Today, my boss came storming towards me, screaming just how tired she is with my constant bullshit. Already pissed off, I retorted that she's a bitch and should go lose some pounds. Turns out she was talking to her husband on her bluetooth headset. FML

Same thing different taste

Listen up

Today, after years of listening to my coworker complaining about everything in her life, including her job, I finally stood up to her and bitched at her for complaining and not doing anything about it. She went to my boss, and now it's in my job description to listen to her when she complains. FML

Asshat walking

Today, a random customer at work admonished my coworker for being on her phone. During our lunch break. As he walked away, my coworker muttered, "What the fuck is his problem?" I nodded in agreement. He heard her and saw me nodding. As did our boss. Time to get written up. FML

Today, at work, my phone rang. My intern answered it and told me it was a coworker who'd just left. I picked up and said "What's up bitch? What are you going to complain about now?!" It was actually my boss. FML

Whiner!

By mrjude - This FML is from back in 2019 but it's good stuff

Today, my boss yelled at me, telling me that I can't answer the phone anymore. Not because I do a bad job, but because a co-worker whined about it being her job. People call her and complain about how rude she is and then ask to talk to me. FML

Today, I overheard my husband of 3 years talking to our boss, an attractive blonde. She was telling him that she couldn't believe he was with me. She thinks I'm fat and ugly and that he's hot. He said, "She's not that bad…" We work in the same store and she follows him around like a puppy. FML

Today, while out to lunch, my sister called me and asked me to pick her up from the mall. I told her she'd have to wait. She got pissed off and started cursing at me, so I hung up on her. She called me back 37 times until I answered and yelled "WILL YOU LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE?" It was my boss. FML

Today, my boss pulled me aside to chastise me for being "off task" because I was chatting with a co-worker while working on a project. She then spent a half hour chatting with the same person about what daycare she should go to for her new baby. FML

Today, I went to my boss with concerns that my manager is dumping her responsibilities on me. He agreed and told me to just do whatever she wants. She gets paid twice as much as me to talk on her cellphone all day. FML

Today, my boss rang me for the 5th time on my day off. Frustrated I pushed 'ignore' and yelled a string of obscenities at my phone. Turns out I pushed 'talk'. FML

That sounds like a perfectly reasonable, professional and level headed response.

Here's a horribly unfortunate reason not to use a bluetooth headset in public: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiCSzUCXN1U

Gawd, I ******* hate those bluetooth things. They make you look schizophrenic, and no one ever knows who you're talking to. I DON'T CARE HOW LAZY YOU ARE, HANDS-FREE IS NOT THE WAY TO GO

i agree with #49 i think it was, i voted both ways because it's not your fault that she was on her blue-tooth in the office, but also because you did kind of go a little too far with the weight thing... hope you didn't get fired or anything

Grow up. Even if your boss was talking to you, that's no way to react. Unless you never want to work again.

to make this easy bluetooth sucks in public, double check to make sure the person is talking to you, and do just use common since

Next time, maybe respond with an angry "EXCUSE ME?" before saying stuff like that. I'm sure if you did that, she would probably be like "hang on 1 sec. - not you, I'm talking to my hubby" or something. FYL but YDI.

why do people *always* go for the weight insult? people can't be original and insult people for something else? it's always something along the lines of go on weight watchers, fatty, or something like that.
