Unnerved

By Greenskies - This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff - France - Corneilla-del-vercol

Today, I was talking to my boss at the end of an awesome internship. He said he was really satisfied with my work, and that he had considered hiring me. Turns out he decided not to because I smile too much, and it freaks him out. FML

Make sure you smile and keep eye contact as long as possible the last time you'll see him!

uses positive attitude to refer to a positive attitude. so much on the bright side. too little cynicism.

That's an awful reason not to hire someone. You can probably do better anyways. You don't want to work for someone who has that kind of attitude.

I don't know, maybe OP's smile was coming across more psychopathic-serial-killer-looking and less enthusiastic-employee-looking

#26 I don't see how that could possibly happen. *smiles politely and innocently at #26, with a sharp pointy knife in one hand and the severed head of a bunny in the other*

That's a bit outrageous from his behalf, you're not doing anything wrong but maybe try talk to him about it and hopefully he will change his opinion ! Nothing much you can do with people like him

Just lovely to know we live in a world where people don't get hired because they smile to much

Clearly only the grumpy love their jobs. It makes perfect sense if you don't think about it

It sounds like that FML where someone got fired for being too happy because they thought they were on drugs
