Today, moments after leaving early, my boss emails me asking if I'm in the office. After an illegal U-turn, running a stop sign, parking in a visitor spot, and sneaking back to my desk, I find out she was locked out of the building but had since found her keys and let herself back in. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I snuck out of work 2 hours early. As I was speeding away so I wouldn't be seen, I rear-ended my boss as he was leaving the lower parking lot for a late lunch. FML
Today, I sneaked off work early. As I was in the elevator on the way down to leave, it stopped at my boss's floor, and he got in. FML
Today, my first day on the job, I locked up the office after everyone left and set the alarm. An hour later, my new boss angrily emailed me that I locked him inside the building, setting off the alarm and prompting the entire police department to show up. FML
Today, my boss contacted me to come in for a quick meeting. I drove 30 minutes to get to work only to find out she was firing me and wanted my key card back. FML
Today, I was running late for work. I was trying to find my car keys, then realized I'd left them in my boyfriend's car. My phone charger was locked in my car, and my phone was dead. I couldn’t get hold of my boss and explain what had happened. I’m fired, aren’t I? FML
Today, I got locked out of a building that I work in (I work night shifts). I locked my phone, wallet, and car keys in the building. I had no way of contacting my boss or getting a ride. I had to walk home at night, almost got hit by a car full of dudes yelling slurs, and had a woman scream at me from the passenger seat of a car. FML
Today, my boss walked down to my office with me to get some paperwork after a very tense, important meeting. He patiently waited while I tried to unlock my office door with my remote for my car. Twice. FML
Today, after closing down the gas station I work at, I went to unlock the door to the building. Turned out the lock broke and I was locked inside until my boss could get there to let me out. FML
Today, my boss left early, so I decided to take an extended break and run home. I found my wife in bed with my boss. I got fired for leaving work. FML
Today, I got pissed and tried to storm out of work, only to get outside and realize I couldn't because I'd let my coworker borrow my car for lunch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

my interpretation is that they left work early, apparently without telling their boss. the boss's email (though i dont see how that happened considering the OP was driving and the boss was locked out of the office) made the OP think that they had been caught. they turned around, blah blah did all the illegal things and found out it wasn't about leaving early. |:

English is clearly the hardest language for you to learn #10. OP said he snuck into his desk, meaning he didn't get caught or was locked outside. The FML part was doing so many illegal things over nothing, OP thought their boss caught them, but instead they just needed a key.

I dont really get it besides all those traffic violations.

She left early because her boss was gone. While driving home her boss e mails her "are you still in the office." She doesn't want to get caught leaving early so she rushes back to work (making illegal turns and such) and finds the door locked. So she can't get back in to her office.

No, it says they got back to their desk. The FML part is doing all those illegal stuff and worrying over nothing.

Still shouldn't be checking your email when you're driving. And don't say that's being a pussy because a lot of people are killed because of it.

True. I'm too scared to leave work early, with permission or not.

hmm sounds to me like the person pulled all the illegal maneuvers to stay out of trouble but was still caught because the boss had made it back inside?
airhead2015 18
No, wasn't caught, they made it back to their desk. OP did all those illegal stuff over nothing. That's the FML.
