Today, I had a meeting with the CEO about a promising job with good pay and benefits. Upon meeting, we immediately recognized each other. He was someone I used to make fun of in school all the time. He responded by refusing to interview me and had security throw me out by force. Karma bites. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, the CEO of my company wanted to meet with me. I was excited until I found out she just wanted to bitch me out and personally fire me. Later on, I found out my boss had totally shafted me and blamed the failure of a big project on me instead of admitting it was all his fault. FML
Today, I went in for an interview at my dream job. When I walked in, I got a dirty look from the front desk secretary. Turns out, the guy interviewing me was from a dating website I'm on. I'd rejected him and told him to get a life. FML
Today, I was at a big meeting at work. The CEO was reaming the hell out of us for our recent poor profits, when I accidentally let rip a vile fart. I was then subjected to a 10 minute tirade of abuse for "trying to be a funny man", and told that whatever small chance I had for a promotion is now gone. FML
Today, at work, I accidentally walked into a meeting at which the whole company was there but me. The meeting was about how they could legally fire me while paying as little severance as possible. I'm the CEO and the founder of the company. FML
Today, I walked out of a job interview feeling confident because I'd really hit it off with the interviewer. He called me an hour later to tell me that I didn't get the job, since he was afraid we'd "get along too well and never get any work done." FML
Today, during work hours, I took time off and discreetly went for an interview for a prospective job at our rival company. As soon as I reached the place, I bumped into my current boss. FML
Today, I was getting lunch at a fast food restaurant. My boss was in front of me, and in order to get on his good side I offered to pay. Instead, I got fired because I guess my boss assumed I was making fun of his salary, which I knew nothing about. FML
Today, I went to see a house for rent. The owner ended up being a person whom I denied renting to a long time ago, because I thought she was sketchy looking. Apparently she’s the CEO of a company now. She definitely recognized me and kicked me off the premises. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

I think it was Bill Gates who said "Be nice to nerds, there's a pretty good chance you'll end up working for one." You just learned the hard way the Bill spoke the truth. As they say, payback is a bitch.

If one more FML comes through with "karma" in it I am not commenting for a month.

I wish I could do the same. I hate "karma" FMLs.

They could have common names. I know several people that had the same last name and then several people that had the same first name. I don't think it's that strange for more than one person to have the same first *and* last name.

I can't believe people are actually saying "YDI". Who cares if he bullied him? They were children. That CEO is pretty pathetic.

Kids can be cruel. And the OP didn't say they were children. He didn't imply at what age this occurred and bullies have been known for doing some rather traumatic things to their victims.

you have that right, bullies can do some horrible and twisted shit. I got bullied with friggin hachets and if I ever see those ***** again I'm drawing blood. Not for revenge, but for justice

If I were the CEO, I would have hired the OP on the spot. Then I could make his life hell :D

Don't worry. As the other FML's have proven, nerds never really amount to anything.

Exactly # 56 at some point you have to just let go of school age drama but sadly some people never do.

That CEO needs to grow up. Kids do stupid things without realizing it.

Agreed. Even if wanted revenge, there are sweeter ways of doing it... Like employing him and then using the CEO power to torment him (by transfers/pay cuts/lay offs). Now that wud take it to a whole new level. :P

Not really. In this corporate world, if the guy hires him, he's subject to labor laws and human resource policies and may not be able to do that once the OP is hired. Additionally, actually getting someone hired costs a considerable amount of money in training, resources, benefits filing, paperwork, and more. It's not worth it from a bottom-line standpoint to hire them just to give them hell. Better to end it immediately and clearly, although having security toss him out seems a little extreme. (Also, I agree that anyone who says FYL to this has never been bullied.)

You SERIOUSLY deserved this one... revenge!
