Today, I had to quickly back out of a Skype call between me and three coworkers because my fiancée came home from work in tears. When things had calmed down, I re-entered the call to find them unaware I had returned, saying how glad they were I had left because they all secretly despise me. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went on the road for work for the first time in a very long time. I was enjoying lunch with coworkers when my phone got bombarded with calls and texts. Turns out my wife and my mother had gotten into a fight within two hours of me being away. FML
Today, I told my wife I had a huge Zoom interview and could not be disturbed under any circumstances. Nevertheless, she called her mom, got into a screaming argument the interviewer could clearly hear, then came into my office to cry on my shoulder. She doesn't understand why I'm furious with her. FML
Today, I was hanging out with friends when my ex called me, but I ignored the call because I don’t want drama. About five minutes later she shows up and starts yelling at me on how I’m so worthless and useless. She left almost immediately after this, but when I went home she was talking to my fiancée. Like, WTF? FML
Today, some guy I’ve been talking to showed up at my house while I was on video call with my boyfriend. I had to confess to a stupid situation I had no business being in. FML
Today, I accidentally said, "Bye, love you," to a co-worker as I clocked out. Before I made it home, I had six missed calls and a long text from my co-worker professing her love to me. FML
Today, I blurted out “Love you, bye!” at the end of a professional phone call. There was a long pause before he replied, “Uh… thank you for your help?” My coworkers heard everything. I'm now scared of my work phone ringing. FML
Today, I was at work when my ex and his girlfriend came in. She went on to claim that I was excited when I saw him… but I was actually happy because my shift was ending in 5 minutes. FML
Today, I had a phone call from a company I was applying to. It was going really well, until the call ended. Now since I'm so used to calling my girlfriend, I ended the call with, "Love you, bye." And if things couldn't get any worse, I started swearing to myself. The recruitment officer heard me. I forgot to hang up. FML
Today, I ignored my wife's phone calls at work, since all she ever wants to do is complain or talk about chores and projects. An hour later, security called my desk. She'd shown up at work to bitch me out for ignoring her. Now I'm the laughing stock of my workplace. FML
Today, my girlfriend came to my workplace to tell me she was breaking up with me. My boss, who was passing by, fired me for "chatting with friends" during work hours. FML

I can't stand that kind of two faced bullshit. I'm sorry OP, but in the end know that you're a better person by staying out of that hateful gossip.

Sometimes it's good to hear though it would better if it was done upfront. People don't say what needs to be said a lot of times to spare other people's feelings. A good example, Pardon me ma'am, but you should shave the moustache... and shower

How did you re-enter without them noticing? I thought the call had to be answered by someone in the actual call?

If it's a group call you can leave or join whenever you like unless you're the call host.

I don't know...usually calls like that make a little noise when someone joins. It's possible they knew you were back and were just ******* with you.

I was thinking the same thing and that noise is pretty obvious

My group skype calls never makes a noise when someone rejoins. We are all usually surprised when the person just starts talking

Well, if you haven't necessarily done anything to them directly for them to despise you there could be jealousy and envy towards YOU. Competition and feeling threatened in the workplace is a very real thing. And, if they don't like you who cares since you already love yourself. Let the Haters add more fuel to your fire !!

They are all cowards! The least they could do was say to your face what acts of yours tick them off. Talking about you behind your back doesn't help change you or make you better. Now you know how they really feel. Try to be the best you and they will come to appreciate you too.
