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.

I highly doubt they would fire you, as a promoted manager, just for being late, or on your FIRST DAY as a promoted manager. 1. We aren't given a reason as to why you were late. Of course, this also would count on if you were a late employee before you were promoted.. 2. How good of an amployee were you before the promotion as well...

It's ok, OP. I'm sure there are plenty of other Burger Kings out there that need a new assistant manager. You'll be back to ordering around pimply 16 year old illiterate morons before you can say, "Fries with that?"

Burger King strictly holds to the highest quality of pimpley-faced 16-test-olds. They will never hire the likes of him again.

Friend, I would say "I'm sorry" right about now unless you really want to earn a Seal of Disapproval from the Mighty FML Deity. Start your groveling now, swine. Now!

28 I could totally see this happening at a call centre or some other job you wouldn't wish on Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, Madoff or Al Gore. At crap jobs like that it's one size fits all inflexible rules. Did it during university, saw it happen. Sooty about you luck OP, call the department of labour though
