Today, I bought a brand new flat screen TV. When I brought it home it didn't work. Furious, I walked into Best Buy and yelled at a guy in a tucked in blue polo and khakis. I asked him why it didn't work and he said he didn't know. I kept screaming. He didn't have a nametag. He didn't work there. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I bought myself a brand-new 52" flatscreen. It was only in my house for 2 hours before my toddler had a tantrum, threw a toy right into the screen and wrecked it beyond repair. I paid to have a nice TV for 2 hours. FML
Today, I bought a brand new TV that cost a pretty penny. I took it home and it had a defect. After a lot of arguing, I was able to exchange the TV for another one. I got it home and it worked amazing. Later on, we had a bad rainstorm, which flooded my room and screwed up not only my new TV, but my PS5, Xbox, and laptop. FML
Today, I walked into Best Buy to buy a 42" widescreen TV I'd been saving up for many months. As I walked in, a man stopped me and handed me my wallet that I'd accidentally dropped. I thanked him. Five minutes later at the checkout, I opened up my wallet to realize it was empty. He had stolen everything. FML
Today, I was chewed out by a lady who claimed the laptop she bought wouldn't turn on, and that she wanted a refund. She yelled and shoved the laptop at me, not even listening when I told her I didn't even work at that store. FML
Today, I purchased a brand new television. Not long after the professional who hung it on my wall left, it came crashing down on my hardwood floor. I'm now left with a busted TV, a tear in my living room wall, and a severely drained bank account. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me because we didn't have any laptops in stock. I work at a clothing store. FML
Today, I got lost at Best Buy. Meanwhile, my mom freaked out, and they called out my name over the intercom. When I walked up to the desk and they saw I was 17, the employees burst out laughing. FML
Today, I went to a store to buy a 43-inch TV that was on sale. The sale was so good that they sold out on the floor. I went to guest services and asked the employee if they had any in the back. She literally went to the back of the room, let out this god awful fart, came back out and said, “Sorry, we don’t.” FML
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. FML
Today, someone came into the store I work at, laughed at my name on my name-tag, and left without even buying anything. FML

Even if he had a name tag, why would you yell at him? "Hey, you work here! You must know exactly what's wrong with the TV I bought from some other employee a while ago! "

You are an asshole! Even if he DID work there you should not take your technological incompetence out on him. Read the owners manual or buy a black and white TV, those are usually pretty easy to set up.

Yeah because yelling at a worker who had nothing to do with your tv in the first place would have been the right thing to do anyways. Go to hell you prick.

YDI, but I ******* hated it when I worked at Target and saw people come shopping in red shirts and khakis. SERIOUSLY PEOPLE?! Must you dress like you work there? YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING

OP - You get more bees with honey than you do with vinegar. I would find your car and piss on the door handle because of this. Passive-aggressive is the way to go. Oh, and #157 - People can dress the way that they want. Maybe they didn't know that they were going to go there. Don't be pissed at people because of how they dress because that is ignorant.

gawd, anger management much? Why the freak would you walk into the store and yell and the first guy you see that looks like he works there aneways? For all you know, you're yelling at the computer geek person. Even if it was the TV sales guy, yelling will not accomplish anething. Why don't you try your indoor voice next time instead of being such a hot headed bitch, mmk? and maybe it's something YOU did as to why the TV doesn't work. Is it plugged in dearie?
