Today, I got written up at work for making a customer feel bad. I made him feel bad by laughing uncontrollably at him when he asked if we sold real light sabers. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was upset over a recent break up. It showed while I was at work, and I made a customer sad just by looking blue. She complained to my manager. I got written up for being so depressed that I got a customer depressed too. FML
Today, my boss suspended me for laughing too hard at my desk and causing a big scene in front of our customers. I was laughing because he'd forwarded me a hilarious email. He was practically smirking as he handed me my official warning. FML
Today, I got written up by my line manager for being too friendly to customers. I work in retail, my job is to be friendly. FML
Today, I was working when I delivered the standard "Hello, how are you?" to a customer. He took the opportunity to tell me about his deceased wife, his estranged children, and his anal tearing. After a while, I tried to help someone else, and he complained to my manager. I was written up. FML
Today, at work, we had an extremely rude customer who started cussing at us, and my coworker started cussing back. I jumped on the register to quickly bring down the line, and apologized to everyone for the scene. A secret shopper was in the line and claimed that I was rude. I got written up. FML
Today, a customer asked me if we serve spaghetti. She then asked for a manager because I was giving her a weird look, laughing softly when telling her yes, and apparently making her feel stupid. My manager wrote me up. I work at the Old Spaghetti Factory. FML
Today, my boss bitched me out for a customer complaint. The complaint was me not laughing at the customer's joke of me asking for his ID and him saying no. I'm sorry, I've been getting this "joke" a least twice a day since I started working here two years ago. FML
Today, I got written up for insulting a customer last week, who then rang up to complain about my bad attitude. I was on vacation all last week. My boss doesn't believe me. FML
Today, my boss wrote me up for saying "pissed" in front of a client. This is the same boss who nearly pissed himself laughing when a client made an extremely off-color Holocaust joke a few weeks ago, in front of half the department. FML
Today, I got yelled at for providing horrible customer service, in a store I don't even work for. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think you should tell him that he has to make his own. That's the Jedi way!

You could've said, "Order some at StarWars . com but if you cannot find any on that site, sign up on the Forums there and ask fellow users where you could get some. They'll have fun answering you, and if you manage to find some, well, may the Force be with ya, buddy!"

starwars.com? that answer would have been great, lol because you would have had more amusement from the way that conversation developed and the customer would have thought u were really concerned and helpful. Gotta learn how to make fun of people in a tactful way without them knowing. Its so much better that way! lol

Jedis make their lightsabers themselves which is why they are all different, so you can't buy one.

There are more reasons than that as to why you cannot buy a ******* light saber.

...YDI FOR NOT HAVING REAL ONES! Barack Obama has some in the White House but you have to look all around and soon you'll found them. I heard only one person found them. But he never told where they were. That selfish pig...

Dick Cheney was Darth Vader. The reign of the Galactic Empire has come and gone.
