Today, my boss asked me, "Can I give you some constructive criticism?" I said yes. He told me, "Your work is really shit. You have no talent and I can't figure out why I hired you." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I sat in my boss's office as he bitched me out for being "too sarcastic" to our customers. After nearly half an hour of him criticizing my "piss-poor attitude," he asked me what I was going to do to fix it. Without thinking, I said, "Your mom." Now I'm jobless again. FML
Today, my boss called me into his office. He then fired me. Upset, I asked him, "Well, who's gonna replace me?" His answer was, "I don't know and don't care. Everyone who works here hates you. Now go away." FML
Today, my boss told me, "You oversold your skills in your job interview." I have worked in this industry for 25 years. FML
Today, my supervisor’s first words when looking at my work were, “What is this shit?!” I explained that I'd done it exactly like she told me to. She just kept on grumbling because she couldn’t find a single thing I had done wrong, which apparently ruined her day. FML
Today, I had my performance review at work. Under the "oral communication" category my boss wrote that I "act like an asshole." FML
Today, my boss threatened to fire me because I'm unproductive, and haven't been doing anything. He doesn't tell me what to do, and expects me to read his mind. When I ask him what he wants me to do, he gets pissed and says that I should already know what to do. FML
Today, my boss asked for recommendations on how to improve the office. I sent her an e-mail full of my ideas. Later, my boss sent me a reply, saying, "Here's what head office thinks of your ideas." It contained a list of insults upper management made about me. FML
Today, I gave my boss a report I wrote on my own time, full of suggestions on how to increase productivity and profits at our company. He said my ideas made "about as much sense as pistol-whipping a ghost" and that I was impressing no one. FML
Today, after putting in 110% at my shitty job for two years straight, my boss told me point-blank I'm too good in my current position for him to ever be able to justify promoting me. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I corrected him after he misspoke during a meeting. FML

You can retort: "I find you unmotivating and unskilled as a manager. You have no people skills and require a stronger mouthwash. A good manager can facilitate anyone. You are a poopy-head."

Apparently you were wrong, he can't give you constructive criticism.

Did you ask him what he didn't like about any of your work

Hey you stupid ***** who feel sorry for this guy, have you ever heard of a man named Steve Jobs? That was his management style and his teams put out the best products out there. Grow so balls and work harder.

This might be a possible management style, but I would never call that "constructive criticism". He should have asked "is it okay if I totally destroy your confidence without telling you what I think you did wrong?"

That's not constructive criticism. This is constructive criticism, Your hair looks really nice. You seriously have no talent and I don't know why I hired you. Your clothes look AMAZING!
