Today, I found out that I don't have to work tomorrow. Normally I would be thrilled to hear this, but not from the 6 o'clock news, doing a piece on my work's rat infestation and indefinite shut down. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had my first day off in weeks. I was excited about getting to sleep in, until my boss called me at 6:30 in the morning to remind me I didn't have to come into work. Thanks. FML
Today, I was told not to show up for work, after I showed up for work. FML
Today, I found out I'm getting laid off. However, they're keeping my coworker who rarely shows up and sleeps all the time when he's there. FML
Today, it was supposed to be payday. Instead, it was the day I found out that, for two weeks, I have been volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, and am not actually employed by a construction company. FML
Today, I was let go from my job for not being able to come into work early. FML
Today, I got a call from my manager saying that I won't need to work this weekend. Too bad I already cancelled a family vacation because he threatened to fire me if I didn't work this weekend. FML
Today, I showed up to work at 6am, only to find out the schedule was changed. I wasn't actually supposed to be there until 9:15. My boss never told me this. I didn't get to go home either, he just said, "Oh well. Get to work." FML
Today, I really didn't want to go to work. Still, I showed up for work early on the busiest night of the week and stayed back until past 10 p.m. Exhausted, I went to sign off the roster when I realised that, in fact, I was not rostered on for today at all. I'm on tomorrow, though. FML
Today, exactly 19 seconds after I logged on, my boss Zoom-called me to let me know 3 people are out sick, probably until Monday, so if I wouldn’t mind doing their work as well so we don’t fall behind, within working hours, no overtime available. He wasn’t happy when I told him no. FML
Today, despite the schedule saying I was off, I found out I’m supposed to be working because my boss changed the schedule without my knowledge. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Or OP could round up the rats and somehow train them to make food, the restaurant would be called little critters.

Critter fritter, the new dine in dinner game! Did a critter make you meal? Is it a critter? No one knows! Call know for reservations.

It would be pretty ironic if the exterminator's building was infested with rats, haha.

I'm just hoping it wasn't some type of restaurant. Cause that would be really disgusting!

Should of known those weren't chocolate fruity pebbles....

Um, they are the chocolate jimmies that you sprinkle on your ice cream. Flies are responsible for chocolate chips and raisins in cookies. Just an FYI :-)

That's pretty slack of your workplace to not tell you - but if it was 'infested' shouldn't you have noticed?

Strange though how staff isnt made aware of those things.. If its a reason to shut a place down and media getting involved :/?
