Today, I was fired for being late to work, even though the only reason I was late was because I had to stop at Starbucks to get my boss a drink. His son, who is at least 30 minutes late to work every day, was just walking in as I was walking out with all of my stuff. FML

Talk to the HR committee! They will help you. Or at least tell us that you threw the coffee in his face!

I feel like this is one of those FMLs where we didn't get the whole story.

We're you told to get the drink or were you just doing it to get on your boss's good side?

Maybe you could have borrowed the casually sitting turd from one of the previous fml's for his coffee.

You are better off. People like that aren't worth working for.

Lots of people worked for George W. Bush and he was freaking king of cronyism. Regardless of one's politics, he hired people he liked regardless of qualifications. A paycheck is still a paycheck.

Do you happen to work for a fashion magazine with Meryl Streep as your boss? Seriously, though, that's messed up. I hope you find a better job where they actually value your hard work.

If bringing your boss his coffee is a part of your duties, then it is not a valid excuse for being late. YDI.

op, did your boss drink the coffee still hahha

If you had already gave him the coffee I would have taken it right out of his hands spit in it then dropped it in the trash can then walked out only for the reason I think if you dumped it on him he could press charges

So did you keep the coffee? Throw it at his face? Drank it? Spilled it? Gave it to his son? I need answers dam it!

Hopefully they have an HR department. Smaller places sometimes don't.
