Today, I got fired from my job as a seafood manager because an entire wedding group came in and started yelling at me, saying the shrimp was horrible and I ruined their wedding. They showed me the leftovers; they never cooked them. They fed raw shrimp at a wedding dinner party. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after 8 months of being belittled and treated like trash at my job as a prep cook in a high-end kitchen, I stood up for myself to the line cooks. Not only did everyone laugh at me, I got fired for causing a scene during service and insubordination. FML
Today, I was fired from my job as a waitress, all because someone complained there was too much seasoning in their food. As I said, I'm a waitress. This happened the same week I was hired. FML
Today, I was verbally abused by a customer because her entrée was too fishy. I'm not the chef, just the waiter, and I work at a fish grill. FML
Today, I got food poisoning from my wedding food. FML
Today, I was fired from the restaurant I work at because I missed my shift. I missed it because I was in the hospital for food poisoning from the meal I ate at work last night. FML
Today, I was fired from my catering job for pointing out the unsafe food conditions. I'm studying food safety in college. FML
Today, I was preparing a customer's meal in my restaurant's kitchen, when I choked on my own saliva and went into a coughing fit. The head chef, who's always hated my guts, accused me of trying to hock a loogie into the meal and fired me on the spot. FML
Today, my family went out to dinner at a seafood restaurant. While we were eating our food, my grandma demanded to see the manager, and loudly complained that her fish was "too fishy". FML
Today, I went on a blind date with a guy at a seafood restaurant. I explained to him that I am deathly allergic to shrimp. When the waiter took my order, he interrupted me and said, “She’ll have the shrimp," while looking me dead in the eye. FML
Today, at my prestigious sous chef job, I was preparing to plate up expensive entrees for a function of 150 people. After arriving to work 2 hours early to finalize finishing touches, they call the restaurant 5 minutes before their booking stating, 'We can't be bothered anymore, sorry.' FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A special kind of stupid that will breed and further contaminate the gene pool.

Did they not cook them because the shrimp were bad quality in the first place? I've bought bad seafood before and returned it uncooked. Just trying to figure out how you're responsible for this that your boss fired you?

It specifically says leftovers, so it is safe to assume that they ate them raw instead of returning them immediately. Morons like these are the reason that if I ever became a politician, I'd put forth policies where demonstratively stupid people would have 'DUMBASS' tattooed on their foreheads, never be given positions of authority, and their genitals removed to prevent their breeding.

Like the Red Lobster commercial, you Sea Food Differently -- as a career-ender. I don't get how you lose your job if you were supplying raw food and someone else was supposed to cook it. Maybe you already had two strikes against you and this is all your boss needed to can you?

You are stupid. The place where OP worked only supplies food they don't cook it.

If the bride and groom missed that one, they truly deserve each other. Anyone else thinking they cooked and enjoyed everything but the so called raw leftovers so they could complain and get the cost of the wedding down?

ok so i'm going to assume that you worked in some kind of seafood wholesale place. If so, then there would be other fresh seafood on ice in the refrigerated display case, yes? so how the hell did they not make the connection that the shrimp were raw? Seems to be not one active brain cell in the entire wedding party!!!
