Today, it was a really slow day at work. One thing lead to another, and soon enough we were all taking turns shoving each other across the office on a swivel chair. Our boss came in during my turn, and I got singled out for a verbal warning. Everyone else got off with a disapproving glare. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was awkwardly taking a dump at work, when a coworker in another stall started talking shit to me about our boss. I grunted and agreed, hoping he'd shut up and leave me alone. That's when a third guy sarcastically chimed in with insults from a third stall. It was our boss. FML
Today, a random customer at work admonished my coworker for being on her phone. During our lunch break. As he walked away, my coworker muttered, "What the fuck is his problem?" I nodded in agreement. He heard her and saw me nodding. As did our boss. Time to get written up. FML
Today, at work I was talking to a co-worker about what a slacker my manager was, and how all she did was stand around and talk. She was standing behind me the whole time. I now have sore nuts due to a direct hit from a broom handle. FML
Today, I watched a manager and a co-worker sit underneath a table in our store all day as I got yelled at for not working hard enough. I was the only one actually working. FML
Today, I was on my way to work and someone cut me off. I then switched lanes and sped past the person as I flipped them off. What I didn't notice was that the person that cut me off was my boss. He's been shooting me dirty looks from across the room all morning. FML
Today, my boss suspended me for laughing too hard at my desk and causing a big scene in front of our customers. I was laughing because he'd forwarded me a hilarious email. He was practically smirking as he handed me my official warning. FML
Today, my boss threatened to write me up, after I made a slightly rude joke about a coworker everyone hates. A while later, a colleague told me the same joke. Turns out my boss had gone around telling it to everyone else and taking all the credit. 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, my lazy bastard of a co-worker punched me straight in the jaw because he didn't get the promotion I did. Being his new manager, I fired him. A few hours later, I was fired for "abusing" my power. FML
Today, my coworkers were bored. To solve this, they taped me to a chair and tried tickling me to death. My boss joined in. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"One thing lead to another," ... I was expecting something sexual after that and facepalmed.

I was expecting an FML about hooking up with coworkers when I first read this...

I mean it's just a verbal warning. No serious consequences so brush it off and laugh! Let's be real, if it was one of your coworkers that got caught, you would've done the same thing they did.

While I do realize the importance of getting actual work done, I think bosses need to lighten up and let the employees have some fun every now and then.

I agree! As a mgr at a fast food place, I instigated a food fight in the parking lot to blow off steam.

I heard the Google headquarters has a huge slide by the elevators and the employees are encouraged to take sensory breaks to do things like play football or go outside and take a walk to recharge.

Yes! My first job was at McDonalds and one of our managers was fun like you! We need more managers like you!

Even now, working in the IT world, I think it's important to let loose once in awhile to relieve stress.

The person who gets caught doing it always takes the most amount of heat, while the rest get off easy. Life is hard. FYL.

Similar thing happened to me except we team raced through the isles of the store I work at while in shopping carts during a snow storm.
