Today, I got fired from my new job. It was the start of my third week, and I got fired for not opening the store. The manager forgot to give me keys to open the store, and was two hours late. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it was my first day of work at my new job. I got dressed and arrived early, only to find out that the store had closed due to a power outage. Then I found out that the person who'd hired me had totally forgotten about hiring me anyway. FML
Today, I got fired from my job because I closed the store 84 seconds early. They found out because the state manager was sitting across the street with binoculars watching me. FML
Today, I got fired for being late. Apparently you're supposed to be on time after your boss specifically tells you that the office will open an hour late. FML
Today, it was my first day as a promoted manager. I got fired for being late. FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, I was supposed to start my new job. I had forgotten I had a doctor's appointment, so I called work early and told them I wouldn't be able to start until tomorrow. My boss then terminated my employment. I got fired before I even started. 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
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
Today, I got a phone call from my boss, who'd hired me after two months of waiting and begging for this position. A week into the job, the company is closing our store. FML

Why didn't you give your boss a wake-up call? Your #1 priority as an employee is to make your boss look good. Letting him oversleep made him look like a lazy, irresponsible ass. Yes, he's a lazy, irresponsible ass, but you're supposed to cover that up!

“The manager forgot to give me keys” sounds more like you forgot to get the keys from your manager

If you knew you were supposed to open the store, you should have asked for the key... Sorry you got fired but it's part of the job.
