Today, I discovered that I once again forgot my credit card in the vending machine at work. This is the second time in a week that this happened, and now 6 coworkers have bought drinks with my card since I lost it. I have no way of making it back to work for a week. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I hid my credit card from myself so I wouldn't use it. Now I can't find it. FML
Today, I went to the store to buy some groceries. Several hours later I realize that I can't find my wallet. After looking all over my house and then the store parking lot, I had my credit cards cancelled. On the drive home, I feel something under me. It was my wallet. FML
Today, I realized I'd lost my wallet when paying for groceries. I had to put all the items back and leave the store feeling so embarrassed in front of everyone. FML
Today, I went to have a drink with my friend. On the way I withdrew 20 bucks and when I arrived at the bar I realised I had taken my credit card but not the banknote. FML
Today, my Visa card randomly stopped working. I have no other way of getting money or paying for anything. I was going to buy next week's food tomorrow, but I guess I'll just starve instead. FML
Today, I finally decided to go Christmas shopping. It's only once I arrived that I realized that I had forgotten my wallet. FML
Today, I went to the grocery store, but once I'd filled my cart, I realized that I'd forgotten my wallet, and because I'm not the sort of animal who just dumps stuff in random aisles, I had to awkwardly put all my items back on their shelves. FML
Today, I went to a coffee shop with the change I got back after buying a ball. After having waited in line for around twenty minutes, I was told that only credit cards were allowed. I'd left my wallet in my car because I thought I didn't need it. FML
Today, I received my replacement debit card in the mail after losing my previous one. I've already lost my new one. FML
Today, I realized my wallet was missing right as I went to pay for my groceries. I frantically searched the store, retraced my steps, and finally found it. It was inside a freezer, where I'd apparently placed it in when I was grabbing ice cream five minutes earlier. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

First time it happened. You made a mistake. Second time it happened you deserve it.

why can't you have someone at work put your credit card away for you? Using your credit card to buy stuff just because you left it sitting in the vending machine is still illegal. in a sense, it is credit card theft.

also, I'm from Nova Scotia, I thought people in Halifax was smarter than that. You should have canceled the card right away. Ydi

Have the credit card company put a. Temporary hold on the card. Problem solved.

Taxi, bus, Uber, lyft, flying cars driven by Ron Weasley, there’s a way to get to work.

I get the feeling that you're the kind of person that shouldn't have a credit card. It might be a little inconvenient to pay in cash but much less inconvenient than having other people spend a ton of money at your expenses. You're lucky they only bought drinks with it!

Can't you put a temporary stop on your card via online banking? I have that option with my bank

Cancel the card ASAP!

Cancel the card immediately and stop payment on those sodas. Gather all your coworkers and hand them the bill along with the stop payment fees for each of those sodas!
