What an asshole..
He probably didn't mean for this to happen though...
Still a douchy thing to do
Show him your coworkers email
Well your boss should ask for an explanation, and then you tell him what happened. If he didn't, he is not worthy of being a 'boss'.
I feel like this is something that would be discussed in person anyways. Then again, I work in a small business where the boss has time to pull me aside and say "sorry but we are laying you off"
I really hope OP posts back after to let us know how things went. I'm dying with suspense here.
What I really hoped happen is that the coworker faces up to what he/she did, and talked to OP's boss. It may mean they get fired, but it's not okay for their stupid prank to make someone else lose their job. Even considering coworkers I've really disliked in the past, I would never wish them to be fired over a mistake I made. This world can be unfair enough on its own at times.
That's definitely illegal
At my BF's job they are required to lock their computers if they leave their desk, because the information they deal with is private. So if some unlucky newb forgets to lock theirs, they may have 'unintentionally' sent a few emails about how they are going to Justin Beiber concerts, get a few new backgrounds put up.. Or in extreme cases send a resignation email. Thankfully though the boss usually sends an email back, cause she's used to it.
100% illegal. You were deceived by someone claiming to have that authority and you responded accordingly. Go get your job back.
Show your boss the email and get the other asshole canned! WAIT, he emailed you while you were at work? Did you just get up and leave or do you mean that you didn't show up the next day?
Co-worker doesn't necessarily mean friend. I've had a lot of asshole co-workers.
Tell your ex-boss to look in his Sent Mail folder. Then, tell him you want your co-worker's job.
If that's the case, OP can ask for their old job.
Why didn't you try to explain or show him the email?
Pretty sure it does.
13-"...I was at work when a co-worker thought it would be funny..." Reading. It's good for you.
8- you're kidding, right?
8, It definitely sounds odd, since you'd need to clear up a few things like getting your final paycheck, returning company property, etc etc but to say you deserve to be fired because of some prank? Uh...no.
Revenge is also sweet. Is revenge ice cream? I like ice cream. :D
Show him the email, but you should have gotten written up not fired for a warning..
