Today, my boss called me in to tell me I had got a raise. I bought a $1500 Chanel bag. Two hours later he called me in to tell me he was kidding. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my coworker got a raise by making our boss give me a pay cut for doing his job while he was slacking off. As we were heading home for the day, he found $100. FML
Today, I went to ask my boss for a raise. He laughed at me and said, "That's hilarious because I was going to ask you if you could take a pay cut!" FML
Today, I asked my boss for a raise. He gave me a cupcake. FML
Today, I discovered that as thanks for my successful efforts to increase my company's monthly revenue, my dumbass of a boss has been awarded a pay bonus. He's wasted no time telling everyone about the sports car he's planning to buy with it. FML
Today, for some reason, I called my boss "Mum" in a meeting. To make it worse, I panicked and followed it up with, “Can I have a raise?” Everyone laughed except my boss. FML
Today, my boss asked me to talk to the HR manager to see if I was happy about my pay, which made me think I was going to get a raise. Turns out they paid me nearly twice as much as they should have for the last 2 years and I owe them over €5000. FML
Today, I was in a bad mood after being stuck in traffic for 2 hours and late for work. I was walking to my building when I saw a 100 dollar note flying my way. A man called after me for it, but being selfish I took the note in my pocket as a little reward. That man was my boss. Yes, I'm fired. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, at the job I've had for eight years, I finally got the raise I was supposed to get a year ago. One hour later I found out the store was closing and we were all out of a job in two weeks. FML
Today, I met with my boss hoping to hear about a possible raise that had been promised many months ago. He then told me that the only way I would get a raise was if I found a better paying job and took it, and that the company was in no position to offer anyone a raise. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It was stupid on your bosses part, but even more stupid on your part. Here is some advice for you: don't spend money that you don't have! But, I guess anyone who spends $1500 on a handbag wouldn't be smart enough to do that. The next time you want to throw away money like that, give it to me and I'll use it to spend on my tuition.

At least when dudes splurge it's on something multiple people can use like a T.V. or game system. Can't she return it?

Spending $1500 on a bag and the word reasonable in the same sentence ? Why slap my face and call me crazy. That is simply hilarious. The mentioning of the brand alone just proves the woman's vanity in my opinion. Why not tell the story without mentioning Chanel ? Or would that give less meaning to the FML ? It's not even an FML since the bag can be returned. As for video games I wouldn't really call them useless. There's a lot of coordination and skill in playing video games which can sharpen your reflexes as well as puzzles that can sharpen your mind. Call bs all you want but it's really a fact. As for the sports games, those can still serve as bonding moments either with friends or father and son or whatever. The difference here is that you are buying a bag to supposedly put your things in. You can easily can buy a bag that is way cheaper and can still serve the same purpose. But noooooo....you need a $1500 Chanel bag. Give me a break !!!

That's your fault for buying a $1500 bag immediately after the boss says you got a raise..

I agree i mean srsly. Even if you actually got the raise their are way better things to spend $1500 on. Like food, rent, or a savings account.
