Today, at school, I got stuck in the elevator and was about to panic before I remembered I had my phone. I called my mother and she called the school to tell them that I was stuck. They got me out in a few minutes and then confiscated my phone and gave me two detentions for using it in school. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my friend's phone rang in class and my teacher thought it was me, so now I have detention for a week. FML
Today, as I was yelled at by a middle school teacher in front of 30 6th graders for breaking the rule of "no cell phones in school." Luckily, I escaped being sent to the office after explaining I'm a 21 year old college student doing student teaching observations, not a middle schooler. FML
Today, after working out at the gym, I went to grab my bag, and realized that my phone was missing. Panicking, I reached into my pocket, pulled out my phone, and dialed my mom's number to tell her I'd lost it. It took me until the last ring to realize what I was doing. FML
Today, my teacher yelled at me for using my phone in class. I apologized out loud, knowing that it would help me get off easier. She was yelling at somebody else. FML
Today, I forgot to bring a letter to my secondary school, so I went to detention. I told them it got lost, but it's only when my parents phoned and told them the same thing that they believed it. So I got detention for nothing. FML
Today, in class, I reached into my bag to pull out a tampon, which I hid under my sleeve so I could make a quick escape to the restroom. My teacher yelled at me, because she thought I'd taken out my phone. I then had to prove myself by showing the tampon to the whole class. FML
Today, our teacher forgot to collect our phones when we arrived at school. We almost managed to take our phones back to the dormitory but someone's phone rang TWICE in the corridor and she remembered the whole thing. FML
Today, I tried to charge my phone at school by removing the socket for the fan. All the computers in the room turned off. I accidentally removed the power cables for the computers and got suspended. FML
Today, I was giving a lecture to my class I heard a phone go off. Aggravated and exhausted, I asked everyone to turn their phones off. Then the phone rang again. I lost my shit and spent the next half hour calling my students a bunch of "technology whores". Then I realized the phone was mine. FML
Today, my new iPhone was stolen from my school locker. After canceling my service, sobbing, having my mom yell at the secretary for their lack of security and finally agreeing to change to a private school, I found it in the corner of my locker. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Have the schools head on a platter for unreasonable treatment. This was an emergency situation in which you had no other choice. You were not disrupting a class or using it for conversation. Maybe you could have pushed the emergency call button in the elevator, but that's no excuse for the school's actions.

Dacho, shut thu **** up. How do you expect a crippled kid or a kid in a wheelchair to get up stairs. Yea, that's what I thought.

My high school has 10 floors, so yeah an elevator was pretty useful (of course students couldnt use it!). Still this demonstrates how brainless school officials can be.

Erg... I hate my school's rules. Ya I know they are meant for a reason but sometimes they don't investigate further and found out why. Oh ya and they always beleive the teacher even if a million students tell the same story :/ makes me so angry!!

One of the buildings in our school has an elevator because it has 5 levels.. an older building has only 3 levels but also has an elevator... we can only use it if we have permission from a teacher.. if we need to carry a big thing with wheels or we've broken an ankle or something. They're rly cheap thoe... one of the buildings with elevators is like 150yrs old so yeahh.

My old elementary school had two elevators on different sides of the building, schools having elevators isn't all that abnormal. I'm not entirely sure why my school had them, we only had two floors o_0 but anyways, OP, that sucks..

WTF? If it clearly doesn't have a phone for you to call, then that's a MAJOR safety hazard. I would have told them to F off if they tried to take my phone. Less you weren't supposed to be using the elevator in the first place.

seriously, if there's a safety hazard like that u can sue the school.

Lots of schools have two floors, right? And the disabled kids have to get upstairs somehow, right?
