Today, I went to buy some makeup. As I was checking out, the cashier said, "You're going to need more than that to cover up that face." FML
Collection
Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I bought some makeup supplies at the supermarket. The cashier snorted and muttered, "Not enough in the world for you." FML
Today, I went to Walmart to get some acne cream. As I approached the register, I looked in my wallet for the money. The cashier saw that I didn't have enough money, and before I could say anything, he goes, "Just take it, I've never seen anyone who needs it this much." FML
Today, I got in line at the grocery store. The woman in front of me looked right at me, turned to her friend, and said "That reminds me, I forgot to get acne cream." FML
Today, my boss commented on the fact that I don't usually wear makeup, then told me it would be much appreciated if I'd change that. FML
Today, I yelled at a new employee for violating the company's makeup policy which is minimum coverage. She had red lipstick, very dark drawn eyebrows, and foundation that made her look like a ghost. She took out a makeup wipe and used it then showed me it, only to reveal she doesn't wear any. FML
Today, I told a coworker, “You look way better without makeup.” She responded, “I’m wearing makeup.” Everyone around us gasped like I had just said "fuck" in church. 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 at the store buying some feminine products. At the cash register, the clerk said to me "Dude, you know those are for girls right?" I am a 30 year old woman. FML
Today, my mom told me that my new concealer is way too dark and makes my skin look hideously orange and uneven. I wasn't wearing any makeup. FML
Today, I was feeling unusually self-confident, so I decided to skip putting on makeup for the day. On my way to class, I passed some guys selling towels. One of them jeered, "Wanna be prettier? Buy a towel, and throw it over your face!" There goes my self-confidence. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well that was rude. I don't understand why people think it's acceptable to comment on people's appearance in such a derogatory way.

And whatever her excuse will be, it won't be able to cover up her story for saying that. Bring it up to her boss.

She could just lie. Once when I was a cashier I told a customer, "**** you." My manager believed me when I denied it. That customer deserved it, though. He called me an asshole for refusing to sell him cigarettes, but I'm not the one who wrote the tobacco laws, or the one who lost his ID.

Well, your manager is an idiot. Whether he deserves it or not that's no way to speak to a customer.

The way he spoke to me was no way to speak to someone who is just doing her job either. That guy came in every day trying to buy cigarettes without an ID and he looked like he was about 16. I told him "no" every day, and the next day he'd come back trying to buy cigarettes again. One day I explained to him, perhaps a bit annoyed, that I couldn't sell him cigarettes without an ID because I could lose my job and get a $5,000 fine. He responded by calling me an asshole as he walked out the door, so I yelled ",**** you!" back. My manager believed me because that was very out of character for me, and we were all already pretty sure that kid was a liar (about his age at least.) I wasn't going to lose my job over that punk, although in hind sight I probably would have just been written up. Still, I regret nothing. Thug life.

I think the cashier simply meant the volume of the contents in the box are not enough for your face or that the shade doesn't match or something to that effect
