Today, it was my first day at my new job. My new boss asked me if I was single. After telling him I have been happily married for 6 years, he fired me on the spot. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, after a month at my new job, my boss fired me because I didn't have enough experience. She hired me with full knowledge of this fact. FML
Today, I was enjoying my first vacation day in 2 years. My boss then called me to come in, saying it was an emergency. I got to work and got fired. Yes, my boss made me come in just to fire me. FML
Today, I was fired from my job. Why? Because my boss has been dating my newly divorced mother, and he didn't want family get-togethers to be "awkward." FML
Today, my boss left early, so I decided to take an extended break and run home. I found my wife in bed with my boss. I got fired for leaving work. FML
Today, my boss fired me because his girlfriend wanted the job I had. She has no experience whatsoever in my line of work, it was just his "anniversary present" for her. FML
Today, it's my birthday and I had to work. My boss wished me a happy birthday, and then told me I was fired. FML
Today, I went to my first day of work in over 2 years. As I approached the boss, he asked me what my name was. Turned out they hired the wrong person. FML
Today, I got married and I'd invited everyone from work including my boss. His way of congratulating me was to mention that I'm out of a job. He said it was a good time to do it because he thought I would be too happy or too drunk to care. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Just because you have the chance to be first doesn't give you the right to write something pointless and rude.

@9- WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH - cry some more. You people always getting on to people about people writing useless first comments are just as pathetic and idiotic as they are. Besides I found the comment to be very fitting. He did get "owned". And who cares if its rude? This isn't a serious forum...

@9: He has the right to state his opinion just like you do. He can be rude, pointless, and an asshole; just like you can be dense and clueless. As long as he doesn't violate this site's rules. For **** sake, nobody should come on this site expecting civility or comfort. Plenty of other sites for that.

Even in At-Will states, your employer needs a legal reason to fire you. They can fire you for any reason they want, but if they can't show a legal reason when they are sued, they will lose horribly.

You should sue for that. Someone can't fire another person just because they're married.

actually, this case has real merit and should go to trial
shenaniganry 3
Exactly. That's a form of discrimination, you need a legit reason to fire somebody.
deaper 16
Hell yeah it's got tons of merit! Sue his ass for everything he's got!

Maybe OP wouldn't even have to go that far as to sue. A call to that company's human resource's department would suffice. What OP's boss did was so blatantly illegal, the viability of the potential lawsuit would encourage HR to step in.

seriously. that's totally illegal. I'm not even allowed to ask a persons age when interviewing unpaid interns.

I think it is legal since it was within the probation period. Doesn't make it right, but some people take advantage of those days.

Unless he was under a 90 day promotion period. Some places have it where by can fire you for any reason within the first 90 days. If this is the case, then he can't sue the company
daisyloo 7
I would sue!! you should too, because he had no reason to fire you!!

It's unfortunate that they don't need a reason to fire you on your first day. She could try doing something about slight sexual harassment maybe...being fired because you're married definately says something about their intentions towards you. I've been fired for an illegal reason, almost right at the end of the 3 month period, they also wrote on the termination slip that I had quit. I wasn't able to really do much about it in the end, and I really don't think she will either. She could still try though, if nothing else she can be a pain in his ass for a while.

if suing doesn't work, firebomb the establishment in the middle of the night

Look at it this way, would you rather find a better job with a more professional boss or go to work only to be hit on by a creep every day?

It is illegal to ask about one's marital status. Sue the shit outta the company!
grooglius 0
just asking as a coworker is fine, but it's illegal to fire based on marital status
CaptinObvious467_fml 2
Do you know the law in every state? Because different laws allow employers to fire without just cause. If she brought him to court he could justify that she looked at him funny earlier and that's why he fired her. It would be a challenge to win this case and you its probably not worth it.
mrdblq 6
He just wanted to give you a nice lump sum of cash. After all, its illegal to fire somebody based on marital status.
