Today, I handed out 30 resumes only to find out, after the last resume was handed out, my brother had changed the last sentence of every paragraph to 'I am a massive douche bag.' FML

Today, I applied online for a position and typed, "OH&S Certificate." It autocorrected to, "OH&SHIT Certificate." I didn't notice until the site e-mailed me a copy of my completed application. They'd already received it. FML

Just a prank, bro

Today, I had a job interview. I was feeling upbeat and confident I was gonna get the position, until I saw that my main qualification on my resume was being a "real n**ga" and "getting bitches and hoes 24/7." My brother had changed it as a prank. FML

Today, I e-mailed an employer to ask about a job I had applied for earlier. The employer in question was on vacation. The person who replied had the position which I had applied for mentioned in their signature. FML

Today, my job application got denied once again. I looked over it, and saw that my roommate added "screwing over customers" and "hiding dead bodies" under my skills. FML

Today, my sister felt guilty and told me about the changes she secretly made to my résumé months ago. She'd put "doing your mom" and "corporate espionage" as my hobbies, and "Justin Bieber's pussy waxer" as a previous job. No wonder I'm still unemployed. FML

Today, I realized that the guy I've been sending anonymous, dirty emails to knows who I am. My signature, which includes my full name, was automatically added to the end of every email. FML

That's hilarious, your brother got you good! Why didn't you read over the application yourself before sending it in, though?

Maybe its not that, maybe the boss wouldve accepted it, but maybe you mispelled something, and he is a grammar nazi! XD

YDI because its not like the signature was hidden, it comes on the bottom of every email. Especially if its an important email, you tend to check that email a lot to make sure there aren't any mistakes.

I wanna say FYL for having a brother that would do that, but YDI for not looking over the applocation before sending it instead of after :/

When doing anything professionally related with your system it's good to double check before sending it. Especially if you don't keep your stuff locked down. One of those situations that it's hard to tell if apologizing and explaining could make it worse. If they have a sibling they may find it funny.

How professional could this job or person be? They seem to live with an obnoxious little brother, so most likely with her parents. She was emailing a resume not even handing it in. I bet it's for some basic job, nothing in the corporate world. Probably in response to a craigslist job post.

No, MOST corporate-level jobs have online application submission. Then, once you reach a certain level, you get jobs thru your network - i.e sending a resume by email after being referred by an insider.

HAHAHA THE LORD'S PLACE TO JUDGE. Ahhh, yeah we should just overlook the killing of millions of people because "anyone could have done it", and its ok, God will give them a kick up the arse when they go and see him. Yes, of COURSE i'm being sarcastic, have some common sense.
