Today, my best friend went to my boss and offered to do my job for half the pay. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Cutthroat
Today, my boss asked that I add the work of our third coworker's position to my shift because he's never finished his duties. She gave us a 50 cent raise to "babysit" a 60-ish year-old man. I responded to respectfully fire him or pay me 20/hr. His last day is Friday and he doesn't even know yet. FML
Thanks Pam, FU too
Today, my brat of a coworker tried to convince our boss that I should get paid half of what I'm making because I broke my right arm. I'm left-handed, broke it on the job, and still doing a better job than her. She makes double what I do. FML
Today, my best friend was fired from the place we both work at because she's a bad employee. After they fired her she said, "If I go, I'm taking my best friend with me." So they fired me too. I actually liked that job. FML
Today, I was telling my co-workers about how I'd gotten tickets to a concert in a few days. My boss overheard. Later, he told me I now have to work on the night of the concert. However, he was kind enough to offer to buy the tickets off me for half of what I'd paid for them. FML
What?
Today, my coworker got a raise by making our boss give me a pay cut for doing his job while he was slacking off. As we were heading home for the day, he found $100. 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, I found out that a coworker and I may get laid off soon, all because my boss's niece told him she can do both our jobs all by herself, and for less money. FML
You must obey
Today, my company decided to give me a second role, since I’m "the best performing candidate.” When I turned it down, they asked me to work half-time instead. I quit. FML
Meritocracy
Today, after six months of doing the job of 2 people, because all my coworker does is sleep and sit down with her phone, I told my boss that I can't be doing my coworker's job and getting the same salary as her. My boss added just $10 to my salary and told me to let her carry on doing nothing, while I still do the work of 2 people. FML
Today, I went to my boss with concerns that my manager is dumping her responsibilities on me. He agreed and told me to just do whatever she wants. She gets paid twice as much as me to talk on her cellphone all day. FML

A jobs not worth doing if its not done right. I think your friend wont get it, due to your boss wanting quality not low pay

You mean ex-best friend right?

Hey guys :) OP here- so I just wanted to clear up a couple of things because there seems to be a little confusion. I'm actually 16 years old, so it wasn't a proper profession- it's packaging for a small company, my boss leaves me stuff by the door for me to pack and pays me by the batch. My best friend has always wanted a job but is too lazy to find one of her own so she asked me for my bosses number and claimed she was just going to ask if the company is looking for anyone else. The job doesn't require much talent (it's literally taking things and putting them in bags) so my boss didn't have much trouble letting me go- her 'reason' was that she couldn't afford me. I'm still friends with my best friend though, just not gonna be talking to her for a while. Thanks for all the support guys :)
