Today, my store manager told me I was fired. I'm not sure what's more insulting - that he'd fire me, or that he forgot I haven't worked there in four months. FML
CapnCrunchKat tells us more.
OP here. I don't have time to reply to every single comment, so here's the answers to all of your questions: 1. I was there because I was shopping. I work retail. Duh. "Store manager". 2. I resigned four months ago, with this manager witnessing. Also, I'm not a "he". Lol.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You could've missed work for four months and still had a job.

I thought it was pretty self explanatory that you were shopping there. But thanks for the follow up!

Autocorrect indeed

I just figured you'd gotten an email or something. But shopping there makes sense too.

even 'were you fired up' doesn't make much sense. also, autocorrect doesn't assume you meant we're instead of were, you have to actually pick that from the list. In my experience at least.

You should've asked him for his manager for poor customer service

Any chance of a follow up with why he wanted to fire you? I'm wondering if he thought you were doing on company time, mixed you up, someone who had heard your name blamed you for their mistakes?

If you quit four months ago why do you still call him your manager?

Why would you say, "my store manager" if you are no longer employed there? Weird wording…
