Today, I had a major falling out with my best friend. Angry, I sent a short text message to him explaining how I felt. I soon noticed I'd accidentally texted "I'm going to fucking kill you, asshole." to my boss instead. I'm still waiting on a reply. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I accidentally sent a text message meant for my best friend to my boss. The text was about how much I hated my job and my boss's constant micromanagement. FML
Today, I had an argument with my boss and tried to text a friend about it. I accidentally texted my boss instead. FML
Today, my boss mistakenly drunk-texted me and was talking shit about me. FML
Today, I ranted via text to my best friend about how annoying our coworker Stephanie is. I hit send, only to realize I had sent it to… the Stephanie in question. My backup plan? Following up with, "Just kidding! It’s for a short story I’m writing.” She replied, “I look forward to reading it.” FML
Today, I had the cops called on me because I accidentally texted, "I'm going to kill you and use your head as a hood ornament" to my ex-fiancé, instead of my best friend. I only texted that because he got a better grade on an exam than me. Now I have a court date. FML
Today, after a very harsh argument from my mother about her not seeing her grandchild enough, I decided to vent out my rage in a text to my friend. It wasn't until after I sent the message, that yes, I sent that message to my mom FML
Today, I got a heads-up that my boss suffered a death in the family, but was coming into work anyway. I thought he'd be depressed, but it seems he deals with grief with anger instead. I found that out when he yelled at me, threatening to rip my spine out my ass over a typo I made in a report. FML
Today, I was sending screenshots to my best friend about a guy who'd screwed me over. I sent the screenshots to him instead. FML
Today, I was venting to a friend over Whatsapp about my annoying coworker when I realised I'd sent it to said coworker (always check which chat you are in while typing). I'd said, "I’m convinced Brenda is either possessed or just doesn't know how to be a normal human." I deleted it, but it was too late, as she replied with a smiley emoji and, “Can I help with anything, asshole?” FML
Today, at work, I stepped out for a few minutes to use the bathroom. Shortly after returning, I found out the hard way that one of my coworkers had used my computer to send a profanity-filled email to our boss, calling him an asshole and telling him to go fuck himself. I'm now jobless. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

>I sent a short text message to him explaining how I felt >"I'm going to f*cking kill you, asshole." Someone can't communicate for shit. Also, someone is dexterity/functionally-impaired for such a slip-up between "best friend" and boss.

Why are you waiting for a response. You should be sending "Woops, sorry, that was meant for a friend of mine" and if your boss questions it, you should explain that it was an inside joke, so that your boss doesn't think you have anger issues.

Lie to your boss. Immediately. Don't just tell him or her that the text was meant for a friend; I'd recommend saying it was sent BY a friend, either by mistake or as a prank. In the future don't risk a text like that. And, ya know, consider whether you *do* have anger issues.

Is it really so hard to write to him a second later "Sorry *name*, I meant to send that to a friend of mine"?

OP you're an asshole. Grow up and learn how to deal with people in a mature manner. I hope your boss reprimands or even fires you because of your obvious immaturity and anger issues. This is a YDI to the nth degree!

1. Don't threaten over text/e-mail ect. That's kinda a crime, don't leave proof. 2. Text your boss like omg, sorry, I didn't mean to send that to you...

YDI for having your boss' cell number in your personal phone. Use their land line for business needs, NOT a private cell number. This simple rule of thumb would prevent things like this from happening. It would also make it much harder to drunk dial the boss at 2 in the morning. Any company that requires two way communication via cell phone should provide you and the boss with mobile phones for business. This way, you don't pay for the minutes accrued by carrying out your work duties. You would be unlikely to use it for personal needs, thus making these mistakes more difficult to make. I just don't see any legitimate reason to have your boss' cell number in your personal phone.
