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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
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
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, my boss came around to my way of thinking. He called our customers a "bunch of assholes" and to kick them out if they gave me trouble. When a lady began yelling at me for "setting the damn prices too high" I told her to leave. My boss soon bitched me out for being unprofessional. 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
Today, while working at my call center, I took a phone call. The guy on the other line just yelled "FUCK YOU!" twice at the top of his lungs before hanging up on me. But of course, the phone agent is always at fault. FML
Today, my mom has been calling me every ten minutes, asking me questions about her new computer. She called me at work, and I rudely answered her question. She called back, talked to my boss, saying she was a customer that called in, and I was rude to her. FML
Today, at the office, my boss lectured me for being two minutes late for work, even though yesterday I worked on my lunch break because she needed my help. important to mention: my boss is my sister. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me so furiously that she sprayed my face with spittle. I had to stand there, smiling and politely explaining that I needed to see a receipt before I could give her a refund. When she finally gave up and left, my boss bitched me out for "provoking the customer". FML
Today, working in customer support, I received a call from a woman who'd just been robbed. My supervisor asked what was taking so long; I told him that she was hysterical. He took my phone and told her to call back when she had her "shit together", then hung up. I take orders from this dude. FML
Today, I had to call a coworker to the office via the store intercom. The damn thing didn't turn off properly and everyone heard me say, "I hate that asshole. Just be where your dumb ass should be." I realized my mistake a few seconds before my manager stormed in and threatened to fire me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Caller ID or not, the number pops up on the phone. Every carrier I've had (Verizon, Sprint, US Cellular, Helio) at least give you the incoming number. Now if you know that person you can save their name to that number. If someone calls that you don't know then it will be just the number but you'll be able to see that it's not your sister.

why didn't you just turn the phone off- would have made a whole lot more sense than letting it ring 37 times

Haha, I was just moderating FMLs and one came up that said "I called my brother to pick me up from the mall. He hung up on me. Then I got attacked by savage monkeys". Fail.

okay guys give him(or her) the benefit of the doubt..i mean their phone rings 37 times and they dont answer BUT the ONE time they do its their boss..ehh sketchy? yes- but on the other hand, ive had days when im like "hey wouldnt it be funny if my phone falls out of my pocket and lands in the toilet when im going to the bathroom, and it does..and ALSO it turns out-not so funny after all" but i think you all get what im saying, shit happens and thats what this website is for.. but as for you,guy (or girl) youre out to lunch huh? number 1, out of respect for the person you are eating with,and the people eating around you, your phone should have been A) off or B) atleast on vibrate. and number 2, uhh dont you text? and shit, who doesnt check whos calling them before answering? TOTALLY YOUR FAULT BUDDY.. i mean i constantly check whos calling me, doesnt anybody else avoid credit card collection agencies like i do? hahaha (and i say FML to my previous statement..haha) and ALSO..i LLLOOOOOVEEE how ALLLLLLLL the people in the world who dont have caller id find this message board to write on.. like really? really? what the f?

Well here in Australia, you can set your phone to not send out 'an ID' to the receiving end. So the receiver will just see either "Private Number" or "Withheld Number".
