Work, Health and Cancer: Honest mistake

Honest mistake

By YahItsMe94 - 25/06/2009 07:20 - United States

Today, was my first day back at work since my wife got breast cancer. I come in and see some people with pink slips and frowns. When I get to my desk I find a pink slip, I go up to my boss and start to curse him out for firing me. Only to find out my pink slip was a fundraiser for my wife. FML

Today, we had a family day at my new job. I used to have a very abusive boss in my previous position, who even slapped one co-worker across the face in the office, prompting me to quit. Guess who turns out to be my new manager's wife… FML

You shouldn't curse your boss out like that even if he did fire you. You lose any recommendation he could give you.

let your boss know that you were really stressed, and jumped to a conclusion and apologize to him. if you did so, i'm sure he'd understand.
