Today, I opened my new clothing store. My only customer was my mom and the only reason she came in was to tell me that someone stole my sign. FML

Today, I got flowers sent to my work, I happily opened them in front of my co-workers thinking they were from my crush, I open the card to see "Love you, from mom". My mother thinks my love life is so pathetic, thats she needs to send me flowers to cheer me up. FML

Today, my mom told me that she doesn't want me to help any of my friends get a job at the restaurant I work at. Apparently, she thinks that they would do a better job than me and get me fired. FML

Today, I bought some flowers. As I was checking out, the cashier asked, "Aww, these for your mom? How sweet." I responded they were for a girl I liked. She laughed and said, "Sorry…" FML

Today, is the third day since I opened my small coffee shop. My parents had given me a nice frame to put my first dollar from working in. I had to sneak in a dollar from my own wallet so they wouldn't know how bad business was when they came to visit. FML

Today, my dad undermined my life's work. I finally opened my own bakery, but my dad told me it's a "sissies job" since it doesn't involve manual labour like he did for 50 years and I'll probably go out of business, because no one will want cakes from a 6 foot 8 man with tattoos, piercings and a shaved head.

Today, was my mom's birthday. I recently got my first job, thanks to her, and could finally afford to buy her something nice. I spent my first paycheck ever on buying her a very nice bracelet. She said it was nice, then asked if I would mind if she exchanged it for one she actually liked. FML

Today, I tried to get a job at Walmart. My mom was the hiring manager. She turned me down due to lack of work experience. FML

good luck in your success, and that's a terrible way to treat anyone, let alone your own child. If you ever make it big and she asks for money, repeat her "wisdom" back to her and tell her to get a real job.

Is this a real, live flower shop? That would be a job! If this is a Sims flower shop or some Etsy bullshit, I'm with your mom.

Hope your 'mums are better than your biological one! I find flower puns difficult but for this, I really rose to the occasion.

That sad day when you realize. Your mother may be an idiot. maybe you should send her flowers?

Awesome job with opening your own flower shop, I hope you succeed. Did you really open your shop at the right time though considering how many businesses aren't making it right now because lack of foot traffic, and state of the economy because of the pandemic?
