Today, my boss insisted that we get in the holiday mood by putting up lights, playing Christmas music, and wearing bells on our uniforms. It's not even Thanksgiving yet and I can't even have a tinkle without full-blown jingling. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my manager made everyone put up Christmas decorations around the store. As well as this, we're going to have Christmas music playing on repeat all the way through to January. It's not even September yet. FML
Today, my boss made me wear reindeer antlers to promote the Christmas spirit. There are still 5 weeks till Christmas. FML
Today, the mall I work at started playing Christmas songs on repeat. It's the beginning of November. FML
Today, and every day this week, my office mate has decided to "liven up the place" by singing and whistling Christmas tunes and other unknown songs. She has zero musical ability. FML
Today, I came home to find my parents wearing Santa hats and blasting Christmas music at full volume. So begins three months of hell. FML
Today, my neighbor installed a large radio that loudly plays Christmas music 24/7. When I called in a complaint to the police department they told me to, "get in the Christmas spirit." FML
Today, my neighbors coated their house in flashing Christmas lights and blared out "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" all day long. Only 29 days left until Christmas. FML
Today, after telling my bosses how much I dislike the Christmas holiday, they assigned ME to organize and host a holiday party for our whole company, with a “Mariah Carey Christmas Karaoke.” I hate Christmas. FML
Today, I wore my Christmas sweater to work, one with lights sewn into it. Halfway through a meeting, they started flashing uncontrollably and playing tinny carols. I couldn’t turn them off. I had to go shove the whole sweater into a locker in the basement. FML
Today, my boss threw a pre-Christmas party at work. He always uses them to rant at us and tell us to be better employees. When the speech began, the alarm I have set for my daily birth control went off. It's the sound of an obnoxious screaming child. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

a coworker did that once, I put on a song by weird al yankovick..... "the night santa went crazy" talks about santa pulling out an AK-47 on blitzon and making sausage out of rudolph. she let me be me afterwards.

btw, play the freedom of religion card and say you don't celebrate Christmas for religious reasons and find it highly Offensive! More people need to slap a law suit on companies forcing their beliefs on their employees. Funny how you can't offend a gay but you can force a christian to listen to your atheist music! research the date christ was born.... not in the winter! That guarantees the music is satanic!

Excuse me you ignorant person. Christmas was actually stolen from paganism. Its actually celebrating the winter equinox. So seeing as catholosism stole it, its probably not right, so I do agree with that. It is not though "satanic" music... though I imagine after a rant like yours you also believe the government is watching you and aliens implanted a chip in your neck... and please explain to me how "frosty the snowman" converts "youll burn in hell you evil sinner"...

I HATE PEOPLE. Can they seriously not see it's only a huge marketing ploy?! Halloween is rapidly approaching the same, astronomically overblown marketing grandeur. I swear, most holidays as still around, ponly to give lazy federal employees yet another paid day off, and for furniture sales.
