Today, my boss called me into her office to tell me I needed to mind my own business and not question everything my newest co-worker does. Yesterday, I stopped the new girl from giving $6,000 to the wrong person. I was fired on the spot. The new girl was promoted into my job. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, my boss threw me out of her office during a conference call for daring to correct her. The client fired the company because she subsequently got all the information on the call wrong, and plainly had no idea what was going on. From all the screaming, this is now all my fault. 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, my boss held a meeting to talk about how we can't overlook others and no one should pick favorites. I walked out unemployed when I pointed out that she completely ignored the person who made the biggest sale in company history and constantly gave her son raises for mediocre work. FML
Today, I got fired from my dream job. I found out today that the girl who trained me lied and taught me how to do things wrong, so that when she got back from maternity leave, she could get me fired and take her job back. My new coworkers were in on her plan from the beginning. FML
Today, I got in trouble with my boss for doing what she wanted me to do. I guess she didn't think I would do it, so she did it herself. 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, 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 from work. Why? I finally took a stand for myself and confronted my coworker of writing things up in my name for herself, and it getting deducted from my check. So she went to the manager and accused me of sexual harassment. FML
Today, my boss was fired by the board. A few days ago, he dropped several strong hints that he was going to promote me soon. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

if you were fired on the spot yesterday, why did your boss call you into her office today?

first of all #62, she has to start it out with " today, " but anyways if its a bigger company and your boss has a boss, the boss is definately going to end up being fired and you should sue to get your job back, if its a smaller company, its going to go out of business due to incompetence and you should find another job

And she's probably hot and/or sleeping with him. Or at least giving him hope. Don't worry, her incompetence will not go ignored. And if it does, the company will not do well.

Haha. I copied and pasted what 63 said so I could properly reply to it and I changed my mind about elaborating didn't delete it afterward. FML =P

You should've let her give the money to the wrong person, see who gets fired then

I bet the new girl would have gotten away with that anyway, "everyone does dumb things on their first day at the job", while the "old girl" would have gotten fired anyway. "For not checking up on the girl who made a fuckup".

Ydi for going to work

YDI for not obeying your boss. The newbie's mistakes aren't your responsibility, and when your boss tells you to lay off, then it's your responsibility (i.e. your job) to lay off. The boss needs to see for herself what a hopeless twit the newbie is. It's their loss alone if it costs the company $6,000.

Yeah, it's not your $6000, why care if it means you will lose your job?

Thanks to the boss' overriding order, she already knew that she shouldn't be fired for another employee's indiscretion (she was given an order, and she directly violated it). Even if her boss even fired her anyway, then she could report it to the higher ups - not that it would necessarily get her the job back, but at least her boss would have a permanent reprimand on her own record. There's no reason that she should have purposefully put her own neck on the line. If the risk is getting reprimanded for doing something you're not supposed to do versus getting reprimanded for doing something that you were supposed to do, why would anybody pick the former? The OP defied simple logic, not to mention her orders. BTW, if you're going to try using sarcasm as a means of belabouring supposed reason, it helps to imply wit in the context. Nice job on pulling a troll fail. PS Out of curiosity, it occurs to me that this entire situation may have been engineered by the boss and the new girl just to oust her from the job. It's a bit far-fetched, I know, but it's also entirely possible. Now that would really suck. =/

Since the new girl got promoted into his spot I'm guessing he was a supervisor of some sort. So it was his job to tell her what to do. The boss only told him to mind his own buisness afterwards.

Wait, so they fired her yesterday, yet today she was told not to do it? That does not sound right. Unless, of course, she works in a time travelling agency! in which case I bet the new girl is really the boss when she was younger :-)

You dumb or something? Read again, read right. Yesterday, the new girl did a bad thing, the OP stopped her. Today, the boss told her to mind her own business and not interfere with the new girls doing and fired her.

You know all FMLs automatically start with "Today," right?

21, the text says: Yesterday, I stopped the new girl from giving $6,000 to the wrong person. I was fired ON THE SPOT. Now unless in Washington this means something else, she was fired yesterday. 28, I know that all FMLs start with today, however that is a poor excuse. People find all sorts of way around that like "Today I'm unemployed..." or "Today, or to be more precise yesterday...". Although I guess if you remove the "Today" and "FML" parts (so it would appear as submitted) the story sounds right.

Ahaha, #21, way to make yourself look retarded.

I think the "i was fired on the spot" sentence was in reference to when the op was called into her boss' office, even though the op didn't write them together... ...it's just a poorly written fml.

whoops, didn't mean to comment twice.
borabora1991 0
it wouldnt have used any more or less characters to put the "i was fired on the spot" sentence after she talked about being called into the office as opposed to putting it after talking about stopping the new girl from making a mistake.

You're right. They have no lives. Not like you. No no. You have a fantastic life if you have time to tell people they don't have lives for discussing an FML. As fantastic as mine for pointing this out ;D

dudeitsdanny, your life is fantastic. :)

I bet the new girl is a relative of the boss or is ******* the boss.
