Today, my boss made me wear reindeer antlers to promote the Christmas spirit. There are still 5 weeks till Christmas. FML
Collection
Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
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
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 sent me a text message saying, "You're fired. Merry 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, my boss sent a Christmas present… to my dog. FML
Today, my manager rejected my leave application for Christmas. Later I found out that I'm going to be the only employee working at the office during Christmas. FML
Today, my boss decided that a mug and a public 'thank you' were a sufficient substitute for a Christmas bonus. FML
Today, my boss thought it would be a great idea to delay paying me until after Christmas. There goes rent, bills, food and of course Christmas presents. FML
Today, it's Christmas day. Normally, I'd be spending it with family. However, my boss decided everyone has to work today, despite the fact that there's enough people who want to work to run the place. Apparently it's "fairer" if we all have to do it - except him. FML
Today, while at work, I was asked to see my boss. I was informed that the company would be laying off 20 people, and that I was one of them. I was told I could finish off the week, then was sent back to work. Twenty minutes later, my boss walked around and handed us all Christmas party invitations. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

WTF was your boss thinking? FYL. Your boss should be wearing them.

Oh big deal, so you had to wear something on your head for a few hours. If that's the worst thing you have to complain about I'd say you have a pretty good life. Suck it up and stop being a whiny brat.

FYL!? That would be the most awesome thing that could possibly ever happen. Thank your lucky ******' stars that your boss has a sense of humour, and isn't a complete scrooge. NOW! On with the festivities, and wear those antlers with pride, no Bah humbugs for you!

So what. Your work consisted of wearing reindeer antlers and making people happy! How is this bad? You were pretty much paid to be immature! Thats rare and amazing.

So? I guess I just don't see the "FML" in this one. Suck it up and do your job. Big deal.

the name the op uses here makes me think this should not have been allowed through as a fml.

Not an FML. If you work, especially in retail or anything like that, you have to expect that. The stores start playing Christmas music and putting up decorations earlier every year.

Were they surgically attached or something? Don't worry, after Christmas you can have them sawn off and filed down. Your stumps will be barely noticeable. In the mean time, don't play with your fuzz too much. (I'm referring to the reindeer antler fuzz.)

that is poor advice, play with the fuzz as much as possible. Much more fun.

If she chooses to play with the other fuzz, we want video!

Maybe I did blow up, but my point remains. I've been getting the proverbial shaft from job after job after job for some time now, and with winter practically here, I can't afford to be homeless. If I had to wear reindeer antlers to get minimum wage, I'd do it in a heartbeat and a half, since, y'know, I like eating and all the other good things that come from having money.
