Today, I took my first day off in 3 weeks just so I can sleep in. The office secretary woke me up at 7.12 am with a page wishing me a nice day off. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I had my first day off in weeks. I was excited about getting to sleep in, until my boss called me at 6:30 in the morning to remind me I didn't have to come into work. Thanks. FML
Today, I woke up at 5:30 and made the half hour drive to work only to find out that it was my day off. After finally getting back home and into bed, my boss called, requesting that I come back to work since I was "already up". FML
Today, I had three days off work. My mom woke me up for work on all three of those days, despite my repeatedly asking her not to. When I actually had to go to work this morning, she didn't wake me up. At least I wasn't late. FML
Today, it was the first day of fall break from college, and I was really excited to sleep in and relax the entire weekend. Apparently my boss caught wind of my happiness and scheduled me 8am-2pm each day of break, "seeing how I don't have anything else to do." FML
Today, I woke up after taking the new sleeping pills I was prescribed for my insomnia. I slept for 12 hours and had 5 missed calls from my boss. FML
Today, I finally had a day off in two weeks and I was excited about getting to sleep in. At 5 a.m., my mom loudly knocked and came in. When I asked her what she wanted, she said she was checking to see if I was asleep. FML
Today, and for the first time in months, I woke up feeling well rested and ready to face the day. At 7pm. FML
Today, I fell asleep at work. I got woke up by my boss with a coffee and a referral letter. FML
Today, my girlfriend woke me at 5am, just to say how great it was that I could still sleep two more hours before leaving for work. FML
Today, I got to sleep in late for the first time in 3 years, as wife took our two young daughters out of town to visit with her parents. I told my mother that I was really looking forward to being able to sleep in this morning. The phone rang at 7:30. It was my mother asking me how I slept. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Look at all the stupid teenagers whining: OMG THATS NOTHING MY JOB IS HARDER/MY DAD IS A CONSTURCTION WORKER/WAH! Well that's what you get for not getting an education, stop ragging on the OP just because he has a good job and you probably will make minimum wage the rest of your lives because you suck.

I was thinking something along those lines as well =X.

having a minimum-wage paying job doesn't necessarily mean you're uneducated.

You're right, it doesn't. However its not something to brag about either ... (nor a good reason to put down office workers who are feeling down about some aspect of their job)

I work construction and I would say I'm smart considering I don't have to go to college and pay shit ton of money to go to college and then make prob less than the construction worker with Whittier benefits

I love getting woken up when I want to sleep in. It feels so good to just fall back asleep.

Wow, everyone is really hating on the OP. 3 weeks without a day off really sucks. Think about it, most people get two days off every week!!! I've worked three weeks without a day off before and let me tell you, it sucks!

YDI if you still use a pager or if you really refer to texts as pages.

The receptionist still has to be at work, so that's probably why he/she called. He/she doesn't want to be the only one to suffer.
