Today, I was working the cash register. While helping a customer with her groceries, my bra snapped. I then had to ask my male boss if I could staple it back together. Thirty minutes later it snapped again. I then had to explain to my boss that I was too broke to buy a new one. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my bra burst apart in the middle of class. I then had the privilege of asking my male teacher if I could borrow his stapler to put it back together. FML
Today, I was at work, and I had to tell my manager I was calling someone to bring me a bra as mine had broken mid-shift. I was the only woman on shift. It took them 30 minutes to show up and I still had to serve front of house while I waited. FML
Today, since I'm too broke to get a new one, I had to duct tape my bra. FML
Today, my pants ripped while I was at work. I had to keep my balls to the wall while I dodged customers and edged ever closer to the break room. Before I could call my wife and ask her to bring a new pair, my boss burst in, got pissed, and made me go back out and deal with irate customers. FML
Today, the underwire in my bra snapped as my 9-hour workday started. FML
Today, my boss asked me to pick up some supplies for a presentation. I entered the store in the middle of an armed robbery, was knocked to the floor, and had my cash, phone and credit cards stolen. When I told my boss the story, she said, "So were you able to get the binder clips?" FML
Today, at work, the seat of my pants ripped open. A coworker lent me a pair of his back-up jeans, and then those ripped in the crotch. FML
Today, I'm a cashier in a grocery store. The visiting regional manager tore me a new one for being lazy. His reason? After working a double shift with no break, I decided to sit down for a minute when things got slow. FML
Today, at work, my front-close bra popped open like an anime character, right in front of the two male coworkers I was talking to. My boobs flung around and I had to pretend nothing happened while subtly crossing my arms and waiting for them to leave so I could fix it. FML
Today, my bra clasp broke in the middle of a job interview. I got the job on the spot. I'm scared to report into work. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

OP, if you have a job and still can't afford to buy a new bra, either you get paid way too little, or you really need to re-think your spending priorities. Because obviously something's not right here.

I find it hilarious that people are giving me thumbs down on this comment. I'm sorry you guys seem to think there's something wrong with the truth.

Some people start off on their own and have to dedicate all of their minimum wage to rent, utilities, food and transportation. The truth is, not everyone is as fortunate as to have parents to provide for them through their college years. I bet you're one of those people who think all homeless people are drunks or druggies and deserve it too.

If you really can't afford a bra, just get like, nipple covers to tide you over until you can get the money for a real bra. Nipple covers are pretty cheap, around $2-$3, I think. Good luck, OP.

How can u be to broke to buy a bra? There like 5$?

No, a decent bra is at least $20 dollars. A sports bra is cheaper though.

Sounds to me like your bra was a little too tight for you...

I got a bunch of sports bras at Walmart for $3 and $4. Better than nothing.

FML isn't just an smartphone app. Also, old laptops can be free from a friend, family member, freecycle, etc and are perfectly capable of basic web browsing using a free wifi connection.
