Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Late stage capitalism
Today, I got laid off. I spent the last two months planning a conference for my company. They fired me the day before the conference. I skipped my ex-boyfriend's funeral to be at the first day of this job. FML

Today, I got fired after three days at my new job. They told me it was because of downsizing. They were still interviewing people and had a help wanted sign in the window. FML

YOLO
Today, I was offered my dream job. When I gave my current employer my 2+ weeks notice so they'd have time to find a replacement, I was told to pack up and leave immediately. Now I'm out a month's pay because I gave notice instead of just leaving. FML

Decisions, decisions
Today, my marriage is one week away. Despite all the challenges we faced during COVID, we powered through everything. Today is also the day my work decided to tell me they're letting me go. I now have to either go on my improvised honeymoon or job hunt. FML

Memory error
Today, I lost my job for taking an unauthorized vacation. I just got married and requested time off for the wedding and honeymoon months ago; it was approved then. They forgot, and then got angry because I didn't remind them. I did remind them, the day before I left. FML

Nothing for money
Today, my boss told me I was fired 3 weeks ago because there's no money to pay me, meaning that I worked the last three weeks for free. FML

Today, after three interviews, I accepted an offer for my dream job and submitted my notice. The company called me to say they couldn't contact my referees and have now withdrawn the offer. I'm now officially unemployed. FML

Today, I found out less than three weeks before my wedding that my fiancé will lose his new, great paying job, unless we cancel our nonrefundable honeymoon. FML

Are they allowed to do that? I thought jobs had to give you notice.

It depends on the business if they give you an advance notice of you being let go... It would be cruel but perhaps your boss is going to give your job back as a wedding gift if he was invited...I wouldn't bet on it though

Hopefully the wedding goes well and the bills don't get overwhelming

At least you can have a very lengthy honeymoon

That's terrible, I hope you don't have to cancel the wedding. Good luck to you two love birds!

Don't jobs have severance check when they don't give you notice?

OP was only there for 3 months. You have to put in some serious time at the company to get any semblance of a severance package

I got a severance package from my last job, even though I only spent 2 months there.

at least you don't have to hurry back to work after the honeymoon.

That happened to a friend of mine but don't worry you'll get back on your feet soon

3 months isn't a very long time to be at a company. Maybe they just didn't like having you as an employee.

Vendor's are typically paid two weeks before the wedding... so technically should not have to fork out more cash at least. Enjoy your wedding and honeymoon and then come back refreshed and ready to start interviewing for new positions.

Congrats on the wedding. Sorry about the job.
