Today, I went to Starbucks to get coffee. The employees told me that there was no more coffee. I started cursing at them and told them that I am in a really big hurry, and that I need coffee every day. They had been yelling back the whole time. Little did I realize, they were saying April Fool's. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to admit that my coffee addiction is really bad when I woke up in a Starbucks with no memory of how I got there. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I "didn't get the right kind of coffee beans." FML
Today, I walked into Starbucks for a job application. I asked the manager if they were hiring, as I really need a job. He looked me up and down and replied, "NO!" There was a 'Now hiring' sign in the window. FML
Today, I went to Starbucks to get my free birthday coffee and due to a mistake I received two. Thinking it was my lucky day, I hurried off to work. As I was walking in, I tripped and spilt one coffee all over my new dress. Then I walked into a door and spilt the other. FML
Today, I stopped at Starbucks to get tea before work and was surprised that there wasn't a line. As I was leaving, the automatic door closed, knocking my tea out of my hand. I headed back in, only to discover a huge line had formed and they made me pay for the replacement that their door spilled. FML
Today, at work, a customer came in and ordered a "Butterbeer Frappuccino." When I said we serve no such thing, she yelled at me for "lying" to her, saying she knew about our "secret menu." She ended up complaining to my manager and demanded that he fire me. FML
Today, I was late for work and got chewed out by my boss. To console myself I decided to drink a cup of coffee and a cup of tea. My work provides this for free. When I did, my boss told me that in fact it wasn't, nor has it ever been, free; all this time I've been stealing other people's coffee. FML
Today, I went into a small coffee shop. In line, a guy came up to me and was like, "I haven't seen you here before, are you new in town?" and I replied with, "Oh, no I've lived here for years. The coffee here is crap, though, so I only come here when Starbucks is full." He's the owner of the shop. FML
Today, a customer screamed at me, because her iced coffee tasted exactly like coffee, and she hates coffee. Sadly, this isn't even the most insane person I've had to deal with at this job. FML
Today, I went to my favorite coffee shop, ordered my usual, smiled at the barista I have a crush on, and confidently said, "You too!" when they told me to enjoy my drink. I have to find a new coffee shop. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Actually #99, I think just this little snippet of the OP's life is pretty indicative of the kind of person he or she most likely is. I don't care how bad your day or week or year has been, if you have been raised with the slightest sense of respect for other human beings or awareness that the world does not revolve around you, you absolutely would not have reacted that way. Naturally everyone is rude to others, but reacting in the manner if the OP is on a completely different level. He/she deserves everything the commers are throwing at them. If only I could tell them in person what I think of them, so that there might be hope that they would realize their wrongs.

#100. i am a chef, and its because of pricks like you that restaurants have bad reps. luckily i work in a high enough scale restaurant where people arent and definately shouldnt be worried about that. yes customer service is tough, but in most cases when your the worker and a customer comes in to pay for something "the customer is always right" no matter how wrong they actually are, we are there to please them.

Yep, going to agree that you are a douche. Get a life and just go elsewhere. Starbucks are everywhere. Stop being such a shit giver and keep your shit to yourself. Is that the kinda of example you want to set for your kids/future kids/husband/bf? If so...good luck! You'll need more than coffee to live with your sad lonely life.

Thats why i like Tim Hortons. It's not full of yuppie assholes like you. They make great coffee, and they dont charge $7 apiece. Moreover, they customers are almost always the same: Working class citizens who make an honest living, and dont walk around like the own the world.

Moron. If they were actually out of coffee, how would yelling at $7/hr employees help your situation at all?

"I started cursing at them and told them that I am in a really big hurry, and that i need coffee everyday." This is exactly why i don't drink coffee regularly. If you were in a hurry, how would yelling at them help your situation. If you were in a hurry, you should have left and gone to a small, non-chain coffee shop. Its cheaper there.

You need to think about confronting your obvious coffee addiction. No need to yell at the people like that. RELAX.
