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

Today, I was fired from my job as a waitress, all because someone complained there was too much seasoning in their food. As I said, I'm a waitress. This happened the same week I was hired. FML

That is so unfair. Don't loose your self respect for a job.

You don't want to work at a place like that anyways. You deserve a better job where they actually treat their employees with self respect.

You have to be able to file a complaint about that! That doesn't seem right at all! Good luck, OP!

Today, my cousin left her undisciplined demon-child at my house for Christmas. This child destroyed the other children's gifts and made so much noise that the neighbors called the police.
