Today, I had to visit a client because his printer had broken down. After driving for an hour, then being screamed at about how horrible my company's service is, I walked over to his printer and found the problem: there was no paper loaded. FML

Today, I went to the print shop to get some work printed. The guy serving me printed my entire order wrong because he pushed the wrong button, so it had to be done again. He tried to charge me a fine for the mistake he made because "it's not a viable business otherwise". FML
Today, I had to drive over an hour away to buy toilet paper. FML
Today, my boss is writing me up for not signing a report before I left work. He refused to print the report that day, and I don't have access to the printers. FML
Today, I was home alone. It was very dark and so I went to turn on the lights, when I heard the sound of a gun loading. I dropped to the floor but never heard a gun fire. I got up and heard the sound again. When I got lights on, I discovered it was only my printer telling me it was out of paper. FML
Today, at work, we ran out of receipt paper. Someone paid for $3 in gas and asked for a receipt. I explained that the company we order our paper from sent us toilet paper, not receipt paper. He got mad and said that he was never coming back. Twenty minutes later, he was back to get $3 more in gas, wanting a receipt. FML
Today, I was sent to a customer's house to switch out a washing machine. My boss had assured me that everything I'd need was already in the truck. Halfway there, I ran out of gas and I realized I didn't have the gas card. My boss says it's my fault. FML
Today, I complained to my boss about how my printer wasn't printing colored ink even though I had just installed a new cartridge yesterday. Upon investigation, she noted that I forgot to take off the protection sticker from the cartridge. Good job. FML
Today, at work, my computer started acting up. I told my boss I could fix it, but he told me to call the IT department instead. Neither the IT technician or his supervisor could figure it out, so I showed them what was wrong and how to fix it. I was promptly fired for wasting 2 hours of company time. FML
Today, I did a 3 hour long assignment for school. I was bored so I gave it the title "F***ing Assignment for a F***ing Teacher." I went downstairs only to discover that the printer was out of ink. So I sent it to her email, then I realized that I didn't change the title. FML
Today, I went to deliver some reports to my boss in his office. He was facing away from me and ranting about his "useless employees", so I slipped in and waited for him to put the phone down. Turns out he was talking to himself. When he noticed me, he bitched me out and threatened to fire me. FML

Just when you think people can't get any stupider, they prove they can.

Why yes, yes they do considering "stupider" isn't a word.
Welshite 39
Yes, it is.

"Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider Girls go to mars to get more candy bars"

Wow. That's way better than our "Girls go to Mars to get more smart." Jesus Christ, why is this only being brought to my attention now??

24-You'd be suprised to know that it is, in fact, a word. 29 & 34: Interesting you should say that, since the Dictionary of Modern English usage by H.W. Fowler, a piece of literature made in 1926, lists it as a superlative of "stupid". Certainly a word from the age of YOLO and twerking.
ManInTheMachine 19
*comparative, not superlative. My mistake.

55 I always heard it "Girl go to Venus to get more genius"
Caitie_kid 8
I heard it in middle school as boys go to Venus to find their penis, girls go to mars to get candy bars. I was always a little jealous that was no planet that rhymed with ******.

Haven't heard that variation before. When I was younger it was always "Girls go to college to get more knowledge"

@56 Did Fowler lament as to how he's lost all faith in humanity? :)

Been there, minus the drive. I asked a customer twice if she had all the cables and wires connected. Even described where each one should be plugged in, only to have her suddenly discover 10 minutes later that her printer wasn't plugged in. That, after bragging that she was going to computer school and knew more about computers than any of the people trying to help her.

Should have shouted back at him at how incompetent he actually is... fools these days.

What a waste of gas...and of your time of course.

It blows my mind how stupid some people can be.

Don't most computers/printers tell you that you're out of paper?

Sometimes I wonder how people manage to live so long. I mean, there's only so much people can do for them to protect them from their own stupidity.

Remember one thing op. Stupid people will always be stupid people.
