Today, 50,000 copies of the new edition of the town's phone book came out. I manage a pizza place and bought a full menu ad. Apparently the ad designer got confused, as they placed my cell phone number in huge bold letters at the bottom of the ad instead of the store's phone number. FML

Theres a way to switch the number from that to your pizza places phone and then get a completely new cell number. Just call your phone companies.

Good advertising for free. Just use the cell for the company and get a new cell... And of course, refuse to pay the ad. Win-win-win.

Of course, the real FML here is that he spent all that money on advertising in a phone book. Does anyone these days actually *use* one of those?

They wouldn't print the ad unless someone signed off on it. So YDI for not proofing the ad before okaying it.

you have to proof the ad and sign-off on it before they run it. you should have paid better attention. it's your fault not theirs...

I would kick that guy in ****** balls if I wher you!!!

Now this is a legit FML, not just someone bitching about something trivial. FYL.

just leave tht as your work fone and get a new cell

If they want to keep your business, they owe you a LOT of free printing, not to mention pick-up and delivery of the items with misinfo.
