, only to find my employee profile edited to 'disabled' and still no hours or word from any managers. This after weeks of showing up at the drop of a hat when needed for any position. FML
Today, despite the schedule saying I was off, I found out I’m supposed to be working because my boss changed the schedule without my knowledge. FML
Today, I was informed that I was let go from my job for not showing up for a week. A week I'd scheduled off, that management had approved. FML
Today, I went into work to change a shift I was unable to work. I phoned the first person on the employee sheet and they promptly answer by saying, "You still work here? I thought the manager fired you." I was fired last week and have been showing up for shifts without anybody noticing. FML
Today, I arrived at work and was immediately given a disciplinary write-up for being two hours late for my shift. Apparently the manager had changed my schedule that morning and failed to tell me. FML
Today, after taking a much-needed mental health week off from work, I discovered I wasn’t on the schedule this week. Turns out, I was fired. Apparently, my absence made things “inconvenient” for my department, since they had to do double work due to my “selfish” PTO usage. FML
Today, I showed up to work at 6am, only to find out the schedule was changed. I wasn't actually supposed to be there until 9:15. My boss never told me this. I didn't get to go home either, he just said, "Oh well. Get to work." FML
Today, I got my new work schedule. I really need the hours. The boss says he can't give me more because the economy is bad. However, he did find enough hours to hire his son last week. This week? Most of my hours were erased and given to the new employee; his daughter. FML
Today, I was let go from my job for not being able to come into work early. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Agreed with 1 making a schedule maybe complicated at your workplace due to number of employees and/or lack of hours available. FYL but it may be difficult to make another schedule. yes.

WOW is ur boss a dude?
mrahhhhh 21
I'll give you a free pass on the reading comprehension fail seeing as how you made the post late at night and I almost made the same mistake of posting a comment without knowing the boss's (possible bad grammar; I know and don't give a #%$#) gender.
mamamiaaa_fml 12
No foo he's a boss. Duhhh dude. Yeah I said it. Duhhh. I'm bringing Duhhh back. So yes. To whatever you are thinking.

Dang...let's get a little disturbing now

I don't believe this. -_- not legal. unless you are a seasonal employee. I mean how hard is it to ADD someone to your staffing?? it's much harder to find a replacement or take someone out.

Actually, it is legal. I've worked in retail for 3 years now and my company did that all the time to people they recently hired when they weren't needed anymore. Obviously OP wasn't necessary enough to be kept around. And considering the way the FML is written, it's safe to assume the OP was either seasonal or part-time.

It is 100% legal. A lot of companies take people off the schedule before they actually tell them they're fired. OP is clearly one of those obnoxious people that asks for days off after the schedule is made. That is grounds for the release right there.

It's definitely legal. It's an easy way to get someone to quit their job, too, so you don't have to fire them.

It's only legal if your on probation or don't have a union.

@39 How is the OP "clearly" one of those obnoxious people who asks for days off after the schedule is posted? Do you know them? Have you seen them do this?
tencentsakiss 19
If you read my comment below, OP answered me and I retracted that statement.

Actually #5 it depends on where you live. OP probably lives in a right-to-work state, meaning employers can terminate an employee at any time with or without reason. OP, that sucks. FYL indeed.

It means you're useless and does afraid of everything.

Dude, seriously, ask a native English speaker to proofread your comments before you post them. Otherwise, you will be met with a lot of confused replies and ridicule.

OP: So does this mean that taking an office stapler to the back of his head is easier than going through the complex procedure of filing a lawsuit?

Sir, I like your style!

lol that would be more effective and most likely much more enjoyable!!

Did you know shoehorns aren't allowed in certain buildings because they are weapons? Something tells me someone in a shoestore tried your method.

That's harsh OP, I'm sorry :/ I'm sure you could fight that, cause it really doesn't seem legal.
tencentsakiss 19
It's

Stupid iPod. It's completely legal.
