Today, at work, a table of girls complained to the manager about me. The complaint? "He's not hot enough to work here. We want a sexy server." The manager agreed with them and sent me home. I might lose my job because of a table of shallow women. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, at my job as a cocktail server in a bar, a group of good looking ladies sat in my section. As I was finishing up with the table next to them I overheard one of them saying, "I hope we don't get that guy, I want a sexy waiter tonight." FML
Today, I realized I might lose my job because some asshole customer complained about me to my district manager. His complaint? Girls can't work at video game stores. My DM agreed. FML
Today, I got fired from my new waitress job after 2 shifts. They said I wasn't experienced enough to handle the fast pace. I thought I'd been doing well so I asked my friend who works there what really happened. Apparently not showing my boobs enough at a family place was grounds for dismissal. FML
Today, I found out that the reason I'm working as a kitchen staff instead of out on the floor of the café is because the boss does not think I'm attractive enough. My boss is my brother. FML
Today, my boss told me I got my new job because she rejected candidates that seemed "too confident" or "too pretty." 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, I got fired from my job at a weight-loss center because I was too skinny, and apparently it's too depressing for the customers to handle. FML
Today, I had an interview to be a waitress. Afterwards, I had food in the restaurant, which is where I overheard my interviewer tell the manager he wasn’t going to bother hiring “that girl I just interviewed” because "her face is nasty and she’ll put the customers off their food." FML
Today, I started my new job. Less than one hour into the day, my boss told me that the reason he hired me was that I was the least attractive of everyone he interviewed, so I'd be less likely to cause a distraction. FML
Today, at work, I overheard two of my coworkers talking about how "creepy" and "ugly" I am, and that I look like I'd be the kind of guy to sneak into someone's house and "have my way" with them. Boy, did that sure help with my self-esteem issues. I'm going to go and report them, but still. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Fun fact: A court in Manhattan ruled that firing someone for their attravtiveness is legal. Any legal action here would almost certainly end in the employer's favor. Vote for pro worker politicians and this shit stops, people.

As long as you're clean, and don't look like a mini Hagrid, what does it matter? If your boss fires, you, he/she is just as pathetic as those women, and then you go all Milton Waddams on them.

They want a sexy server? What do they think this is, a strip club?

I’d think the shitty tips would tell you to move on.

I that had been a table of guys complaining about an ugly female server this page would be overrun with comments from the SJWs! Well where are all you SJWs when men are discriminated against?

I assume you aren't working at a super-trendy restaurant where the servers are supposed to be hot and the food is supposed to be lousy. I seriously hope these girls get a job where the guys complain about their appearance and they are sent home for not being hot enough. It would be sweet karma. And I hope you find a better-paying job at a restaurant or bar where they don't care about your appearance.

That kind of crap pisses me off. Depending on where you live, that's illegal as hell. But sadly, some states, like Kansas, are states that allow employers to fire at will for no reason whatsoever.

it sucks that you may lose your job over something so shallow. But, it might be just as easy to take the high road and find another job where the boss is also not a douche. if he or she is willing to fire you over something so stupid, they're not worth working for.

Sounds like the problem is the manager not the customers. The customers are always shitty. It's a shitty boss that legitimises their pettiness.

pretty sure absolutely no one believes this
