By ohno - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, due to "severe cuts to the budget" at work, I had to stir my coffee with a paperclip. FML

I'd rather they take the coffee stirrers than the coffee. Or my job. Be grateful for what you DO have.

I don't think it'd work very well, however.

At least you have a job OP, I would be more grateful than whining how I stir a cup of coffee !

Go to any office supply store (OfficeMax, Staples, etc.) and purchase a thousand count coffee stirrer box for 4 bucks.

What does this have to do with the comment you're replying to? Are you giving this random suggestion to commenter 1 or were you just trying to be "cool" and get your comment to the top?

Exactly. People in sub Saharan Arica don't even have paperclips to stir their coffee.

Flockz - wait, THAT's what paper clips are for?! I've been using them to practice my shape-making skills all these years.

Not like it makes a huge difference to your life, it still stirs your coffee!

Over the course of the year, it could add up to more than you think.

They're free if you stea- err um...acquire them from McDonalds. On a serious note, why not just bring a spoon? You can reuse it every day, it's less wasteful, and it's better for the earth.

And before anyone says anything, no I did NOT copy that spoon part. I got ninja'd.

That ain't nothing. At my work, they stop providing coffee and raise prices on food at vending machines. Glad I found another job. Good luck with that though.

When my company had severe cuts to the budget, I was laid off. I would gladly stir coffee with a paper clip.
