Today, I was waiting for a delivery between 9am-8pm. At 7:30 pm, I finally decided to have a 3 minute (desperately needed) shower. During which time the delivery man came. I ran down the street in a towel that barely covered me. He was driving away looking at me in the mirror laughing. FML
Yeah, fair enough, OR
1). If I didn't run after the parcel it would have been sent back to the depot (in Bristol!) And would have gone back to America after 1day there! I would have had to pay extortionate posting for it to come back again!
2). Was being picked up at 8 - so yes I absolutely did have to have a shower!
3). If you'd been waiting all day getting restless would you not panic, given that you wouldn't expect out of a 13 hour slot - the parcel comes during the three minute shower you need?!
And yes, it is my own stupidity - that's why it's funny, that I clearly have absolutely no common sense...hence the FML!
To be honest I'd join FML too if all I had time to do with my day was leave criticisms on other people's jokes.

Even if you need to sign for it, they'll usually leave one of those notes saying you need to go pick it up, or that they'll be back the next day to deliver it again.
