Today, at work, my boss asked me why I wasn't adhering to proper dress code. I pointed out that skinny jeans are in the dress code, to which he replied, "Only if you're skinny." FML

Today, I was in a hurry to get to work and I put on yesterday's jeans. While at my meeting an employee asked me if 'that' was mine and pointed to something on the floor next to me. Which was yesterday's underwear. FML

Today, I went to my retail job to buy some clothing. As soon as I walked through the doors, my manager yelled at me for not being in appropriate work clothes. I tried to explain that I was off the clock but he was having none of it. I got written up. FML

YDI for thinking you can wear your pajamas to work just because they're your favorite outfit.

This is only cool if you go into work dressed in a Max suit from Where The Wild Things Are, complete with pimp staff and crown.

I saw the movie on Friday night. LOVE LOVE LOVED IT. Spike Jonze deserves some awards for that. It's so amazing how he was able to expand so much on such a short story. I still laugh thinking of the stick as Douglas' arm after Carol tore it off. And the ending with the howling as he's sailing away absolutely tore me up inside. The soundtrack provided by Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs adds so much to it as well. :]

Considering that the OP sleeps naked, I can see the boss's concern. :)

I see what you did there. "I was wearing my favourite outfit". Geeze, I like my body too but there's no need to brag about it

Hehe, my favorite outfit is nude too, so I can relate. :D

The giant tattoo that said "Grade A Meat" might have been the problem. Gentleman's Not So Gentle Brothel clearly states no one can label themselves as meat.

Can we label ourselves as fish instead? Or eggs?

Today, just like every workday for the last 6 months, the construction workers in my building made loud noises in the morning and woke me up almost 2 hours before I would otherwise have to get up. This will continue for one more year. I'm not a morning person, and I live in a protected historical building. FML

Today, while dog sitting my neighbor's Great Dane, I decided to order pizza. As soon as I received it, the dog stood in the hallway staring at me. As soon as I moved, he ran full force and knocked me into the door, causing me to fall and drop the pizza, which he promptly devoured in front of me. FML
