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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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! "

Wow, what a douche thing to do. It's just a ******* television, and chances are you were just too dumb to figure out how to work it.

Yeah, I'm just going to repeat what everyone else has said; you're a complete d-bag, and quite the unintelligible one at that. Is it really that hard to figure out that an hourly employee at a store where you buy a product is in no way responsible for the way it functions? And not only that but they are not *experts* on the products they sell. Hopefully karma gets you back for that one.

Oh man if I was that guy I would start yelling back. "Excuse me sir but first of all you're completely disrespecting me by yelling at me - I demand to be treated with respect and I am a human being just like you. Although I would love to help you I wouldn't know what's wrong with your TV. I'm not the employee who sold you this TV - and I'm not the one who made it. How about you get some goddamn manners, get off your ******* 'The customer is always right' high horse and call someone who knows how to fix your problem like - oh I don't know the Manufacturer's customer support? You probably forgot to plug the damn thing in or something you stupid asshole" And then when you would get all pissy about it (because it seems like something you would get pissy about, I mean it fits into the category of anything) You would probably ask to see the manager. Then I would tell you I don't even work here and I'd leave the store. You're such a gigantic asshole.

You're the reason that most people hate their jobs. Seriously. Grow up. How is it the stores fault that you got a faulty product home? This isn't an FMyLife moment- this is a F You moment

Man, go **** yourself, yelling at some poor sack at a customer service job. Working retail only sucks because we have to deal with shitbags like you.

You're the cancer that America's employees have had to put up with. It doesn't matter that he didn't work there. Why would you keep yelling? Maybe if you throw a tantrum a random worker will know what's wrong with your TV, huh? Keep your issues to yourself and shove your self-centered head up your ass, you horrible ****.
