Today, I asked my boss for a raise, explaining that another shop offered me a job at a higher rate, but I would stay if he would offer me the same. Instead, he fired me then called the other shop and said I was fired for failing a drug test. FML

WHOA!! What in the actual **** is wrong with your boss?! It's been a long time since my jaw has dropped at an FML!

Your boss is an asshole! There has to be someone you can contact because he is out of line.

YDI for telling your boss where you got the offer. You always tell your current employer as little as possible about interviews or offers until your new job is a sure thing and you put in your two weeks. Just because stuff like this happens.

I don't think your boss should have gone that far, but on the other hand, threatening to leave unless he gives you a raise does sound kinda harsh. Depending on the circumstances, it may or may not have been the right thing for you to do, in my opinion.

that's defamation of character sue his ass off

You can sue him for that cuz that is illegal for him to do on so many levels

If that were my boss, I'd sue him for the entire company.

Your Fulton for telling him where the other job is and u should charge him with wrongful dismissal and you can probaly find a charge for calling potential employers and telling lies
