Today, while interviewing for a job, I had to read over the physical requirements for the job. Later on, she asked me how flexible I was. Trying to keep a straight face, I told her I was more flexible while I was playing sports but could work on it if I need to. She was talking about work hours. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had a job interview at a café. The interviewer asked me my availability and I told her that I was fully flexible. She laughed and said, "Really? That's tragic." FML
Today, during a job interview, I was asked to describe myself in three words. My mind went blank, so I panicked and blurted out, “Hungry, sleepy and… flexible?” The interviewer raised an eyebrow and said, “That's not the worst answer I've ever gotten but… come on.” I didn’t get the job. FML
Today, at a job interview, my interviewer bent forward and I admired his ass. When he turned, I couldn't tell if he caught me or not. At the end of the interview he shook my hand in congratulations of getting the job, then said, "Yes, I do work out." I have to see him every day now. FML
Today, I was working my job checking people in at the gym. A sweaty, chubby woman came up to me complaining about how our staff seems so fit. I replied, "We like to hire people who have bodies that motivate our clients!" She gave a blank stare, then said, "So how did you get the job?" FML
Today, at the camp that I work at, a little girl asked to "feel" my muscles. Thinking it was cute, I flexed for her. She laughed and said, "No, really." FML
Today, during a job interview, the interviewer asked me to “describe a time I overcame a challenge.” My mind went blank. After 10 seconds of silence, I blurted out, “Once, I tried to cancel my gym membership.” FML
Today, during a job interview, the interviewer asked me to "tell me a little about myself." Nervous, I started with, "Well, I was born at a very young age…" I'm pretty sure I won’t get the job. FML
Today, I went to a job interview, and the interviewer asked me to give an example of a time I went above and beyond for a customer. I proudly told him about the time I drove a customer home when their car broke down. The interviewer then asked me if I had any examples from a professional setting. FML
Today, at a job interview, I was asked what I thought of twerking. It was a bizarre question, but trying to get on the interviewer's good side, I said I thought it was pretty cool. He snorted and said I'll be job-seeking for a while yet. FML
Today, I was told that I don't meet the minimum requirements for a job I applied for. I currently hold the same job, at the same facility, but just wanted a day shift. Apparently I'm not qualified for the job I've had for 2 and a half years. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'm guessing in any other situation the OP would have known that "flexible" was referring to their availability, but he/she had finished reading the physical requirements for the job shortly before that.

You should have winked and said "Well, I was just about to ask you the same thing..." Assuming she wasn't a fat cow, of course. I mean, no one needs a job THAT bad.

Hey, it happens. If the boss can't take a mistake, you don't wanna work for her. At least you didn't SHOW her. "Ah, yeah, I can wrap myself around a pole like so... You didn't know this could go there? Well... oh, you mean... s***."

I can see that happening to me. I am so focused on gym right now that I will probably go into more details about how I'm in a yoga program, how I can do a split, etc. How is the OP a perv? When you think of flexibility, you automatically only think of sex? I call you guys pervs for having that though in the first place.

Reading FML comments is so irritating now. Either everyone says it's fake, or they just say "omg ur stupid". It's really annoying. Almost as annoying as saying "proceeded" in your FML. As for the OP - I would assume she meant that as well hahaha.

Not really sure why people are voting YDI. Seems like a legitimate response by the OP considering the topic of physical requirements.
