Today, I told my students that I would be absent tomorrow because my wife was giving birth. They burst into applause... not to congratulate me on the new baby. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, at work, we were gathered to be told some bad news. One of our colleagues would be taking indefinite leave because his wife had dropped their newborn baby. I accidentally laughed at the image. FML
Today, I told my students that I would be taking a few weeks off because a member of my family is very ill. They all cheered. FML
Today, I found out that I'm going to be a father. Too bad I can't tell my wife. FML
Today, at my job as a second grade teacher, I was explaining to my students how I'm pregnant and will have to take a break from teaching after I have my baby. One of my students replied with "Ooooooooohhh Ms. Johnson had sex!" FML
Today, my colleague rushed off to the hospital for the birth of his first son. Having met his wife at the Christmas party a couple of years ago, I called to congratulate her. Shame I didn't realize it was his mistress having the baby. Guess who broke the news to the wife. FML
Today, I told my husband I was pregnant, then he fainted. FML
Today, I received several texts congratulating me on my pregnancy. It turns out that my husband announced he is going to be a father on Facebook, which I don't use. I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I announced my pregnancy to my boss. I was expecting all sorts of reactions, except, "But... Erm... How did that happen?" FML
Today, I was told by my wife that we were going to be parents. We are both females. FML
Today, my friend thought it would be funny to announce to the class that I finally got a girlfriend. I received a standing ovation. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Maybe it was to congratulate you on getting laid.

That's what I thought. We applauded my English teacher just for the fact he can actually get laid.

Oh get over it. I select option 3, no one cares. You don't remember being a student and finding out you were having a substitute? You look forward to those days. Congratulations on the baby.

It's what all students do. Seriously. Even if you're the best teacher in the world, you're part of the administration. And all students, myself included, have at least a slight us vs. them mentality. You leaving is a good thing to them, no matter how cool you are. I have one teacher whom I dislike having a sub for, out of seven. And he's one of few, ever.

couragewolf9001/#9: I agree. You might just be boring as a teacher... My geometry teacher is nice, but he's a terrible teacher... But he's nice. Although that may not be part of it. I like having a sub because it's a nice day off sort of. Unless the teacher gives the class a shitload of work to do while they're away...
