Today, I was fired from my new job before my first paycheck for taking 2 days off. I took 2 days off because my father got drunk and totaled my car, leaving me with no transportation, a hospitalized dad, property damage, and no money to pay for it all. FML

Hope your dad’s okay. That way you can tear him a new one.

In no way does it say that they loaned the car. Dad probably stole the car for the night, and that’s likely what happened. Don’t put words there like you know the whole situation.

When you are on probation for a job they can fire you for any reason. You needed a Lyft/Uber/Taxi/bus, something. Get to work, keep the job, and tack the travel receipts on to your case for compensation for grand theft auto. You are suing for damages yes?

Today, I got drunk and totaled my son's car. He lost his job before his first paycheck and now has no money to fix it so I can go to the bar. He can't afford my beer either. FML

You probably could have paid for it if you had gone to work

tons of places have access to zero public transportation and costly uber/lyft/taxi rides.

honestly sounds like dad has a problem that every one would know about (drinking) . in that scenario when you knew he was gonna drink I would have hidden my keys I do it around litterally anyone whorls drinking but losing your job is your fault. missing work because you don't have a car isn't an excuse. you weren't hospitalized and your dad wasn't dying. you could have gotten ahold of a coworker or even your manager to help find a ride it's embarrassing especially when you don't know anyone, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I was a waitress (18) and once I walked half way to work which was on the other side of town and caught a ride with a stranger and prayed I didn't die that day, all because my car had a flat and I couldn't afford to miss work
