Today, my boss called me over to his office; he wanted me to fire four hardworking employees. One of them was the girl I was going to ask out. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boss decided our 4 year relationship was unethical, so she broke up with me, then terminated my employment. FML
Today, I was talking to this girl I really like at my work. Everything was going fine until our boss called me into his office. Apparently I was being a little too flirty with his daughter. FML
Today, my girlfriend came to my workplace to tell me she was breaking up with me. My boss, who was passing by, fired me for "chatting with friends" during work hours. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. My boss called me into her office and congratulated me, and spent almost half an hour asking me what our wedding plans were, where we might honeymoon, if we wanted kids, etc. She then followed this by suddenly remembering she had called me into the office to sack me. FML
Today, my boss fired me because he wants to start dating my mother and apparently doesn't want it to be "awkward." FML
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
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, I worked up the nerve to ask my boss for a raise. Today is also the day I found out my boss has a shitlist of employees he wants to fire, and that I'm now on it. FML
Today, I was fired from a managerial position I've held for two years due to "inappropriate relations with a subordinate": I was dating a coworker. My girlfriend then broke up with me four hours later. Because I no longer had a job. I hired her. FML
Today, I was driving to work and I got a text from my girlfriend. She said she was breaking up with me. I was a little heartbroken, but I had to get on with my day. I got to work and my boss fired me. Turns out, my boss and girlfriend have been having an affair and she told him to fire me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your boss is a pussy. He should do it himself.

At least she will have plenty of free time to go on a date with you.

^Cost probably. It is a business, and with all the new taxes starting in the US, we're going to see a lot more people losing their jobs than otherwise would. As for OP, it's probably better that you don't date someone that you have the ability to fire. That's a sexual harassment case just waiting for happen.

Perfect! Now that she's jobless, you can offer to take her out for those dinners she will no longer be able to afford. And soon enough you'll have a new roommate because she'll have to move in with you since she can't pay her rent. You're boss is the best wingman ever!

61-Can I slap you with a dictionary? "You're" is a contraction of "you" and "are", moron. I do, however, agree on taking it easy on Enslaved. Learning 3 languages is no easy feat. Kudos to you.

You shouldn't be dating subordinates anyways so just give her the news nicely and help her find a new job you could even help her with resume work and take her out to dinner to celebrate when she gets a new gig.

Why are they being fired? You can't fire people for no reason. Our district manager used to give "tests" to his managers to see if they would follow through with orders or stand up for their employees. If these employees are really good workers then stand up for them and tell your boss what you know about them. Also are they being fired or laid off? If the latter then you could suggest other less hardworking people if these employees on the block are as hardworking as you say. I am now reminded of a time I was asked to fire a co-worker because my boss didn't want to ruin their friendship. If you are in fact a co-worker rather than their boss then decline to do the job. If you are equal in status to them then you have no right or authority to deliver that news. In this situation your boss is going to have to man up and do it himself.

Many states are right to work meaning no reason is needed to let someone go

You should tell your boss that she is mentally unstable and refuses to accept the fact that you fired her/probably doesn't even remember being fired at this point just like Chandler did in Friends. If you can execute it the way he did on the show, not only will you be dating, but there will also be a promotion in her future. It's a win/win.

So... you lost out on your chance of a date, she lost her job and will have to deal with the stress of unemployment and job-hunting. I'm kinda feeling more sympathy for her right now.
