Today, I decided to go all-natural and go to work without any makeup on. My boss swore I was on drugs, which I guess had absolutely nothing to do with the completely "random" drug test I had to take later in the day. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went into work for the first time without make-up. My boss thought I looked so tired and ill that he sent me home. FML
Today, I was written up at work and sent home 20 minutes into my shift. My boss thought I was under the influence of something, but it’s really just the first time I’ve come to work with no makeup on. FML
Today, I decided not to wear any makeup. I got told 13 times at work that I looked ill. FML
Today, I had a morning shift at the restaurant and didn't feel like wearing makeup. I was energetic and greeted everyone happily, but my manager told me I looked tired. I said, "Oh no I'm just not wearing makeup!" He said, "Well, you might need it." FML
Today, I found out why I receive random drug tests at work. The safety department was specifically told by my boss to check up on me because I always seem way too cheerful to not be high. I've passed every single test. FML
Today, my boss called me out for a drug test. His reason was because my eyes are puffy and bloodshot, making me look high. I've been suffering from allergies all week, but still had to pee in a cup in front of a complete stranger. FML
Today, my boss decided to have the whole staff drug tested and fire everyone who failed. Out of an original staff of 14 people, only my boss, two coworkers and I remain. I now have four times my normal workload and am seriously thinking maybe I should've said "Yes" to drugs. FML
Today, for the first time, I decided to just be myself at work. My boss thought I was drunk. FML
Today, I asked my manager if wearing makeup was a requirement for the job. She told me, "Not if you're naturally pretty... So for you, yes". FML
Today, I'm a proud non drug user, but I trusted an oat cookie at my brother's birthday, which was loaded with pot. Tomorrow is our mandatory drug screening at work, my job is government based, and I worked my ass off to get it. Anyone who tests positive or misses the test is sacked immediately. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Happens to the best of us, OP. Whenever I go to school without makeup it seems everybody asks if I'm feeling ok when I'm absolutely fine.

If you go to work everyday with makeup. Then that is how people expect to see you every day so when you go all natural they are not use to seeing you without makeup.

There was this goth girl in my entrepreneur class who wore an obscene amount of black eyeshadow. I kid you not she looked like a panda. Well one day she didn't wear any and when I saw her I screamed. I felt so awful but in my defense she looked like she was on bath salts. My point is you should probably try to slowly wean off of it before going cold turkey. Maybe go lighter or try natural shades.

Geez can't a girl go all natural sometimes? Seems like something's wrong with us when we decide not to wear makeup. Our skin needs a breather sometimes!!

Your boss is pretty darn stupid.

I am really surprised at all the comments here. When wearing make-up, you look better. People get used to that look. So when you stop wearing make-up, why are you offended because you look worse? Women look ill without their eye make-up due to the differences in color and the lack of eyeliner etc. Don't blame them, blame the make-up.

There's a reason why they say the magics in the make-up!

Yeah, I used to wear make up religiously. Then on several occasions, people would ask me if I was feeling okay, if I was feeling ill or they would comment on how "drained" or "tired" I looked! Really boosted my ego! :)

This is why I never wear make up plus the cost of it. The one time you don't wear it if you do everyday people assume something is wrong. Natural beauty is best. Just take care of your skin and you won't have problems.
