Today, I spent all day handing out flyers advertising my services as a psychic. I got only one call. The caller wanted to inform me that I had misspelt the word "psychic" on my flyer. She was right. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I spent ages writing a draft press release as part of a copywriting job application. I worked really hard and read it through several times before submitting. They emailed me to point out that I'd misspelled the name of the company. Twice. FML
Today, after all of the business cards for the car dealership that I work for were printed, the phone number was wrong, and the lady got so pissed about getting so many calls that she told them that they had won a free car. I had to tell dozens of ecstatic customers that they hadn't. FML
Today, I realized I had misspelled "Education" on all the resumes I've been submitting. FML
Today, I finished doing a resume that I had spent three hours on. I e-mailed it to the business I was applying for, satisfied. I decided to look it over. The first thing I notice, I spelt my own name wrong. FML
Today, after many days of messing around with wording and pictures, a huge and expensive printed card order came in to the office. I spelled the first word wrong. I can't get a refund. FML
Today, while at work at a maternity and baby clothes store, I was supposed to send out an email about our "Beat the Clock" sale. After it was sent to over 500 people, I realized that I'd misspelled the subject line. It read, "Beat the Cock Sale." FML
Today, I had to repeatedly explain to an increasingly angry lady that no, she couldn't get an ultrasound by using a referral letter from her psychic. FML
Today, I got a call from an ad agency offering me a job. I was so excited, because I've been looking for work for a few months now and really wanted to work for them. An hour later, they called apologizing, because they'd made a mistake and offered the job to the wrong person. FML
Today, I got a missed call from a lady at an employment agency asking why I hadn't turned up to an information session for a potential job. Yesterday, the same lady told me the job position was canceled. FML
Today, I was writing out palm cards and didn't know if I'd spelled a word correctly, so I stared at it for about 10 seconds waiting for spell check to tell me if it was right or not before I realised I was writing on paper. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Maybe the psychic just wanted a TV show, with a sidekick, helping their local police solve crimes. Waaiiitt a minute, that sounds so familiar!!

I am a complete non believer in the paranormal (including religion) and used to be very scathing about it. However my friend recently went to one and I listened to the recording. she gave such good advice and my friend has not been more focussed or happy while, I'm less dismissive of the benefits.

you must not be a very good one because then you would have known what was going to happen

I predict more failures in your life and you should really stop wearing thong underwear people can read your lips.

YDI for trying to con people. BTW, you misspelled "misspelled" too.

3 ydis here: 1) your obvious, glaring spelling error 2) "mispelt" = "misspelled" (usa), or "misspelt" (uk) 3) you're a psychic. or so you say. anyway, i'm at liberty to use my psychic powers here and say that your business is going to fail. also, i have to add (for the grammar nazi denizens of this thread) that "flier" and "flyer" *can* be synonymous. however, it is not a common occurrence, and "flyer" is more correct and more frequently used. **** it. |the kid|

Obviously I'm a psychic and foresaw what you were going to post. ;) Not really, though. Obviously.
