Today, by request from my new boss, I came into work over an hour early to finish some backed-up filing. This seemed like a great opportunity to earn some extra overtime pay. After spending an hour and half filing, I realized I hadn't clocked in for the day. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I came in to work early at a restaurant to help out. I stocked, baked pies for the next day, cleaned and set over 50 tables, and vacuumed the entire two stories. When I went to send an order for the first customer of mine, I realized I hadn't even clocked on. Four and half hours of work wasted. FML

You haven't had to disable an alarm or something? Then they can review when you actually arrived! ;)

I've done this at work before. Just ask them to fix the payroll for you.

Meh just tell them and they will fix it for you. I do it all the time lol

i've done that tons of times, it's easily fixable. this is not a fml

This is not an FML. Talk to your boss and let them know. If you did the work they are required by law to pay you. They could potentially make it difficult for you but I've never had a problem with that myself. My bosses always changed it without fuss.

lol. tell your boss you forgot to clock in & they could probably still give you the pay. i know some places will allow you to do that. it sucks for the embarassment part tho for sure!
