New hire
Today, my mom started her new job; she's now my new coworker. She's already told the other girl I'd said she talks too much, and has berated me for not calling her "Mom" while at work. FML

Today, I finally started my dream job. I turned up for work with a huge smile on my face. Imagine how much my face dropped when I saw that I had to share an office with the girl I stood up last weekend. FML

Happy/Sad
Today, I started the job of my dreams, which I’ve spent 20 years trying to get, only to get a call that my mom, who supported me when no one else would or could, went into a coma. I didn’t even get to tell her I started the job. FML

Supportive
Today, my mother followed me to work to see what I got up to. I'm a fitness instructor in a ground floor gym that has big windows overlooking the street. She stood outside and waved at me for half an hour, while I tried to concentrate on teaching a visibly amused class. FML

regardless of your relationship with your mother, having a job at all is a lucky thing in this economy, so no FML here. i wouldn't mind working with my mom right now cuz a job is a job. no one has the perfect job that they want ever, something will make you unhappy. that's life. once again, you have a job, so that trumps everything else. stop being whiny.

you have a job, you get paid. who cares ,... grow up ?? it's your mother, a really important piece in your heart. she loves you provides/provided for you, put you on earth. Now your complaining about working in the same office as her? it's sad. I honestly fail to see the FML.. I really do. if any one disagrees that's fine but I really don't like ppl who always see their own mother as an embarassement..
