Today, I had my driver's permit in an envelope to keep it safe and a letter to mail out. I drove away from the post office with the letter in my hand. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, on the way to work, I pulled over at a postbox to post a letter. I walked up to the box with the letter in one hand, car key in the other. Guess which one I posted. FML
Today, I bought stamps to send a letter. For some unknown reason, instead of putting the stamp on the letter, I posted the letter and the stamp booklet into the postbox. FML
Today, I rushed to the post office to mail an important document for the study abroad program that I'd applied for, which was due in a few days. Just as the envelope slipped out of my hand and into the mail box, I caught a glimpse of the upper right corner where there was supposed to be a stamp. FML
Today, I learned that when I got my driver's permit, I agreed to be the designated driver for my family. FML
Today, I failed to get my driver's licence. My father was the instructor. FML
Today I was very excited to go to the post office to claim a parcel. I didn't know what it could be, so I assumed it was a gift. It turned out to be a speeding ticket. FML
Today, I finally went to the DMV to replace my lost license. After waiting for almost two hours, I casually rummaged through my purse. Something strange inside the lining caught my eye. It was my license. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket in the mail. I don't have a car. FML
Today, I received a traffic ticket by mail, presumably for speeding. Not a big deal, if my car hadn't been totalled three months ago. My driver's license is expired, too. FML
Today, I passed my driver's test. My instructor took the learner signs off his car and let me drive back to my place. I guess he didn't bet on me crashing the car just a few blocks from the test center. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Don't worry too much OP, there's a hobo walking around wondering what to do with a credit card he was given.

It always pays to double check before dropping it in the box. However you can go into the postoffice and they can have an employee get it back for you.

Dang sorry to hear that OP. Hopefully they mail it back to you. How come you didn't double check though?

Could you not contact the post office and explain the situation? Hope it gets sorted OP :(

It could be worse, you could have been pulled over afterwards, try explaining that one to a police officer.

It could be even worse, you could have put the button the gypsy cursed you with into that envelope and shipped the one with your fiance's rare coin...oh wait that's the plot of "Drag Me to Hell"

The idea was to keep it safe. How ironic.

Also figuring out how to get the pin number.

Actually you don't need a pin number for credit, debit you do.
momof3honeybee 13
Thats true.

#14, you do need a pin number if the card is chipped. You won't need the pin for online shopping, though. But how would a hobo have access to a computer with internet connection?

Most public libraries offer the use of computers for a certain amount of time for free.

Edited out for being too early in the morning for me to comment without sounding dumb.
