Today, I had an argument with my boss and tried to text a friend about it. I accidentally texted my boss instead. FML
Collection
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, my boss mistakenly drunk-texted me and was talking shit about me. FML
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
Today, after a badly misjudged hand signal, I accidentally hit my boss in the face instead of high-fiving her. FML
Today, I texted my boss, "I'm looking forward to doing you" instead of, "I'm looking forward to seeing you" thanks to a very unfortunate combination of my atrocious typing skills on a smartphone and an overzealous autocorrect function. FML
Today, I accidently sent that my butthole was on fire to a group chat with my boss. FML
Today, I read through my phone, hoping there weren't any drunk texts by me from the night before. Apparently I dirty texted everyone, even my boss. FML
Today, I texted my boss to say I’d be late because my train was delayed. Autocorrect changed “delayed” to “derailed.” My boss called immediately, panicked, asking if I was OK. I had to explain it was just a typo while standing safely on the platform. FML
Today, at work I got told off by my manager for texting while working. Enraged by this, I trash talked her to the new girl at work. The new girl, a.k.a. my manager's daughter. FML
Today, I was at work, when I got bored and started spinning around in my chair for a little fun. As I was spinning, I went to grab my phone. I missed and sent my phone flying, hitting my coworker in the face. My boss witnessed the whole thing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This is why you should check the name before you text anybody.

I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be an Fml if OP said something nice

It wouldn't be a FML if they didn't.

I understand OP! This happened to me too. I went to text my sister telling her how much I couldn't stand my step dad -who was sitting behind me- and I heard his phone go off and knew that shit had just gotten real. Awkward.

Some people truly are idiots....

i still think the content of the message should be in this FML, even though it is obviously something bad

Could you imagine an argument being anything but bad in this context? imagine, "Hey just got into an argument with my boss..." "Oh yeah? how'd it go?" "FANTASTIC! I might even get a promotion after this!" SAID NO-ONE. EVER.

That's why I have "x" in front of my parents, and coaches, and other important people in my contacts.

Well I'm sure it'll be very awkward going into work tomorrow.

Damn! That sounds awful.

Always check who your texting before you send a message. Hopefully it wasn't anything too bad, Op.

Here is a different thought how about calling them. That way if the boss answers just say wrong number. Since they dont immediately know what you are going to say, unlike with texts, it prevents this issue.

I am pretty sure OPs boss was close by, and plus she was at work. Bosses don't tend to let you make phone calls while working.

- or text...

You can make all the phone calls/ texts during your lunch.

Do you not check who you're texting before messaging someone, especially when you're talking about someone else?

This deserves a follow-up! I want to know what you said and what happened! FYL, though, OP. Hope you still have a job or maybe that you found a better one with a better boss.

You know how they say you shouldn't go to bed angry? I think the same applies to texting.

Very true, but sometimes you just need to vent to a friend. Once things have been vented you usually feel much better. However we all should probably check and double-check who it's going to though.

True. When angry we tend to act rashly, though. If you're really angry, you're less likely to think to make sure you're texting the right person.

That sounds like the opposite of a problem

OMG! I did the same. I was on convo with my niece as well as my boss. I wasn't feeling well and wanted to miss the employee meeting and my boss wasn't being understanding. My niece said it sounded like my boss was acting like a bitch. I responded with "yeah, she is acting like a bitch!" I hit send and it went to my boss. Now we laugh about it and remind each other about tone, but at that time I thought I'd be fired.
