Today, I started my job at a warehouse. I was the only person in my training group who needed help wrapping a pallet. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

First day
Today, at my first day of work, I was impressing my trainer with my skills by carrying many trays at once. Well, I could until I came around a corner and ran into a customer. With food all over his front, he introduced himself to me as the head manager. FML

Today, I started a new yard maintenance job. Before the day had even ended, I got fired, because I apparently didn’t have enough experience, and I moved too slowly. It was supposed to be my training day. FML

Who's the boss?
Today, one of my managers explained to me, very slowly and loudly, what a pallet jack is for. I've been at the warehouse for 6 months now and was actively using a pallet jack at the time. FML

First day
Today, it was my first day working at my new job in a hospital with one day of training for a few hours a week ago. I wasn’t shown around and I was told I wouldn’t be alone today. I was. I got called useless because I’m the new girl who didn’t know where to tell people to go, or how to get there. FML

Exploitation
Today, my supervisor told me to stock the bedding department, so I did all the pallets set out, with an hour to spare to clean up, only for my supervisor to bring out three more once she saw I was done. FML

Today, I'm starting a new job. Only problem is, I haven't been told what my duties are, who my line manager is, or who to ask if I need help. FML

Today, I started the first day of my job as newspaper distributor, after a year of struggling to find a job. I got stuck in an elevator for two hours very early in the morning. FML

Today, I got a badly-needed job at a local discount store. After being hired, I found out I'm to help with the soon-to-begin store closing sale, and I'll be jobless again after 3 months. FML

Safe working conditions
Today, at work, yet another inappropriately stacked pallet fell on me. I thought for sure that I just hit a nerve. Nope, I fractured my arm. FML

just because someone has more experience than you does not mean you won't be good at it. it just means they happened to start before you. I'm sure there's plenty of things you can do but they can't

It’s okay!! You’re learning! I’m sure you’ll be able to do it by yourself in no time :)

You should have said rhyming phrases about an artist's paint tray with a hip-hop beat. Show those motherfuckers how to really "rap a palette!" *Mic drop*

to be fair, I don't think their is a pallet wrapping course in school. so if you haven't done it before, of course you won't be good at it. don't be to worried about it, unless you simply are unable to learn how to do it.
