Today, I got a second notice from the mailman that my mail would not be delivered because of the pile of ice a plow had pushed in front of my mailbox. After getting the first notice, I'd spent an hour in the cold busting up the ice with a pick to clear a path. He put both notices in my mailbox. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it was very windy and snowy and the neighborhood's garbage cans were blowing everywhere. I had already brought mine in and I saw my neighbor's being blown away. Thinking I'd be nice, I went out to pick it up. Just before I could however, the wind smashed it into me and I fell on the ice. FML
Today, I broke, shoveled, and salted the ice covering my entire driveway. The size is roughly 8 cars' worth, and took me two hours of back-breaking effot to clear. I completely forgot that it was supposed to rain later today. FML
Today, I spent over an hour shovelling the walkway and driveway, snow blowing in my face and down my coat. When I was finally finished, a guy started going through the neighborhood plowing everyone's driveways for them. FML
Today, driving out of my neighbourhood, I encountered three snow plows heading towards me. I tried to turn around in a stranger's driveway but wasn't fast enough, and they left a wall 4-feet high of ice and snow, blocking me in. I rang the doorbell, borrowed their shovel and dug out their driveway. Its -32 with wind-chill. FML
Today, the company that was supposed to clear our apartment's parking lot never showed up. I almost got frostbite in my fingers trying to shovel someone's car out since my gloves got soaking wet. FML
Today, I got stuck in the snow in the middle of street. As I was just beginning to get myself unstuck, the snow plow came by and buried the front end of my car. FML
Today, as I was walking home, I felt my feet slip out from under me and I face-planted in the slushy, dirty, melting snow. I rolled over, completely soaked, and attempted to get up, thinking no one saw me. A mail-man then passed me without offering to help, and said, "I've seen worse." FML
Today, my elderly neighbor used his snowblower to send all of the fallen leaves in his yard into mine, which I'd raked earlier that morning. FML
Today, I came home to find a note on my door. I thought it was from my elderly disabled neighbors thanking me for cleaning off their snow covered car, since about 6 inches came down. It was from them, only it said I owed them for damages to their car. Damages that were already there. FML
Today, I got a notice on my apartment door that I'd received a package when no one was home, and it was left at the backdoor. I don't have a backdoor. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

leave a note inside your mailbox saying 'while you are putting another notice in my mailbox, could you also slip in my mail too?'

somebody must know a mailman... sticking up for em preeeetty hardcore. but yeah I know that they deliver to a ton of other people, plus getting out of their vehicle wastes time... but I mean,.. driving up to a mailbox, opening mailbox, sticking correct mail in mailbox, closing mailbox.... what's so difficult about that?

Are you blind, illiterate, or both? The mailman put the notices in the mailbox, so it's obviously accessible. The mailman sounds like a lazy pieve of shit. He isn't risking his life, unless OP puts a rabid chihuahua in the mailbox.

but if the chihuahua ISNT rabid... it's ok right?? otherwise I miiiight need to go take something out of my mailbox.....
FYLDeep 26
I'm the one who put the rabid chihuahua in there actually.

#12 don't flatter urself

#12 I went and complained to the post master because my mailman continuously delivered all my mail to my neighbor (who always threw my mail away instead of walking over the couple of yards and giving it to me). Not only was my mailman in major trouble with the post master but my mail is not being delivered to my neighbor anymore
