Today, I discovered that my boss listens to the things we say about him on the audio-enabled cameras at our work. I'm thus currently jobless. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, at work, I stepped out for a few minutes to use the bathroom. Shortly after returning, I found out the hard way that one of my coworkers had used my computer to send a profanity-filled email to our boss, calling him an asshole and telling him to go fuck himself. I'm now jobless. FML

Today, I overheard my boss talking about me on the phone. Turns out he was drunk off his ass when he gave the go-ahead to hire me, and he's now searching for any excuse to legally fire me. FML

Today, I found out my boss likes to shit talk about me when I'm not around. The best part is that I don't know what I've done to piss him off. FML

Today, my boss came into the office asked how I was doing and seemed totally normal and happy, then said, "I have to let you go. I heard some bad things about you." He wouldn't tell me what he heard, or from whom. FML

Today, my boss sat me down to discuss the sounds my co-workers have heard coming from my cubicle. Apparently my music sounds like the background tracks from shitty soft-core porn movies. I'm getting a three day suspension while they go through all my files. FML

America, fix your bathroom stalls

Today, my boss overheard me in a bathroom stall talking about how much I hate my job and couldn’t stand him. He didn’t say a word, I hadn't even heard him come in, I just noticed him staring silently at me through the crack in the stall, before leaving. FML

OP, didn't they teach you that in job 101? You wait until you leave the premises to say anything negative about the place and don't bitch about your work to your coworkers because even if your boss didn't have a camera one of them could still tell him about the conversation. While I feel sorry for you, I still have to say YDI.

For those of you whom are pissed about the word 'thus' in the story, I did not put that there. It was modified to read that. The original was just "I am currently jobless". Thank Ye

coming from the guy who has 'whom' in that statement, i seriously doubt it was modified at all. (: anyhow, thus is a word. hints towards having a brain as well.

Hehe... NEVER badmouth someone until you are at least one mile away. And even then, be careful.

And everyone calling himself "ladiesman" should learn how to spell "grammar" and "eunuch" and then kindly go suck his own rod. Your attempt at Abusive!Troll has failed miserably...unless you intentionally misspelled those words...in which case I accept that you've trolled me.

I think you may be able to sue, depending on your state's laws, due to the cameras being audio-enabled. In some jurisdictions businesses are only allowed to record video. You may be able to get a hefty chunk of change, and if that's the case, I wish you the best in your lawsuit!
