Today, I was working as the shift manager at my job at a fast food restaurant. Our company policy states that all employees must be clean shaven before coming to work. I had to inform one of the employees, Kris, that they had to shave before clocking in. Kris is a woman. FML

Today, a customer came in to the Pizza store where I work and complained that the food they had purchased had a strand of black hair in it. After some deliberation, my boss decided to fire me. He is the only staff member there with black hair. I shaved my hair 2 weeks ago. FML

Today, my boss told me to cut my long hair. After coming back to work with a clean cut hairstyle, he apparently thought I was the new guy, and said I was going to be trained by "The long-haired girly-looking idiot." FML

Today, I woke up late for a job interview. I hadn't shaved in six days, but figuring I could do so en route, I grabbed my electric razor and ran for the bus. While shaving, the razor's battery died midway through, leaving me to attend the job interview with a Miami Vice scruff on half my face. FML

Today, I work at a food joint as a chef, and a customer found a long strand of hair in her food. The manager blamed me, even though I'm bald. FML

Today, I told my boss I was bored of being a cashier and would rather go to food prep. He told me I couldn't because my arms were too hairy. I'm a sixteen year old girl. FML

Today, I had a morning shift at the restaurant and didn't feel like wearing makeup. I was energetic and greeted everyone happily, but my manager told me I looked tired. I said, "Oh no I'm just not wearing makeup!" He said, "Well, you might need it." FML

Today, I was fired for having a haircut that was 'inappropriate for the workplace'. I have alopecia. My boss told me to stop making up excuses. FML

Today, I was fired from my job because I would "scare" the customers. Two days ago a coworker spilled fry oil onto the grill causing flames to singe my eyebrows and the front of my hair off. 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

Today, I went into work to change a shift I was unable to work. I phoned the first person on the employee sheet and they promptly answer by saying, "You still work here? I thought the manager fired you." I was fired last week and have been showing up for shifts without anybody noticing. FML

How is it, in your unintelligible words, 'ewwwwwwie'? Hair is natural, it's on your head, above your eyes, on your eyes and it grows on us like any other animal. Yes we have our techniques to get rid of the unwanted stuff, but if you think hair is so gross, you would have to get rid of the hair on your head, eyebrows, eyelashes and every last bit on your body.

A woman needs to wax her facial hair to work in fast food.. seriously? It's not like it's so long it would dangle and fall into the fries or some shit. Or maybe it really is that bad. She should probably invest in a razor at that point, for sure.

How is this an FML? This has nothing to do with you.

they have to tell a woman to shave. she's going to feel embarrassed and upset at the person who said something. I would hate to call a woman on that. it'd feel like I was insulting her. on the other hand, she should know, and it's something she should have been taking care of already.

Eww I once saw a woman with face and neck hair at Arby's! I was so grossed out I left. Rules are rules, but I'm sorry you had to deliver this news because apparently she can't see the hair.
