Today, I realized I might lose my job because some asshole customer complained about me to my district manager. His complaint? Girls can't work at video game stores. My DM agreed. FML

Today, at work, a table of girls complained to the manager about me. The complaint? "He's not hot enough to work here. We want a sexy server." The manager agreed with them and sent me home. I might lose my job because of a table of shallow women. FML

Today, I was shopping at my workplace, out of uniform, with my husband. A customer recognised me and wanted me to serve him, but I couldn't since we can be fired for doing so while off-duty. He complained to my manager, who wasted no time publicly bitching me out. FML

Insult of the week

Anonymous - 01/04/2016 20:21 - United States - Slidell

Today, a customer got angry with me, because store policy says we can't accept returns of unsealed video games unless there's actual damage to the disc. The guy got enraged and started yelling about how I'm a "useless fuckwhistle". I almost got written up for laughing so hard at the insult. FML

Today, I'm no longer allowed to work the drive-thru at my job, because over the weekend, 3 dumbasses I go to school with came in and complained to my manager, saying I sounded a creepy pervert and that it scared them enough to take their business elsewhere. FML

Today, a man tried to rob the store I work at. Before the guy was taken by the cops, he complained to my manager for "unfriendly behavior". He took it seriously and bitched me out for not providing "quality service" to our customers. FML

Today, I had a formal complaint filed against me for being outrageously rude to a customer. All I did was tell a customer that she couldn't use food stamps at the movie theater. FML

I spy a gender discrimination lawsuit!

Oh, sexism. Never ceases to amaze me. There was a dad at the school I used to work for who would call in and scream at all the women, and then tell the men that "he couldn't believe they could handle working with so many women". FYL indeed, OP.

I get that all the time. I work at an electronics store. I'll tell a customer something about a computer and they will go ask the same thing to a male co-worker

Seriously, you'd think they'd want more girls there. It'd increase sales like crazy!

Sexist bastard! Prepare the lawsuit if you are fired. As a side note I had to reread this since I read DM and my mind went to Dungeon Master rather than District Manager.

This FML is even better when you read DM as Dungeon Master.

I don't understand what's wrong with people. A girl can't work in a video game store? That's retarded. My girlfriend would be perfect for working in one. I mean she murders everybody in COD.

To hell with that. There's a girl that works at a shop near me that i would divorce all of my future wives for because of her gamer-nerdness.

SUE! This is a textbook example of gender discrimination. I've never worked in a video game store, but I kicked the assess of plenty of male gamers back in the day. Soul Calibur was my favorite.
