Today, I was feeling really sick at work. I messaged my boss whether his girlfriend, who also works there, could cover me. He then came down, shouting at me that whatever illness I have, I've also passed on to his girlfriend. I'm pregnant. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, at work, someone heard me throw up. I then got called aside and told being hungover at work is unacceptable. I don't drink. I'm pregnant. FML
Today, I went to visit my boyfriend at work. That's where I met his pregnant girlfriend. FML
Today, I'm pregnant and feeling awful due to all-day-long morning sickness. My doctor suggested that I cancel all my social plans to be able to keep working. My doctor is also my husband, and the father of this child. FML
Today, despite having a stomach bug, I went into work, as my boss is overseas and had warned me not to take any sick leave until she returned. After 4 hours and vomiting twice, I left. She found out and sent me an email bitching me out for coming in sick. FML
Today, as I was pulling into work at 15 weeks pregnant, I projectile vomit all over myself and my vehicle. I had an emotional breakdown as I went back home, and called my boss to let him know I would not be in that day. I am now looking for a new job. FML
Today, at work, I had some palpitations, which ultimately caused me to become hot, dizzy, and pass out. I couldn't go home because we were so short staffed, and three different colleagues asked me if I was pregnant. FML
Today, my boss fired me because he found out I'm dating his daughter. Now I'm concerned what he might do if he finds out she's pregnant with my child. FML
Today, I got rear-ended while on my way to work. This wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't pregnant, suffering from a horrible UTI, and running a fever. My boss called in sick, so now I'm stuck running the office alone. With whiplash. FML
Today, I announced my pregnancy to my boss. I was expecting all sorts of reactions, except, "But... Erm... How did that happen?" FML
Today, I found out I'm pregnant. Last week my coworker, who I sit next to 5 days a week, returned to work after bereavement maternity leave. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's pretty selfish of you. Try to keep your pregnant germs to yourself from now on.

Why does it seem like almost every boss in the world is either really stupid or really incompetent.

Sounds to me like someone's boss needs to go back to biology and learn about reproduction again....

What the? Who are you to tell OP how to speak?
doodlecloud 27
Not sure why I got thumbed down quite so much. I hardly attacked OP like some commenters on here would do over incorrect their/your usage. I asked nicely. I even said please!

And to clarify because I think some people may be confused, I didn't comment because I have some weird word preferences that I try and push on others, it's just grammatically incorrect, and badly so.

It's not grammatically incorrect though...

if his girlfriend is sick in the same way as you, and you're sick because you're pregnant, then can we safely assume that his girlfriend is pregnant as well? lol but seriously, FYL for having such a stupid, insensitive (assuming he knows you're sick because you're pregnant) boss

Well that'll teach you to cough your pregnancy germs everywhere. Inconsiderate. *eye roll*

I can't believe you didn't wash your hands, everyone knows that's how you catch these things!

If I were you I would've told him to buy some diapers and get ready because...you're pregnant. And if she has what you have he better be ready
