Today, I got written up for drinking on the job by a manager who drinks on the job, who was told to write me up by a general manager who drinks on the job, and we are all employed by an owner who drinks on the job. I haven't had a drink in 3 weeks. FML

DJJayLee tells us more.

strip clubs aren't union. we have a total of 14 employees at this club and the GM would rather fire everyone and hire new people than deal with that. I'm 1 of 3 that have worked here longer than a year.

Where on earth do you work, the liquor store?

Really hoping none of your bosses opperate heavey machinery at your place of work.

Well. Cheers mate. You just escaped from a hole!

Maybe the write up is illegible and no one can remember.

I don't know how it works in America but in England you can go to a police station and ask them to breathalise you so you have a legal document saying you are sober at that time. You can also buy mini breathalisers. Maybe get one so next time you are accused you can prove then and there that you are sober. If they don't accept that test go and get checked buy the cops so you can prove it's a false write up. Or you could start AA meetings just to get the sober chips, that might stop another write up.

the closest police station is 20 minutes away and only open 4 hours after I get off work. on top of that, I was written up for an incident that happened weeks prior to the writeup so there wasn't even video footage from the security cameras because those get overwritten after 2 weeks.

But why does it matter that he hasn't had a drink in three weeks? I do think it is wrong he got written up when everyone has been drinking. But the world is unfair unfortunately.

because he clearly wasn't drinking on the job if he hadn't had one in three weeks? how does it not matter that he hadn't had one in three weeks?!

It matters that he hasn't drank in three weeks because it means that he wasn't drinking on the job.

#48 I know the world is unfair. I just find it ironic you chose to educate the fml community of the fact!

Well there's the problem! Drunk people can't tell who's drunk or who's sober.

There's always a good reason to drink

If you took time to fully read the FML, you would see the OP said he hasn't had a drink in three weeks.
