Today, I had my driver's permit in an envelope to keep it safe and a letter to mail out. I drove away from the post office with the letter in my hand. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, on the way to work, I pulled over at a postbox to post a letter. I walked up to the box with the letter in one hand, car key in the other. Guess which one I posted. FML
Today, I bought stamps to send a letter. For some unknown reason, instead of putting the stamp on the letter, I posted the letter and the stamp booklet into the postbox. FML
Today, I rushed to the post office to mail an important document for the study abroad program that I'd applied for, which was due in a few days. Just as the envelope slipped out of my hand and into the mail box, I caught a glimpse of the upper right corner where there was supposed to be a stamp. FML
Today, I learned that when I got my driver's permit, I agreed to be the designated driver for my family. FML
Today, I failed to get my driver's licence. My father was the instructor. FML
Today I was very excited to go to the post office to claim a parcel. I didn't know what it could be, so I assumed it was a gift. It turned out to be a speeding ticket. FML
Today, I finally went to the DMV to replace my lost license. After waiting for almost two hours, I casually rummaged through my purse. Something strange inside the lining caught my eye. It was my license. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket in the mail. I don't have a car. FML
Today, I received a traffic ticket by mail, presumably for speeding. Not a big deal, if my car hadn't been totalled three months ago. My driver's license is expired, too. FML
Today, I passed my driver's test. My instructor took the learner signs off his car and let me drive back to my place. I guess he didn't bet on me crashing the car just a few blocks from the test center. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Don't worry too much OP, there's a hobo walking around wondering what to do with a credit card he was given.

It always pays to double check before dropping it in the box. However you can go into the postoffice and they can have an employee get it back for you.

Who keeps their permit in an envelope to "keep it safe"? You have a wallet for a reason.

I won't criticize you, OP, but I am genuinely curious as to why you were keeping your permit in an envelope. I have never heard of anyone doing this before.

There is something called a wallet...which is where something such as a driving permit goes. Unless you didn't have your wallet or purse or whatever on you, you should've put it there. Not a stupid envelope.
