Today, at work, I was forced to nod and smile as a pregnant, fifteen-year-old, brain-dead Jersey Shore wannabe cussed me out for being rude by using words from a "foreign language" during our conversation. I used the word "pretentious." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I assisted a customer at work. She was asking me all sorts of stupid questions and acting like an entitled, spoiled brat. When she left, since I had a mask on, I meant to mouth, "Stupid bitch" but I blurted it out loud. Everyone heard. I was fired. FML
Today, I learned the hard way how easy it is to get on my boss's bad side. We were talking about reality TV shows and I'd mentioned how much I despise Snooki, and how useless to the planet she is. Now I fear for my job. FML
Today, I got bitched out by some lady in a Walmart because I looked at her funny while she was on the phone, loudly bragging about "slapping the shit out of" her kids. FML
Today, at Walmart, a crazy old woman bitched me out for being pregnant. She kept following me around, calling me a stupid teen slut and saying she hoped my baby died so I could live a "normal life." I'm 26 and just very short. FML
Today, while at work, a customer refused to speak louder, despite me asking her to do it several times. As a result, I took her order incorrectly. The customer then finally decided to raise her voice, but only to yell at me about my poor listening skills. FML
Today, my English teacher kicked me out of class for being "rude and disruptive." In actuality, I had called her out for having blatantly used Google Translate for several example sentences, all of which sounded as if a semi-literate foreigner had constructed them. FML
Today, I was met with a flurry of complaints after my “disgusting” speech during my child’s career day at school. I’m a labor and delivery nurse, and my use of words like “fetus, breast, cesarean, etc.” was too much for the kids. I never even mentioned sex or genitals, and they’re in the 6th grade. FML
Today, my normally very modest and prissy mom came home, pissed off about something. I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say, and snapped at me to "fuck off." She then grounded me for "making" her use that kind of "vile language." FML
Today, I was working at Old Navy. A girl came up to me and did a bizarre dance. Not knowing how to react, I imitated her to be friendly with the customer. Then she stopped cold. Her friend stormed up to me and yelled, "You jerk! Why are you making fun of her? She has Tourette's, you know!" FML
Today, my boss bitched me out on the sales floor for a good 10 minutes, because I wasn't "smiling the right way" for our customers. FML

Is it terrible that I would have laughed at the 15 year old while she cussed me out? Im sorry, but her ignorance would have been hilarious... However, Im sorry you had to deal with that OP.

Referring to someone as "pretentious" when they are your customer is both unprofessional AND rude, so she has a point. Ydi

That's an English word... Not op's fault she's a ******* dumb ass... You deserve to be thumbed down for making a stupid comment and not reading the FML properly.

He may have now called the customer pretentious, it could have just come up when talking about something else. No where does it say that he called her that.

No one said he referred to the girl as pretentious. Just that he happened to use the word in conversation.

You assume a lot. How would someone use the word pretentious in a sentence with an girl of her description, and not be directing it towards her? And by calling a customer names, you would be unprofessional and rude. That's my point. Why don't you read the comment correctly?

She cussed op out, and he just nodded and smiled while dealing with this moron. Op never called her a name... Pretentious is not a bad word to describe a customer and op just thought this way about her and tried to be nice to her... Re-read the FML for the love of god... All he did was say a big word that the stupid girl took as offensive because op was trying to be as polite as possible and she didn't understand the meaning of the word pretentious... Get it now? Google pretentious if you don't get it now... Seriously. He did the best he could holding back his real thoughts about her.

How often do you use the word pretentious? It doesn't sound like op had the type of relationship with this customer where they'd be gossiping about someone else. Either way, referring to anyone as pretentious in front of a customer is unprofessional and rude. Pretentious is not a nice word to describe someone last I checked.

Wow, you sure seem to know a lot about op's thoughts and intentions...

She sounds like that bitch on the Jerry Springer Show. The one who speaks so terrible it's hard to understand her. I'm sure you've seen her videos on YouTube "I'VE SLEPT WITH OVER 300 MEN.." or some shit..
