Today, my boss fired me because his girlfriend wanted the job I had. She has no experience whatsoever in my line of work, it was just his "anniversary present" for her. FML

Today, I was driving to work and I got a text from my girlfriend. She said she was breaking up with me. I was a little heartbroken, but I had to get on with my day. I got to work and my boss fired me. Turns out, my boss and girlfriend have been having an affair and she told him to fire me. FML

Today, I was fired from a managerial position I've held for two years due to "inappropriate relations with a subordinate": I was dating a coworker. My girlfriend then broke up with me four hours later. Because I no longer had a job. I hired her. FML

Today, my boyfriend was fired. After breaking the news, he also broke up with me. Apparently, his boss had a creepy crush on me and would give my boyfriend bonuses for bringing me to company events and, occasionally, out on the boss's personal boat. Looks like I am no longer useful. FML

Today, someone had been stealing my brownie at work every day, so I sprinkled cocolax on one and waited to find out who the culprit was. Turns out it was my manager. Needless to say, I'm fired. FML

You do have to wonder how crappy an employee the OP must have been if his only redeeming quality is his girlfriend's cookies.

Or how much of an asshole his boss was that the only reason he kept OP on was the girlfriend baked cookies.

Lol I think that'd make him a really nice boss... Keeping someone on the pay roll only because if cookies...... Easy job lol

Your boss basically fired you for getting dumped. You could take him to court for firing you without reasoning.

Sounds like BS to me, I love the shit people say they got fires for on here. It's called wrongful dismissal people and gives you grounds to sue

Make a batch of cookies, put laxatives, go to your boss and say they are the last present from your ex, stand back and watch as hilarity ensues. Worth it.
