Bad hair day

By Tony - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff

Today, I was fired for having a haircut that was 'inappropriate for the workplace'. I have alopecia. My boss told me to stop making up excuses. FML

you need to get some free legal advice, just call any lawyer in the phonebook and ask for a consultation. you are a new client, so the first 30 min is free.

Alopecia is the universe's way of telling you that you should be bald. Shave your head and hope that you don't have a raisin scalp.

YDI for being a hypochondriac, for being employed, for having poor taste in haircuts, and for even having hair at all.

Also, he deserves it for having a head in which hair can grown.

Its not a disease the just goes away like a cold, Its thought to be genetic because it tends to show in families, but the genes havnt been isolated yet. Op go to the doc and see if you can try steriod injections or a steriod cream on the hair loss. If all else fails you can always shave it or get a wig. Still your boss needs a kick in the pants for firing you, unless it was based on your performance as an employee.

i say you sneak up on your boss when he(or she)'s not looking, and cut random bald patches into his hair, so he can see how it feels, the insensitive *******! to be honest, you're better off not working in a place that doesn't even recognize that you have a disease. (to the people saying they should wear a wig) why should you have to wear a wig? covering up your disease just so other people can look at something they find 'aesthetically pleasing' is pointless, it's not your fault you have alopecia :@. definitely sue, im pretty sure that counts as discrimination or something? they shouldn't be able to fire you for something you have no control over, like alopecia. good luck, i hope your alopecia gets better, such a shame :/
