Today, my boss signed and sent me back my timesheet. He named the PDF file "Timeshit". Now I don't know whether he's terrible at spelling, or just expressed his view of my job. FML

Today, my boss chewed me out for correcting several spelling and grammar mistakes in one of his reports. The words "Think you're so damn smart, don't ya?" were uttered. I'm his secretary, and proofreading his shit is part of my job. FML

Spelling Bee

By anda1000douchesscourthispostformistakes - 16/09/2015 13:42 - United States - Meriden

Today, I made it onto my boss's shit-list, after pointing out that he'd misspelled "customer" as "costumer" 6 times in his report, and "college education" as "collage education" twice. It'd be a dick move on his part even if making corrections like this weren't part of my damn job. FML

Today, I was fired. For "lack of attention to details", specifically spelling errors. My now ex-boss misspelled the name of his own company on my severance agreement. FML

I'm not paid enough for this shit

Today, my boss asked me to send an email on his behalf with an important report attached. I've already received 3 responses from directors commenting on poor spelling and factual errors. I get paid 1/4 the salary of my boss and he can't even write properly. FML

Today, my boss sent me some application forms to check over. After I spell-checked them and returned them, I found out they're going to be used to hire someone to replace me. FML

Can't be bothered

Today, my boss said he was giving me a significant raise. After he requested the payroll department to raise my salary they informed him he needed to fill out a one-sheet form. He took my raise away because he didn't want to fill the sheet out. FML

Today, my boss made me type up my own written warning, where I had to trash myself and describe my own "shocking incompetence". All the department heads are going to receive a copy of this. FML

Cursive

Today, my boss and I were preparing a lunch order for a nearby real-estate agency. I noticed that the order was riddled with spelling mistakes, so I laughed and mocked the realtors, calling them stupid and incompetent. My boss then pointed out that the order was written in his handwriting. FML

"How best do I convey to my employee that I don't find his work satisfactory? Telling him might be ambiguous. OH! I'll name his timesheet 'timeshit'! Clear as day!"

I don't see FML with this, rather it hilarious to me.

He hates paperwork, and timesheets in particular

Either way.....you either work for an incredibly stupid guy, you should reevalute your job; or he really doesn't give a shit and you should reevaluate your job...

Sounds like he didn't mean either one but meant you specifically.

Idk... Sometimes I name my files stupid things like "schedule shit" and "stupid Monday junk", so maybe it was a silly joke?

My first paying photo gig, I labelled the folder 'Money Shots' because I was getting money - obviously. I learned a valuable vocabulary lesson a couple days later.

He's probably from a different country, and that's how he hears and says it. I had a bakery boss from Albania once, and his accent made him say "shit cake" instead of "sheet cake." I'm sure the situation is similar.
