TIFU Got fired for asking for a raise

Not today but a couple weeks ago. I was at this company for over a year (first 3 months with a temp agency). I was a Production Team Member on paper. They had me running the area I was in as a trainer for new temps and as a lead, directing the team what to do. I also was handling inbound orders and parts inventory. Everyone was expected to train new people at this company so I wasn't concerned about that. However, the responsibilities of a lead, handling orders and parts inventory are responsibilities that were put directly on me. I also learned Google Sheets specifically to improve their spreadsheets and make them more user friendly when looking up parts or seeing what we had in inventory. I designed brand new sheets and implemented processes that improved productivity across all of production. After a year, I asked some of my coworkers and they agreed that with everything I do, I should be making much more than I was. I wrote a well thought out and detailed message to my boss explaining why I felt a raise was justified at this time. After meeting with him a couple times, my raise was declined. I was told that my pay rate is competitive. To be honest, I'm not good at handling my emotions when the unexpected happens. So when this information hit me like a freight train, I broke down. I went home and spent the weekend trying to understand. When I got it on Monday, I decided I would do the job I was paid to do and not all the extra that I wasn't being compensated for. I requested a meeting with my boss to explain where I stand on this. After lunch we went into a meeting and I was told I'm not a culture fit and got fired. Now, over 2 weeks and 60+ applications later and I can't even get an interview. TLDR:Requested compensation for additional responsibilities, got declined, "quiet quit", got fired, can't find work now.

UPDATE FOR CLARIFICATION I didn't ever get a chance to tell my boss I was quiet quitting. That day I went about doing my job and nothing extra. I was planning to talk to him about it but instead of getting the chance in the meeting, I got fired.

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
