A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I was working in a restaurant. On the receipt under "tip" someone actually took the time to write out "$0.00." FML

The customer is sometimes devious
Today, I found out that I accidentally returned a customer her $147 check she had written out to pay for her groceries and receive cash back. The lady got free groceries and money, and I'm now losing my job. FML

Today, after starting my new career as a server, two women were kind enough to leave a $5 tip… while still owing $6.84 on their bill. FML

Not my fault
Today, it was my first day as a server at Olive Garden and a customer walked out without paying. It was the new manager's first day too, and he decided to write me up. FML

9 to 5, what a way to not make a living
Today, I excitedly went to check this week's paycheck, only to see that I only received $9.00. This isn't a mistake, this is really what I make. FML

Today, I was waitressing for a huge family. Their bill was $750. Excited about the tip, I was shocked to see only $0.50. As they were leaving, I threw the two whole quarters at their heads. Guess who also got fired today. FML

Scammers gonna scam
Today, it was the day that I had been waiting for weeks to arrive: I finally finished the hiring process for my new job… Only to find out not only my paycheck, but the job itself was fake. Thanks Indeed, my first new bank account after years of debt, my disability, and my will to live greatly appreciate it. FML

Today, while working at a chain restaurant, I forgot to charge someone a few dollars for extra toppings on the side. My stingy boss took the time to take that money out of my paycheck. FML

I got a last check of $23 they took all of money for insurance that was supposed to be canceled a month ahead. they took $400+ and sent me a check, not direct deposit like they normally did. my bank is 3 hours away I specifically said to direct deposit. i couldn't deposit it. I was relying on that check to put a deposit down on power. I had to borrow money from my mom and we were a month behind on power for months. turns out they did it because I was supposed to take the head managers position so he could be promoted. I kept telling them I was moving so he decided to not cancel insurance and take my money to get back at me. asshole.
