Today, my boss told me to fire the unstable, former military, gun nut employee. He's been making death threats to his supervisors. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my spineless shitwhip of a boss made me go fire a notoriously abusive employee. I had to act like firing him was my decision, even though I'm the secretary. Now I get to live in constant fear that the guy was serious when he threatened to find out where I live and kill me. FML
Today, my boss made sure to do one last thing before he retired. Fire me. FML
Today, at my new job at a funeral home, my boss threatened to fire me if I didn't "lighten the hell up" while dealing with our grieving clients. FML
Today, my boss gave me the task of firing a recently-hired coworker next Friday. This guy spends most of his off-hours working out, probably abusing the fuck out of steroids, and to whom prison is like a bed-and-breakfast. I fear for my life by this point. FML
Today, a customer at work made threats against me and my two-month old son. Instead of following policy by notifying the police, my manager apologized to him and told me to leave. FML
Today, my boss threatened to fire me for killing him in Minecraft. 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
Today, my boss asked if he could pay me in guns. FML
Today, my boss is still refusing to fire my psychotic coworker, who's made it his mission to insult, annoy, bully and threaten me every day into making me quit. My boss is convinced the guy just has "assburger's" and that the company would get sued if we fired him. FML
Today, I tried to fire the worst worker I've ever had over the phone because he never shows up for work anymore. He said no and went crazy. HR and the police are now involved. FML

Firing anyone sucks, but especially one who makes death threats? That's really nice of your employers to do to you.

Maybe he's a believer in "don't shoot the messenger"

Firing someone is never pleasant, regardless how bad they are at their job. Regarding the threats, there are legal ways you can deal with it (if common sense fails).

The man : "he fired me, so I fired a gun at his head" o.O

firing goes both ways... I would say report the threats to HR so they can take care of it rather than you..

So uh, if he's threatening to kill people, maybe, instead of making you do it, they should have CALLED THE ******* COPS.

If he's making death threats they should really have some sort of security there with you when you fire him.

Be a true employee and delegate the job... To the supervisors in question, he can't kill them all at once.
