Today, I got fired from my job. I caught a customer taking pictures up my skirt, and my boss fired me for calling the police and "making a big deal out of it". FML

Today, I got fired from work. Why? I finally took a stand for myself and confronted my coworker of writing things up in my name for herself, and it getting deducted from my check. So she went to the manager and accused me of sexual harassment. FML

Today, a customer at work became violent and started hitting me and my coworker. Not wanting him to get the shit beat out of us, I used a move that pinned the guy on the ground. The police came and he was arrested. I was then fired for assaulting a customer. FML

Today, my sister got me in deep trouble at the store I worked security for. She "dropped by to say hi" and stole a bunch of things when I wasn't looking. I wasn't arrested, due to lack of any evidence. But my boss didn't care about evidence and fired me anyway. FML

Today, I was fired for being a very happy and perky employee. According to my boss, it freaks both the customers and my co-workers out. FML

Today, I was fired from my job for sexual harassment. I was shopping after work, and I had to get my female manager to give me a package of extra-large condoms from the lockbox. I could not convince her that I was not flirting, and she took it to HR. FML

Today, I got fired from my new waitress job after 2 shifts. They said I wasn't experienced enough to handle the fast pace. I thought I'd been doing well so I asked my friend who works there what really happened. Apparently not showing my boobs enough at a family place was grounds for dismissal. FML

I don't see the problem anyways, most girls wear things showing off most their butt cheeks and half of their cooter anyways. Then they get mad when something like this happens c'mon really? BTW no matter what you try to say to make yourself feel better about your clothes, they still make you look whoreish;)

First off, "most girls" doesn't necessarily mean "this girl". You have no idea how she dresses. Second, I don't know where you live, but here in reality most women don't walk around with their butts cheeks and vaginas exposed. That's illegal. Finally, who the **** cares how any woman who's harassed/molested/assaulted is dressed? She could have been wearing a thong bikini or wearing a nun's habit, that doesn't give anyone the right to her body. What constitutes "whoreish" or "slutty" clothing is entirely subjective and varies from person to person, so you can't place the blame for sexual harassment on clothing. Besides, I've been harassed by men before while completely bundled up in boots/scarves/gloves/bulky winter coats when I have no skin showing - how provocatively you dress has nothing to do with some men's inappropriate behaviour. It's pretty ****** up if you "don't see the problem" with women having to deal with sexual harassment in public spaces.

It was a big deal. You were violated and it's completely within your rights to seek legal help in such a situation. You should contact a lawyer to see if it's possible to get your job back or sue.

wow... and people wonder why women put up with sexual harassment?! here's why: they're afraid to stand up for themselves because their dumbass boss will fire them and think it's no big deal! so, you get to choose to have either your integrity or your job, not both... FYL for sure!!

I'm sorry that customer was so awful to you. Your boss was wrong and maybe broke the law. Many states have exceptions to employment at will for whistleblowers. See an employment lawyer.
