Today, I had a customer scream at me for ruining their child's birthday party. They had bought a Piñata from me and didn't know they had to fill it themselves. The kids had hit it open and it was empty. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, a customer complained about me for getting their order wrong. This would have been fine if they hadn't sent their ten-year-old kid to order for them. FML
Today, a customer yelled at me because the cherry pie he bought had cherries in it, and he wanted a refund. FML
Today, my son accidentally damaged another kid in the face with a baseball bat, while blindfolded trying to hit a piñata. Except there was no piñata, or blindfold. FML
Today, a kid got his hand stuck inside my store's giant gumball machine. He started crying, and his negligent trainwreck of a mom bitched me out for being "unobservant." I'd been mopping up the mess she'd made after she'd spilled an open can of beer all over the floor. FML
Today, one of our store's beach balls came out of nowhere and whacked me in the back of my head. I started reaming out two young girls for playing in the store, even when they said it wasn't them. Soon after, one of my employees admitted that it was her. I made some 7-year-olds cry and it wasn't them. FML
Today, I received an angry phone call from a friend whose birthday party I missed last night. Yesterday, I gave birth to my son. She claims that I ruined her party and demands I still bring her a birthday gift. FML
Today, I was hosting my kid's birthday party. I had a bunch of small trinkets, so I grabbed the first container I could find to put them in. It wasn’t until I went out and someone yelled, "I’ll take a heavy flow!" that I realized it was an empty tampon box. FML
Today, as a pizza delivery driver, I delivered to a customer with young kids. She gave the pizzas to one of her kids to take inside, where the kid dropped them and it went everywhere. She then rang the store and claimed that I'd dropped the pizzas, then told her to "suck it up." FML
Today, I was at work, stocking shelves. A customer got mad because I was in the way of her "shopping time" and knocked down all the work I had done. FML
Today, I got sent home from work after a customer's daughter kicked me in the balls because her order was wrong. She was 6 years-old. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's just....idiotic. Even if the customer didn't know you had to fill them, you'd think they would feel/hear that there was nothing inside it. An empty pinata is much lighter than a full one. o_O

Some people just need to learn to make basic assumptions...

Common sense is a super power.

I can understand if they thought that initially, but couldn't they tell from the weight? TDI.
DustyStorm 16
Read....or even be able to tell by the weight of the piñata that it's empty...

Candy? Man. I put hot sauce and gravy in my piñata

I filled mine with waterproof matches and gasoline. And one shiny new quarter. I used it to teach seven year olds the concepts of Mutually Assured Destruction and Limited Resources. ...I'm not a teacher anymore.

#54 I would have also noticed from the lack of the sound of candy moving around in it

By weight? Just shake it...
pdp_fml 21
Gee, even I know that a Piñata has to be filled with candy.
RonnieG 10
what did you think it was filled with?
SqueakyChipmunk 22
Sausages, according to Miley Cyrus.

Either that, or they were too stupid that they thought: "It's not rustling when I shake it. It must be JAM PACKED with candy!"

Maybe they assumed it was a diet piñata and the lightness was due to the lack of calories. Anything is possible with stupid people.

AHAAA... I am laughing so hard I have the hiccups... the mental picture is pure gold.

The ultimate disappointment. That's worse than opening your wallet when there's no money in it. I feel sorry for the kids.

I think you should consider giving up this commenting thing, buddy
Zimmington 21
Nah, I like the way it feels when you thumb me
buddy51 23
It's a thumb-him party- see, he likes it!!

So they thought 20$ pays for a pound of candy too? They deserve it, and FYL.
Wowxoxo 17
Candy is pretty cheap, so it's possible
Wakachulak 22
Pinanta's however, are not.
ottokat 15
I think OP clarifyed that the bought a pinata, and not a pinanta this time.
Incognito_1924 17
91, that awkward moment when you try to correct someone's spelling and spell something wrong in your own post.. **clarified**
ottokat 15
God damnit, I knew it looked weird. And I'm so hard on myself when it comes to grammar, too. Oh, and I was trying to make a joke, which failed, obviously.

Smashingly disappointing.

In a Nigel Thornberry voice, "Smashing!"

Wow I guess some piñatas just don't like being hit on.

Every one knows that you need to fill it with candy the her dumb butt fault.
