My boss is blaming me for something that is not my fault. I tried to explain to him that it wasn't my fault but he's not hearing me. He's expecting me to have taken care of something that he never told me he needed me to do or how he wanted it done. Argh!!

I agree with the previous advice of discussing a possible misunderstanding with him. Tell him you didn't understand that he wanted you to do this, but now that you do, ask him what you can do to help resolve the situation now. Once this particular problem is handled, then ask him what you can do to make communication clearer between the two of you; as part of that discussion you can diplomatically point out to him that, perhaps, putting expectations in writing in the future might be helpful to you both. If these things don't work and he insists on making it an issue at review time, or holding it against you during salary administration, then (and only then) get HR involved.

Closed mouths do not get feed. Ask them to step aside with you and explain the situation...never be afraid of someone who breaths the same air as you, what are they gonna do...
1. Hear you out.
2. Fire you
And I doubt they would fire you, showing some class and talking to them may be far more impressive plus if they did you would have a case against them. Good luck

If your boss is unfair or just a jerk in general the best way to handle this is to work as hard as you can to make them look good and get them promoted.............end of problem!

Apologise (for the misunderstanding or for not meeting his expectations). Ask him to forgive you. Ask him if he will give you another chance. Talk through the misunderstanding because there may be something you or he is missing. Try to understand each other.

unfair, no doubt... bosses hire workers to solve their problems. Maybe its just managing expectations...

Discuss it in private with your HR rep and determine your options.
