Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got my first big promotion at work. Excited, I shared the news with my parents. My mom responded with, "That’s nice, dear, but your sister just got engaged," and hung up to go back to celebrating with her. FML
Today, my boss got a promotion and I got laid off. FML
Today, I got fired. Yesterday was my birthday and I was told I was getting a promotion. FML
Today, I got married. After the ceremony, my sister asked to talk to me. I followed her and she told me that we are no longer related because we don't have the same last name anymore. FML
Today, my little sister, who's still in high school, proved beyond a doubt she's better at my computer repair job than I am. She proved it in front of my customers and my manager, who brushed me aside and offered her a job as soon as she graduates. FML
Today, I got promoted. By promoted, I mean, given a much harder job with no training and no extra pay because someone went on maternity leave. They've already hired someone for my old position. FML
Today, the only colleague I dislike was promoted to be my manager. FML
Today, I got fired from my job. My boss is my brother. His reason being that, "it would create awkward tension between us." I've been working for him for 5 years, and it's like he's only just realised that I was there. FML
Today, I found out that a co-worker of mine that I had originally hired, trained, and mentored to work in my department for the past 4 years had just got the promotion that I had applied for. He is now my boss. FML
Today, the store I work at got shut down and I got let go. Three days ago I got a promotion and a raise. FML

Not your fault she got fired, and your boss has put their faith in you that you'll do the job better. If your sister is mad at you, tell her she shouldn't have done whatever it was that cost her the job.

Not really. The sister could've been fired for a good reason.

if you don't really want a relationship with your sister then this is fine, congratulations, but if you do love your sister and want to maintain a relationship, you'll have to turn down the job.

That’s the worst advice I’ve ever seen

This is an FML comment thread, not Asking Abby. Chill with your "this is bad advice." We're all just losers giving an opinion

Even if she was fired for a good reason, there will be hard feelings. She's right, the relationship will be destroyed. It's unfortunate and its not her fault, but its inevitable

And to make it even worse, it’s a family business.
