Today, after having not used my laptop since January because I thought it was broken, I found out that the key lock has been on the whole time. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I broke my key unlocking my dorm room. When I pushed the door open in frustration, the door opened with no problem. Turns out it was unlocked. FML
Today, I was logging into my work computer. My account became locked due to the many failed attempts at typing my password. Thinking I was alone, I said, “Fuck this shit” while dragging the keyboard off my desk. Turns out my supervisor was in the other room. I'd forgotten I'd changed my password the other day. FML
Today, I locked my keys in my car. I had a spare key in my wallet, that I also left in the car. FML
Today, I locked my keys in the car while the car was running because I got out to get the parking ticket attached to my windshield. FML
Today, I was fed up with things being taken from my room so I installed a key-locking handle on my door. I installed everything but the door knobs, and because I was worried that I would put the two of them on backwards, I closed the door to check. I'm now locked in my room. FML
Today, I was playing with my phone and turned it on lock mode. I changed my lock code a few months ago, so that no one would be able to guess it. Turns out I can't guess it either. FML
Today, whilst heading out the door to go to work, my lanyard got caught on the doorknob inside, and I watched my keys swing back inside as the door closed behind me. It was locked. FML
Today, I was locked out of my house. After hours of trying to break the door, I found out I accidentally left a window open. The door, however, still needs to be replaced. FML
Today, after months of wondering what a mysterious key I found in an old kitchen drawer unlocked, I finally discovered it fit the lock on a storage unit. I opened it and found a box containing three other keys I had also forgotten about. FML
Today, I walked into pawn shop and found a nice laptop which I inspected after I thought I lost mine months ago. Turns out my ex pawned it after having it at her place all this time. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Damn, I feel OP's pain. It's like the time where you keep typing in your password and it's not working. Then you get all scared that you have been hacked but your keyboard was just on caps lock.

After the first time, it should be common sense. There's room for error, once, since we're "only human". Every other time after just makes you incompetent.

LMAO I've done that before after the first three tries I got pissed and gave up... My computer doesn't show you whether it's on caps lock or not lol @ 38 do you feel better about yourself when you down grade people?

I don't put people down, people put themselves down. I just notice it because everything is worth noticing (: It makes no difference with people who "do good." They get the necessary adulation in which they deserve. While people who make mistakes and don't bother to fix it become ignorant and less needed in today's society. Again, if you fail to fix your mistake, how far up the totem pole do you really think you'll get.

You know something? When you repeatedly put people down or as you say "put themselves down" your just making yourself look bad not them...

You must be confused. Let try explaining it once again to you since you've failed, yet again, to grasp a concept. It's not my fault for your mistakes. Once is fine, sure. you learn, get over it. When you do it repeatedly, you begin showing signs of your own incompetence, not mine. So as you're reading this, do yourself a favor and reply back. And please, do yourself another favor and learn how to use a computer. It's never the computers fault (unless manufactured improperly), it's the users fault for not being smart enough to use a computer.

Well 91/97 I really don't want to get too far *up* the totem pole. You see that phrase interpreted completely wrong, because the *lower* on the totem pole you were the higher you were held in society. Just thought I'd let you in on some information that may come in handy one day haha. :)

Do yourself a favor. Never apply for a job in a private company. Instead search for Federal jobs. There you have plenty of chances.
