Today, I was working my job at Sephora when I overheard two women talking. One of them asked her friend, "Is being pretty a requirement to work here?" Her friend turned to see me, turned back to her friend and said, "I guess not." FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I asked my manager if wearing makeup was a requirement for the job. She told me, "Not if you're naturally pretty... So for you, yes". FML
Today, my boss told me I got my new job because she rejected candidates that seemed "too confident" or "too pretty." FML
Today, at the store, I didn't hear the cashier when she asked if I had a loyalty card. She took one look at my naturally bitchy-looking face and muttered "It's my JOB to ask, jeez." FML
Today, a shopper approached me at Target and said, "So are you just gonna stand there to look pretty and do nothing around here?" I ignored his comment, until he got so upset that he wanted to speak to my manager. It would have been understandable if I actually worked there. FML
Today, I was walking to work and saw three guys sitting at a table outside. One of the guys looks at me and says to his friends, "That's the girl that works at the grocery store. She replaced the hot chick." The other two guys glared at me. FML
Today, my boss commented on the fact that I don't usually wear makeup, then told me it would be much appreciated if I'd change that. FML
Today, I was fixing my makeup in the back room of the office when my boss walked in. He looked kind of annoyed so I jokingly said, "Don't you want your secretary to look good?" He said, "If I did, I wouldn't have hired you." FML
Today, I was working my job checking people in at the gym. A sweaty, chubby woman came up to me complaining about how our staff seems so fit. I replied, "We like to hire people who have bodies that motivate our clients!" She gave a blank stare, then said, "So how did you get the job?" FML
Today, I discovered everyone at work refers to me as 'The Man-Lady'. I work in a supermarket's beauty department. FML
Today, as I worked as a cashier, two girls came up laughing. I smiled as I rang them up, asking what had made them laugh so hard. One looked me dead in the face and said, "You." They then both walked away, laughing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well.. It isn't... girls at Sephora look normal and accessible, girls at MAC look incredible and intimidating.

It is sad I know this to be true...

It's sad you think that's an example of wit. And really, I guess you're really not saying Mac is better, you were saying Sephora was.

What at all came across as witty from that statement? Or even at attempt at wit? My girlfriend drags me to the shops. What #1 said is true from my experience. Nothing was said about the make-up itself, but the women that work there. But thanks for sticking it to me?

I know it wasn't supposed to be witty. And that was in response to #1.

Sorry but not all MAC girls look good! Ojectivelly: Yes, some are hot/talented, but some look like "drag queens" with all that makeup. Opps, sorry (did I say that?). hehehe.... too much wine ;) OP: ughhh... Some women, sighhh..... tisk, tisk. Catty much?? U realize they were putting u down to make them feel better right??? Toxic Bitches. Stay away. Be grounded in U. U were hired for a reason ;)

I dunno, the Sephora and MAC girls in my city are all pretty normal looking. Fat, skinny, dark, light, unfortunate skin texture, beautiful skin, every combination of possible features.... but they know how to work the makeup, and they're just great people usually.

at least you can think that people like them will be stuck working there forever.... and you will go far in life. those bitches will be hated because of their attitude. in the long run people mostly care about personality. :D

Neither is knowing the difference between to, too, and two. :P

The horrible use of "to"! IT BURNS!!!

Thanks, Didi.
Intoxicunt 6
Yes, thank you, FML god.
redbluegreen 41
No, more like just 'God', if you asked me. Or Antonio Banderas.
Intoxicunt 6
Or Mel Gibson. But 'God' works too. Or Double D. If he's god, he sees everything. .... This just got awkward...
redbluegreen 41
This is awkward, but I like it. ;D God needs to make more appearances, yeah? Especially ones not followed by a frowny face. The French wink too much. It makes me think they're keeping dirty secrets. And they're not necessarily about bacon.
Intoxicunt 6
Of course they're keeping dirty secrets. If they told you all the things they do/think about, especially those that DO involve bacon, you would implode. Or ******. I agree. God needs to make more appearances. Mark his territory. Insist on having people build shrines to him. Stuff like that!
redbluegreen 41
Bacon orgasms. Not like we haven't heard that story before. FML Gods, wherefore art thou?
Intoxicunt 6
Oh my god, you heard about it!? I thought it was my secret! Butts, living in other time zones. Pfffft. Maybe if we took our clothes off, I would enjoy this more. I mean, they would come quicker. Go ahead. You first.
redbluegreen 41
'They would come quicker.' My dear Savannah, really? And who is to say I am not already naked? (-:,'
Intoxicunt 6
Ahahaha. Ok, let's get naked but make sure they don't come too quick. Pics or you're not?

to #1: so i guess there really is a difference b/w dumb and dumber.

Some places will only hire modelesque girls whereas other places chose real-looking women that a customer can relate to. I'm not saying MAC is better, I'm just saying that's their approach. Oh and you displayed some serious wit there with your play on words.. Like the movie, right? like, oh em gee, you're so smart! *giggle* Get bent.

not only are you ugly, your illiterate too. its TWO women, not to women
Intoxicunt 6
It's "YOU'RE", not "your". I feel like taking a red pen to your comment.

umm you dont know that shes ugly so dont judge when you dont even know what she looks like. that girl was probably ugly who said it.

You've got to love it when people make grammer mistakes in the very sentence they correct another's grammer. (intentional =P)
animejen1988 9
Haha, nice. I'm glad that was intentional.

Also, the word it it's, not its.
Intoxicunt 6
The word is "is", not "it". >_>

Illiteracy seems to be something you & the OP have in common. It's cute that you corrected her use of "two/to" when you yourself apparently are not privy to the "your/you're" rule. Perhaps you should do some research before insulting others, lest you make yourself out to look like a huge douche.
