Today, I asked my boss if I could have a bigger cubicle. I'm now working in one that is half the size of my old one. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my intern was given his own office. I have been asking to move out of my cubicle for nearly four years. FML
Today, my boss showed me how he wants his office redecorating. We have employees on minimum wage and yet he wants a private bathroom, large screen TV, sofa and PlayStation, and a decorative suit of armour, all in an office that’s already bigger than my one bedroom flat. FML
Today, for the third time this week, my boss made me switch desks. Each new desk is closer to the door than the last one. I think he's trying to tell me something. FML
Today, the guy in the cubicle across from me complained about me to our boss. Apparently, his relatives heard me typing something on his daily 8+ hour call to them, and now don't believe he has his own office. My boss took his side and asked me to type quieter. FML
Today, I went into my former workplace. While there, an ex-coworker told me that after I quit, they split my position into two separate jobs. When I worked there, my boss had told me to suck it up whenever I said there was too much work for just one person. FML
Today, I got a new chair at work. After spending three hours putting it together, I was called into my boss's office and let go. FML
Today, I was promoted to a management position and finally get to have my own office, only to find out it's located in the basement and has no windows. FML
Today, I got written up for asking my coworker a question that I should have asked my boss to ask my coworker. Yay bureaucracy. FML
Today, I asked my boss for a raise. He gave me a cupcake. FML
Today, I once again got less than 20 hours of work for the entire week. My boss's solution? Double the staff. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

He should of just left you at the one you were at, but that's what you get for asking a simple question now a days.

Your boss was just imposing his authority over you to make himself feel powerful. You know what that means, OP? He's very insecure and probably has a really shitty life. There, now don't you feel better? :)

Tell you boss you wish he had a bigger dick and hope your strange reverse magic also works on him;)

Ask for a smaller one, you may get the wanted at the first place

I hate when people post on here "sorry" or "lol" or "haha" what a waste of a comment! So unnecessary. Leave this space for the fml fights (the best) and funny/clever comments :)

39, what are you doing to Pedobear? He looks mortified!

39 is trying to use the duck face to get Pedobear shot. BANG!! Duck season.

That's grumpy bear! And I was giving him a kiss to make him feel better. Guess you didn't notice the hospital bracelet on his arm :/

No, 39, I hadn't noticed the hospital bracelet. Well, that's sweet of you then, I guess. Unless you're the one who put him in the hospital in the first place... DUN DUN DUN

Try reverse phsycology. Say 'Sir, I love my small cubicle! I wish it was smaller though... Not cozy enough!'

Put a big mirror one one of the walls and your cubicle will appear twice the size.. Probably even the same size as your old one (:

Maybe it's payback for flirting and telling the receptionist who happens to be his wife that she's bangable. (other FML reference)

Well done, sir. And now it's time to annoy your boss with your small cubicle by having your crap spill out all over the place and into the hall. :)
