Today, at a job interview, my interviewer excused himself to use the bathroom, so I took the chance to let out a tiny fart I'd been holding in. That tiny fart filled the whole room. When he came back, the guy literally stopped dead in his tracks and recoiled at the stench. Doubt I'll get that job. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I let out a huge fart during a job interview. I was the one conducting the interview. FML
Today, I had a job interview. I stopped to take a pee in the lobby before I went in. I relaxed a bit too much at the urinal and accidentally farted. I chuckled about it like a 5 year-old for a few seconds. The guy who had been next to me at the urinal was the interviewer. FML
Today, I went to a really important job interview. During it, I accidentally let out a burp, came down with nervous hiccups, and when I tried to quietly ease out some painful gas that was building up, it came out as a massive, rancid fart. I'll definitely be unemployed for a while yet. FML
Today, while interviewing a potential candidate for a job, I farted during a moment of silence. Trying to cover it up, I blurted out, "Wow, this chair is squeaky!" The candidate just stared at me, and I'm pretty sure their chances of getting the job squeaked away, because I couldn't bear seeing them every day after that. FML
Today, I had a job interview. The interviewer blatantly farted as I sat down, then she sneered, "Making yourself comfortable, I see..." FML
Today, I made the major mistake of trusting a fart during a job interview. Needless to say, I didn’t get the job. FML
Today, I went to a job interview, and halfway through my perfectly rehearsed answers, my stomach started growling loudly. I tried to keep calm, but then it let out the most embarrassing noise I’ve ever heard. The interviewer paused what he was saying, then said, "Are you hungry or do you need to fart?" FML
Today, I went to an interview for a job I really wanted and am qualified for. I've been looking for months. This job was perfect; close to home and great pay. Needless to say I spent quite a while preparing. Everything was going great until I had to sneeze, which forced out a loud, long fart. FML
Today, I was alone at the office. Having held it in all day, I let out the longest, worst-smelling fart of my life. The owner of the company, investigating the odd noise, opened my office door. When the stench hit him, he walked backwards all the way to his office, staring at me, in silence. FML
Today, while waiting for my job interview to start, I tried to slip out a silent fart. It ended with shit running down my leg. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You're supposed to tout your strengths in an interview...but you shouldn't literally toot your own horn.

At least you can interview at Exxon now. You know everything about gas.

Bodily function or not. It is about self control. Wrong time wrong place.

Because it can always be controlled? Maybe the pressure build up was painful, and making it hard to concentrate. Sometimes it just happens. Some people don't have as much control too, and they just slip out. It happens. Get over it.

I'm surprised; by how many commenters can control their farts at will. Do you guys practice, or do you just keep a cork with you at all times?

As far as I'm aware, it's actually pretty easy to hold one in. I've literally never not been able to if need be.

I can clench
Migole 36
I can't either 31 :( I can clench all I want and it will still come out (although at least silently).They don't stink a lot most of the time so it's usually not an inconvenience. Still annoying though ... (My boyfriend on the other hand can hold them in for hours)

I had a really hard time keeping them in when I was pregnant. And I've had times when it's actually painful to keep them in. And all these people who have issues with farting. I'm curious their stance on burping.

I'll genuinely never, ever understand the issue with farting. Unless you're of a religion or culture that views bodily functions as a guarantee of eternity spent in some hitherto undiscovered hell-like dimension, it's just a bodily function for ****'s sake. If you didn't get the job it's 'cos you suck at interviews, OP, nothing to do with the room filler you let out!

That's why I never fart in a car or a room with a/c.

Blame it on the air conditioner

Should've gone to the bathroom bud.

Ma'am, you have got to master the ass-clench technique! Let it out slowly, and plant your cheeks firmly to the seat to keep the waft from filling the room.

never trust a fart

You couldn't have just gone to the restroom at the same time to let that out?
