Today, I was sent to a customer's house to switch out a washing machine. My boss had assured me that everything I'd need was already in the truck. Halfway there, I ran out of gas and I realized I didn't have the gas card. My boss says it's my fault. FML

Today, I had to drive down to my parents' house. On they way down, I needed to fill up on gas but unfortunately I'd forgotten my wallet at home with all of my cash and credit cards. I then had to call triple A and explain to them in all seriousness how I ran out of gas at the gas station. FML

Today, when paying for gas, I realized I'd forgotten my wallet back home. After a moment of panic, I managed to remember my card number. I paid, blowing the cute cashier's mind, and drove away, before my car started sputtering and slowed to a crawl. I'd used the wrong fuel. FML

Today, after replacing several components on my new used car, I realized that the reason it wasn't getting the gas mileage it was supposed to because my coworkers take turns siphoning my gas while I work. FML

Today, I ran out of gas while driving, and had to call a tow truck. I drive a tow truck. FML

Today, after closing down the gas station I work at, I went to unlock the door to the building. Turned out the lock broke and I was locked inside until my boss could get there to let me out. FML

Today, I was sitting at home when I remembered that I desperately needed gas for my car. On my way there, I prayed that my car would make it the whole way, and was thankful when I pulled up to the pump, because I knew my car wouldn't go any further. Then I realized I left my wallet at my house. FML

Today, I went in my car to a very important job interview. I was out of gas, so I had to get some on the way. When i was done pumping, I went to get back in and the door handle broke off on the driver's side. Then I blew a tire on a piece of metal. Needless to say, I lost my chance. FML

Today, I returned home from a 2-day trip. Before I left, I told my brother to move my car across the street when the street cleaner passes by. Turns out, he used all my gas and got so wasted he forgot to move my car. I got a big ticket that he said he'd pay for. He's unemployed and lives off me. FML

Today, I was expected by my supervisor to drive out to one of our office's server locations. My car was dead and I couldn't go unless he gave me a ride, as he's the only coworker local to me; he couldn't because he's on vacation. I sent him a video of my car failing to crank. He responded, "You need to be more mobile." FML

Today, because of the gas crisis in my state, we had to stop taking delivers at the pizza place I work at. Someone asked if we could walk it to them. My manager agreed. FML

I mean if you could see that the gas was on low, why wouldn't you refill it? Kind of your fault, but that's still douchey of your boss.

I don't know why, but the word "douchey" makes me laugh.

The customer is always right. Customer needs to post this as an fml. Today I was supposed to have a washing machine delivered, but the dumbass delivering it ran out of gas and tried to convince me that it was his boss' fault.

How long have you been driving? The gas guage is nearly one of the first things I check before I leave to go anywhere. Your boss said he had everything you needed in the truck... implying the tools to do the job... not implying in anyway that the truck itself had been refueled. YDI for not being more aware.

What a moron, your boss is right. Drivers are always responsible to check the safety and fluid levels of their vehicles BEFORE they drive them, everyday. If your too stupid to look at a gas gauge, you should work where the register has pictures of the food items on the keys...

Totally. The fuel gauge idiot probably has your gas card as well as most of the gas your boss originally put in the truck. Those fuel gauge idiots are a nefarious bunch who will take you down any chance they get. I know it's wrong to generalize, but I ******* hate those guys.

That comment was DocBastard worthy. Perhaps even better than some of what he's posted.

Aw, I'm truly flattered, idoam, but as the saying goes: You throw enough somethings at whatever and a few of them are bound to stick. Obviously I don't know the saying, but I'm willing to bet DocBastard does, and that pretty much says it all. Thanks, though.
