Today, I tried to write a bad review for the fast-food place at which I work part-time. My username made me anonymous, but I forgot to change my profile picture. Now my manager and coworkers won't even speak to me. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I accidentally posted an extensive, negative review of the gynecologist I visited earlier this week. I messed up and posted it from my work's customer service email, so now it looks like the large, well-known company I work for had a poor gynecological experience. FML
Today, my promotion at work was revoked and I was written up, all because some customer decided to write a negative review about me on Google. Apparently, I was “rude” to her and “rolled my eyes at her” and called her stupid. I never met this woman a day in my life, and they won’t believe me. FML
Today, after 3 months of successful business at my restaurant, sales are down the shitter. Why? Because some no-life troll started posting loads of bad reviews online. He uses different names, but nothing in the reviews has ever happened. We can't get the reviews taken down. FML
Today, HR sent a review email to me asking me to anonymously tell them about my boss. I decided to use this opportunity to tell them what a dick he was. I printed off the review, filled it out, then scanned and emailed it to myself. Or so I thought. Turns out I'd sent the review to my boss. FML
Today, I got a bad review on my work's Facebook page. The girl said I was very rude and I should never work with the public. I was trying to flirt with her. FML
Today, I was getting lunch at a fast food restaurant. My boss was in front of me, and in order to get on his good side I offered to pay. Instead, I got fired because I guess my boss assumed I was making fun of his salary, which I knew nothing about. FML
Today, I received an e-mail telling me the job offer I got last week was rescinded. Apparently, the memes I share on my Instagram page are "tasteless" and don’t fit the company’s values. I forgot my profile is public. FML
Today, I took an embarrassing picture of myself in my work uniform, acting goofy and such, to send to my friends but I accidentally sent it to my manager. It was a very jeopardizing pose. I’m supposed to start tomorrow. FML
Today, at work, we had an extremely rude customer who started cussing at us, and my coworker started cussing back. I jumped on the register to quickly bring down the line, and apologized to everyone for the scene. A secret shopper was in the line and claimed that I was rude. I got written up. FML
Today, I wrote a bad review for a pizza place after their pizza gave me food poisoning. Now, they won't stop calling me, begging me to take my review down in exchange for free pizza. I have tried to tell them that I wouldn't eat their pizza again even if I got paid to do so, but they won't listen. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Question: why would you want to write a bad review for the place you work at?

If you have a problem with where you work, you should have the balls to bring it up with your coworkers. YDI

They won't talk to you? I'm surprised you still have a job.

For all you people who always say if your unhappy just quit and find a new job. 1. Its a job 90% of them suck and you will always be unhappy. 2. Have you ever tried to actually find a new job? Especially in a city with a high population. Its not nearly as easy as you make it sound without A. ( Experience in that field) or B. (A good education in that field) And even then it can be difficult to find a replacement that will not only hire you but also pay enough to survive. I work in the most bullshit crap place i have ever worked. You know why? Because it pays damn good and i have a family to support. Suck it up. If every job was wonderful to work at it wouldn't be called work.

Doing something like that can get op fired in quite a few states.

This deserves more thumbs up. "Get a new job" isn't a valid response. A job isn't something that can be easily thrown away and replaced.

I hit the YDI button so hard I had to check to make sure my screen was ok.

I'm still clicking it but I can't give more YDIs.

This is the fast track to getting yourself fired, OP. You should bring your concerns to your manager. If you really dislike the place maybe you should be looking for a new job.

A bad review would reflect poorly on the staff so of course they don't want to talk to you- you are selfish and petty. Your actions could have caused them to have been disciplined for something they did not even do. There are plenty of people out there who cannot even get a job, and frankly you don't deserve this one.

Honestly I'm surprised you weren't fired.

Good job numb nuts.

I hate to break it to you OP, but now they have grounds to fire you. I work in a fast-food place and our policy is, if you deliberately make a bad review, you are on grounds to get fired.

Exactly. Saying anything bad on social media too

#39, very true. I once wrote a bad review, BUT it was because my boss put a spicy nugget in my food. I am severely allergic to the part of the pepper that they put on the nuggets to make it spicy. I put a complaint in because it wasn't the first time that had happened.
