Today, I started a new internship. I couldn't do anything until I was trained, and I couldn't be trained until I had a login. I stared at a wall for three hours. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I started the internship of my dreams. The company has nothing for me to do, so I sit and stare at the clock. FML
Today, I procrastinated on doing my on-line training for my new job. Thinking it would only take a few hours to complete, I started it in the early evening. It is now almost 4 am, and I start my new job in 3 hours. There is still about another hour and a half on on-line training left. FML
Today, I got a job offer and was asked to come in at 5am for training. I sat there for about 2 hours before giving up. I was at the wrong site. FML
Today, I have been at my new job for almost a month and still have no idea what I'm doing. FML
Today, I started a new job. The synopsis of my training was, "You're starting a job you're going to hate and you'll be fired for entertaining yourself while waiting for us to give you more work. But you're going to love being here." FML
Today, I started my first day of work. I was told to absorb everything going on and to get used to the high-paced flow of things. I've been sitting at my desk for two hours now, and the office has been empty since I've walked in. FML
Today, I started my job at a warehouse. I was the only person in my training group who needed help wrapping a pallet. FML
Today, I've been working for a company for six months, but I still don't know my job fully because my trainer is difficult. He would get mad because I'd wait until he was done explaining before asking questions, so I changed and asked as soon as he said something I didn't know, but would get, "Well, if you'd let me finish…" FML
Today, I was supposed to start a new job. I had accepted a new position with a different company three weeks ago, and gave my notice. At the time, I even trained my replacement. Today, I found out that my new work doesn't need me anymore. So, I'm unemployed. FML
Today, I was let go from my internship for "not putting in enough effort". I was working 50 hours a week for almost zero pay. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I mean, you could have stared at the floor to heat things up.

Take it easy pal. Let's not get too crazy.

Did the wall at least have windows? Nevermind, windows would be a bad idea since it most likely was the reason your login took three hours.

Are you sure you didn't apply for a job at WallMart

Corporate America. It's why we are losing.

Some are, some aren't.... Pretty much varies on the dedication they have. My dad works with complete idiots in his department and some don't even know what they are talking about.

My login was made the day before I started, you'd hope they were more prepared. I hope things get better and this is their only **** up.
