Today, I went with my sister to her company Christmas party. They had a gift raffle, my number was called and I won $25 for a local restaurant. A few moments later, the manager came over and said, "You don't work here? You can't have that" and took it from me. FML

Today, my workplace was having a raffle and was giving away a Venus shaving kit. A co-worker won, but instead of keeping it, she walked over and handed the basket to me in front of everyone, said "You need it more" and walked away. FML
Today, I found out why the temps were not invited to the company Christmas party. The company paid for the regular employees to go to a nice restaurant, gave them nice presents, and handed out substantial bonuses. They keep telling me they can't hire me on because the company can't afford it. FML
Today, I won a meal for two in a raffle. I had no one to go with. FML
Today, at work, I had a customer accuse me of taking the giftcard I had issued her for her return, after spending 15 minutes trying to fix her screwed up transaction. She began to yell, and follow me around the store. Security had to intervene and I had to be locked in an office until she left. FML
Today, it's my birthday, and my coworkers gave me a $75 gift card to a restaurant chain near my house. Later in the evening, I found out the chain of restaurants abruptly closed. All of them. FML
Today, I was working at a donation center. I was having a really rough day, so my fiancée dropped me off some cookies. At the end of my shift, the manager told me I couldn't take them home because they were donated and therefore they were "company property." FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with my friend, where my credit card got denied in front of everyone. The staff teased me and made me sit in the restaurant while my friend begged for money outside. FML
Today, I won a raffle organised by a friend. I discovered one of the "prizes" was actually a present that I had given to her, that she had "loved". When I asked her where she had gotten it, she said, "Oh, just some crap someone gave me once." She didn't even remember that I had given it to her. FML
Today, I was at work as a grocery store cashier. I felt a hand slap my ass. Turning around I saw an old man winking at me and I screamed. When my manager came to deal with the problem she didn't believe me and gave the man a $25 gift card for "the trouble" I caused. FML
Today, I decided to cover a coworker's closing shift because she felt sick. My boss even gave me a $10 gift card for doing it. I felt good about it, until I walked outside and found that my car had been stolen. FML

I would think they would've told you that before you entered the raffle.

The party and prizes were for the employee's morale - not yours. Grow up OP.

67 - "when you were born you had nothing" "so can i please rob your house?" House==nothing. Plus, this raffle was meant for employees.

Makes sense... an office party is for the people who work there. An employee deserved to get the prize.

Then they should have told OP before letting him buy tickets

Did anyone else read 'gift raffle' as 'giraffe'? If not, carry on.

This comment train may have been better than the FML.
FFML_314 11
I didn't see this as being such a difficult question to answer. Even when I don't intend to, an argument erupts when I'm around.

FFML its probably because you thought of something witty and clever and they didn't so they try to make a complete fool of you. I did think it said giraffe. And if this whole thing i just wrote actually made sence I would be dumbfounded. Thank You.
FFML_314 11
I work really hard to be witty and clever. Unappreciative, rotten bastards.
ItsJustMak 0
Amen to That.
unidentified_sta 5
I'm an unappreciative and rotten bastard. By the way, cannot recall my first impressions of the OP sorry.

Why is your picture a wolf? Team Jacob I assume?
unidentified_sta 5
Far, far off the mark. "Insanity Wolf", one of the bases of the image macros you may or may not have seen before.

The funny thing about 22 is that he typed 'you' instead of 'your' ;)

FFML, I've told you this before. It's the sexual tension.

fk all the ppl who commented above me, who gives a shit wut u read it is wut it is. fk all these ppl who keep correcting spellin its nt a freakin oxford discussion page, fk all the smart asses who come here to laugh at ppl while their life is far worse, fk all these ppl who keep judging ppl even if its based only on a damn pic, reply to that dumbasses
FFML_314 11
Shut up, idiot. Learn how to sound intelligent and I'll learn how to not correct you and laugh at your dumbass.
angrynegro7 16
Ok, you asked for it! 1) I find it ironic that you're calling everybody out as dumb-asses seeing that you're clearly ******* illiterate. 2) The whole point of Fmylife is for people to laugh at, sympathize with, and comment on people's misfortunes. 3) This may not be an Oxford discussion board, but what the **** happened to having standards and bare minimums? If you feel like arguing a point, at the very least you should show that you can read, write, and speak at just a little higher than a kindergartner's level of education...dumb-ass.
zazooftanzania 4
sound ??? so u just pretend to be smart while ur a stupid bitch, u see that cat nxt to thats the only thing ur gonna be living with, bitches die alone
zazooftanzania 4
#90 who the fk is askin or talkin to u? or are u just an ass who cant wait to "sound" smart. to make up for the emptyness in ur heart ur an idiot on the web and probably a moron in life. abt the spellin smarty pants im pointing out ppl who keep correcting it just let it ago everyone knows wut they ment
zazooftanzania 4
oh and #90 as for ur secound point thats like sayin the whole point of ur mum is to be fkd... think abt it
angrynegro7 16
Thanks for proving me right! ;)
FFML_314 11
You are really dumb. Which makes me really happy.
angrynegro7 16
i seem to recall YOU making an open challenge to anyone on this thread to respond to your original comment. Now you want to get your panties in a twist when someone takes you up on it, huh? Do you also walk into bars, challenge people to fights, and then cry to the police after getting your ass handed to you? As for your comment about my mother, that's a schoolyard move, and I'm not going to dignify it. I'm not even going to point out the irony of YOU calling ME and idiot and a moron, while actually arguing IN FAVOR of people writing like they flunked out of grade school You get a gold star though, for trying to back that argument up, by actually sounding like YOU didn't pass the 2nd grade. Congratulations, you couldn't even bring a knife to this intellectual gun fight, could you? You had to be the retard who brought a wiffle-bat. Have a nice day...dumb-ass.
FFML_314 11
I think (s)he understand the stupidity that they are putting forth, but it's for lack of caring. Some people live to be stupid. It's something we, the higher ups, have to learn to deal with, unfortunately.

haha the joke is on you
