Today, my boss threatened to fire me for showing up at work early. His reasoning is that it looks bad when his workers show up before dawn and work later than he does. He assigned me these hours specifically to accommodate one of our clients. FML

OP here. I normally get to work before dawn; so he was just being a dick. I work as a home care provider for a little old lady with severe mental issues, who's husband/primary care provider works early mornings, as he owns his own lawn care business and where I live the heat is oppressive by noon. However, today he had to work late to make up contracted appointments he'd missed last week because of equipment problems; and for once cleared the hour change via the office. Hence, jackhole supervisor acting a fool. As for finding a new job; I plan to finish this one then move on; her husband is retiring in less then a year and she is extremely picky about care givers. I'm one of two that has lasted more then three weeks; and I refuse to put her and her family through finding a new provider like that.

Just watch, stop working early/late he yells at u for lolly gagging

Well accomdativly give him a congrats nutshot

Hope this FML circulates around your office and your boss reads it!

I would have told him to step HIS game up then. It's not op's fault that his boss is a lazy ****. And yes, I have been fired for calling out superiors bullshit. I always found out not too long after, that those jobs weren't worth keeping anyways.

You probably ought to go to work for yourself. When you work for a boss, your job isn't to do your best. It's to make your boss look good. If that kinda bullshit logic doesn't work for you, self-employment is for you.
