Today, my lazy bastard of a co-worker punched me straight in the jaw because he didn't get the promotion I did. Being his new manager, I fired him. A few hours later, I was fired for "abusing" my power. FML

Today, I got fired for being late. Apparently you're supposed to be on time after your boss specifically tells you that the office will open an hour late. FML

Today, my boss wanted to promote me to a managerial position. I declined the position, saying that I don't think I'm ready and experienced enough for that role. I was then fired instead for not accepting the promotion. I was fired for being honest. FML

Don't know what I think about this, but if it were my first day as promoted manager, I'd try to impress people as much as possible.

Yeah, I agree with #1. OP - You should have at least tried to be on time... or even early. Idiot.

A valuable lesson has been learned. Go die; if your manager you'd think you had the responsibility to not be late.

Don't assume it was their fault. They might have had a legitimate delay.

Usually when an OP feels he/she has a legitimate excuse, he/she includes it in the post. If OP had strived to be early, he/she probably would've been on time in spite of delays.

wow...smart move there op, although I'm sure they wouldn't fire you for just being late once

9, that's exactly what happened.

Maybe not. OP was promoted so he/she possibly had a prior attendance record with the company and was already one lateness away from termination.
