Today, a close friend told me she had no plans for her birthday. I found out she was lying when I had to serve her and nine other mutual friends dinner at the restaurant I work at. I don't know what's worse, the fact that I wasn't invited or that none of them even remembered that I worked there. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it was my best friend's birthday party. Her boyfriend and I agreed to organize a dinner date to surprise her and celebrate. They celebrated, but forgot me until they arrived at the restaurant and saw the dinner reservation under my name. FML
Today, it was my co-worker's birthday but she told me not to mention it. Feeling bad for her, I went out to buy her a card, a present, and even a small cake. It turns out that there was actually a party during our lunch break, and I was the only one in our office not invited. FML
Today, I found out that my best friend was having a birthday party and I wasn't invited. I had just finished planning a surprise party for her. FML
Today, I'd planned a surprise party for my best friend's birthday. However, she apparently found out about it and told me at the last minute she couldn't make it, probably to avoid being the center of attention. I'd already invited all of our mutual friends, so I had to awkwardly cancel the party. FML
Today, I found out my best friend had 3 birthday parties for herself over the weekend. I wasn't invited to any of them. When I asked her why, she said I "didn't fit in" to any of the groups that were at the parties. All my other friends were invited. FML
Today, I celebrated my birthday with my friend who has the same birthday by going out to dinner with a bunch of our friends. The waiter brought out a cake for my friend but not for me. No one noticed my exclusion. I sang happy birthday on my birthday. FML
Today, I spent a lot of money buying a birthday gift for a close friend, only to find out I'm not even invited to the party. FML
Today, I was invited to a birthday dinner at a restaurant. As I was leaving, I get a text from the birthday girl's boyfriend saying that it was cancelled. Hungry, I decided to go to that particular restaurant anyway. Turns out the party wasn't cancelled. Half the party just didn't want me there. FML
Today, I found out my best friend was having a birthday party and I wasn't invited, so I asked her why. She replied, "What birthday party?" It was a surprise birthday party. FML
Today, it's my birthday and I'd arranged a dinner party for 20 of my closest friends. I arrived at the restaurant, fully dressed and everything. When I got there, I thought everyone was ready to surprise me, but instead, nobody showed up. FML

Yeah I don't know about that "close friend" part...

Damn OP. She is obviously not a good friend. Let her/them go and move on! You deserve someone who would treat you right and not do that crap to you! She's obviously being fake. Go find someone worth your time!

I wouldn't risk my job and behave unprofessionally because of a personal grudge. Shit like this done by people who would are the reason no one takes hospitality jobs seriously or respects anyone working them.

It's just a little boogers and cum!

Close friend my ass... Charge them double. That's shitty.
XxDanno316xX 27
How exactly do you charge someone double? I mean I would notice if I was charged 20 dollars for a 10 dollar dish...
klorehore 24
So you can look like an ass AND get fired
olpally 33
11, I wouldn't care at that point. They've made their decision.
Blake77_fml 19
Because bad friends are a great reason to get fired

There's always that one "friend"
False_Stupidity 42
And in this case there are 10 of them! OP sure has been dished up a serving of bad luck in the friendship game.

That's not nice...I hope they tipped you well at least?
klorehore 24
Hope you served that food in a way that made them worried what you might have done to it.
Earl_KarmasBitch 36
Yeah. No need to actually do anything. Just serve them the food and tell her you've included something extra special just for her. If she complains to your boss you simply have to say "She's a good friend. I meant I included extra basil cause it's her birthday and she came to my workplace just so she could be with me on her birthday."

That sounds like Penny serving Sheldon at the Cheese Cake Factory.
