Today, I went to a job interview. The person giving me my interview was late, and while waiting for them I fell asleep. When they arrived, they didn't even bother interviewing me because they thought I was irresponsible since I fell asleep because they were late. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up early for a job interview. I got lost and arrived an hour late, only to find out it was the wrong day. FML
Today, I had a job interview. I got there as quick as I could, having to travel two hours into a city I'd never been to. When I arrived, they told me I was turned down for being too late. They'd rescheduled the interview an hour earlier and I wasn't notified of the change. FML
Today, I showed up on time for a job interview. After waiting for about three hours, I was informed that the manager had "better things to do" than interview me. FML
Today, I had a job interview, but I arrived kind of late. I was in so much of a hurry that I hit a woman walking by in the face with the door. I offered to drive her to the hospital. Turns out that she was going to be interviewing me. She didn't offer to reschedule. FML
Today, I had my first job interview in ages. I went in early, but instead of anyone telling me, they waited for the manager to come and get mad at me because it was supposed to be an online interview. I apologized and we went ahead with the interview, but she seemed disinterested and annoyed. I don’t think I got the job. FML
Today, I had an interview for my dream job. I spent all of last night preparing, researching the company, and making sure everything was perfect. My interview was for 8am. I woke up at 10:30 to an alarm that had not gone off. FML
Today, I had an interview scheduled for 10:05. When I got there, someone was talking to them, so I sat down to wait. Little did I know this wait would be 45 minutes. I got told to go home and that I'd be rescheduled. FML
Today, after going to bed at a decent time last night so I could get up early, I overslept. Not only that, I thought today was the day of my job interview, so I rushed to get ready and go. As I parked in the parking lot, I realized today was the day before said interview. FML
Today, I had what I thought would be an important (and formal) interview. Not only did I turn up completely overdressed, the man who was interviewing me arrived 30 minutes late. To top it all off, I was so distracted by his mysterious total lack of eyebrows that I forgot everything I had to say. FML
Today, I drove two and a half hours to a job interview. The interviewer never showed up or called. I sat in the hotel lobby waiting for an hour and a half. Even the hotel staff said they felt sorry for me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This has nothing to do with them being late...u should never fall asleep at an interview

YDI for not being well-rested before a job interview. YDI for thinking the interviewer was late: the person in power is NEVER late; they only test their subordinates/future employees. YDI for failing a discipline check. IT'S A TRAP! (b/c I'm sure this is the same nocanhaz)

Don't blame them. It is irresponsible falling asleep before an interview. Even though they were late, you still need them more than they need you. YDI

#35, how is it that you can spell "responsible", but you can't spell "you" or "should"?! And the correct phrase is "should have".

maybe, 35 isn't a native speaker of English

#38, I doubt that, and here's why. Most people whose native language isn't English tend to make very minor mistakes, as they are thinking in their own language and translating into English as they speak/type. They typically botch word order and idioms, if anything. Somone who freaking BUTCHERS the language the way #35 did can (99% of the time) only be a native speaker.

Think about this.... yesterday, my buddies decides to take me out because I was accepted into the police academy which started in 3 days. 1 joint and 9 beers later, they are randomly testing people on the first day of academy. I think there racist because I'm Spanish...... loser
