Today, my boss called me into his office. After yelling and firing me, his assistant comes in telling him he had mistaken me for someone else. He did not give me my job back, as he claimed it would make an awkward work environment. FML

Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML

Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML

The truth

Today, my boss called me into his office. He then fired me. Upset, I asked him, "Well, who's gonna replace me?" His answer was, "I don't know and don't care. Everyone who works here hates you. Now go away." FML

Today, I had the great pleasure of meeting my replacement, who was sitting at my desk in my office. My boss must've forgotten to mention to me that I've been fired. 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, my boss threw me out of her office during a conference call for daring to correct her. The client fired the company because she subsequently got all the information on the call wrong, and plainly had no idea what was going on. From all the screaming, this is now all my fault. FML

Today, at work one of my co-worker was oddly nice to me; and my boss, who usually always says hi to me, didn't look or speak to me. Later that day I found out that I was going to be fired, not because my boss told me but because my picture was missing from the wall of employees. FML

You can use the assistant as a witness and sue your boss for Wrongful Termination

Some how I think the assistant will "dis-remember".

This is America, shouldn't you be suing him for everything he has ever owned or loved?

Now that he's not your boss, make his life hell! Tell him exactly what you think about him, key his car, etc, be creative

Shove a lawsuit up his ass! For wrongful termination. That's just so unfair that he laid you off to salvage his reputability. I mean, he is probably already lacking in honorableness, which is made obvious by his deficits in moral competence. Some people have real nerve. He couldn't admit he made a mistake. I'm sure he's an egotistical scumbag and you're better off now that you don't have to work for that terrible person anymore. Don't fret too much OP. You'll get a much better job next time.

Your boss is an idiot for one. How do you run a company if you don't know your employees? Two I really really really hope you get your job back. It's unfair he was wrong yet wont fix it, it sounds like the only thing your boss thinks awkward Is having to admit he was wrong and stupid. Get some legal help and I sincerely hope you set your job back.
