Today, I was rejected by a company I applied to. When I was writing my application, I spent so much time on their website researching that the ads on my browser are almost all for their products. It's like getting rejected again with every click. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I spent two hours filling out an online application and questionnaire for a potential employer. The application stated that there were no right or wrong answers and to answer truthfully. I was automatically rejected. FML
Today, my job application for McDonald's was rejected. This is the second time. FML
Today, while despairing over having been rejected for my dream job, I received an email asking me to come back in for another interview. Then they called me to say they accidentally sent the email to all the applicants, and that they definitely aren't interested. FML
Today, I eagerly applied for a high-salary, fully supportive graduate program that I qualified for. There were 5 steps in the application process. I was turned down after the first one. FML
Today, I spent ages applying for a scholarship online. I found out on the very last page that I do not meet the qualifications for it. FML
Today, I was rejected for a job I really wanted, they said I didn't have enough experience. I designed the systems they are implementing. FML
Today, I applied for a new job as a maintenance technician. About 10 minutes after submitting my resume, I received a rejection letter. My girlfriend is their HR person. FML
Today, I received a series of rejection letters from jobs, one after the other. Last night, I stayed up into the wee morning hours to apply to campus jobs I'm not qualified for, because I was classified as a part-time student due to an administrative error. FML
Today, I spent ages writing a draft press release as part of a copywriting job application. I worked really hard and read it through several times before submitting. They emailed me to point out that I'd misspelled the name of the company. Twice. FML
Today, at the one job interview I got after months of applying, I was rejected for what turned out to be a phone customer service role, because I "wasn't technical enough." Previously I worked as a website developer and I have a computer science degree. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Spend hours on a **** site. It'll at least change the type of ads. ... I've heard.

Not only did you not get first comment, but no where in your rambling, incoherent answer did you even come close to anything resembling a comment. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.

I'm so sorry for that comment FML Community someone was using my phone.
Nilorak 24
Yeah right.

So you claim you got first comment, say something stupid realise you were second and then change it to something even worse amd try and cover it up with saying it was someone else. seems legit
gshocker20 21
What if I'm not lying?
morondon000 14
Nobody will believe you anyways.

Does it matter? Of course comments like this are annoying but why waste your time bothering me when you can actually appreciate the FML. I tried to be polite and apologize even when it wasn't me.

I was going to recommend AdBlock, but you beat me to it! :) I have both AdBlock Pro and AdBlock Plus. I never see any ads I don't want to see. :)

I was going to recommend deleting your cookies too. Go to your browser settings.

Or just turn on the Do Not Track feature if you use chrome or safari. It stops personalized advertisements on websites
