Today, I arrived at my internship at 7 am after three hours of sleep with a massive hangover. When I got there, my boss told me he had made a mistake and I was meant to come in next week. He then said, "Well, now that you're here, you might as well get some work done. Come in next week as well." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after drinking myself to an oblivion, I awoke with a massive hangover. I didn’t want to go to work, but every excuse I came up with in my head screamed of alcoholics. When I arrived, my boss asked me why I was there. It was my day off. FML
Today, I showed up to work at 6am, only to find out the schedule was changed. I wasn't actually supposed to be there until 9:15. My boss never told me this. I didn't get to go home either, he just said, "Oh well. Get to work." FML
Today, I went in for my second day working at my internship. My bosses greeted me and told me we were going to have a meeting. The meeting was about the drunk voicemails I left them on Saturday. FML
Today, I had to wake up at 4am because my boss set an important business meeting for first thing in the morning. After making sure everything was ready, I went to work. My boss ended up oversleeping and moved the meeting to tomorrow. FML
Today, I excitedly got ready for my first day at my new job. I arrived on time, dressed up, only to find out they meant next Monday, not today. My new boss just gave me a weird look and said, "See you next week?" FML
Today, I went to work completely hung over. I was at my desk for 5 minutes before security threw me out on my ass. Apparently, I’m hung over because I got fired yesterday and got blackout drunk, completely forgetting that I had been fired. FML
Today, I woke up at 5:30 and made the half hour drive to work only to find out that it was my day off. After finally getting back home and into bed, my boss called, requesting that I come back to work since I was "already up". FML
Today, as usual, I got to my internship early, did everything my bosses asked. At the end of the day, I was fired after 3 weeks of working unpaid overtime because they found an applicant with more experience for the job I applied to and they wanted to cut costs. FML
Today, after I've been sick all week, but still coming in to work (I'm not contagious) because I know that we're short staffed, I sucked it up and came in again, only to find out 3 other employees called in because they're hungover. Now I have to do my job and theirs. FML
Today, I feel so tired and hungover after going to the office summer party yesterday. I had no alcohol to drink and I left at 10pm, way earlier than all my team. My team drank a lot and stayed until after 1am. They all showed up earlier and looking better than me, while I'm a trainwreck with a bad headache. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You probably shouldn't have been drinking heavily the night before you were supposed to go in. Even if your boss told you the wrong week, clearly you thought you were supposed to work.

You most absolutely deserved this. You drank, you stayed out all night. YDI.

how about not drinking a day before the start of an internship?

That was a pretty jackass move on your part, OP. Even if your internship is unpaid, it's an opportunity to gain work experience and even receive a permanent job offer. And the fact that you felt it was appropriate to stay up all night drinking indicates that you really do not care about this opportunity. YDI

I hate it when alcohol drunkens me and keeps me up all hours of the night before I have to go to work. I also hate when things cost more than I have, but I go ahead and buy them anyway so I get into debt. Then there's like so many calories in cakes and stuff, but I eat way too much of the sweets and now, at no fault of my own, I'm overweight. I mean, when am I ever going to catch a break?

I saw at least two people get fired from the last place I worked at for coming in drunk. I think it goes without saying that you did this to yourself. If you manage to keep your internship, maybe try NOT doing that from now on.

So you had an internship the next day yet you thought it would be a good idea to drink the night before why?

Who starts an internship like this? Kinda disrespectful to your employer

It sucks that you have to work both weeks now, and I would feel really bad if you weren't supposed to work today. But why would you go out drinking on a work night???

Fml? No, that's just how is works my friend, you knew you had stuff to do and instead of getting mentally prepared for it (I.e; not getting wasted) you set yourself up for failure.

YDI for knowingly getting trashed the day before you start your internship. In fact, YDI for getting trashed at all.
