Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, someone at my workplace yelled at me and filed a complaint for staring at them too often. I'm a lifeguard. FML
Today, I got fired from my childcare job of five years because the other staff weren't as popular with the kids, so they accused me of being "creepy" because the kids all wanted to play a game with me instead of them. FML
Today, I was fired from my job. I was a lifeguard and the other day a 30 year-old man who only spoke Spanish hit on me. I'm 16 and I'd politely rejected him. He then went to the front desk and told them how I tried molesting him in the locker room. FML
Today, a couple yelled at me and reported me to the homeowner association for "watching them make out" at the pool. I'm the lifeguard. FML
Today, my friend thought it would be funny to post a sign at the deep end of the public swimming pool, saying, "This end topless only." When someone complained, he said that I did it, and I got banned from the pool for life. And fired, too - I was the lifeguard. FML
Today, I was lifeguarding at a community pool when I noticed a toddler go underwater. I quickly jumped in but suddenly got a cramp, which caused me to stall. When I looked up, I saw an old woman saving him, and got a shoe thrown at my head. I was fired. FML
Today, I was working at a local restaurant when another server's table called me over to ask if I've "ever killed anybody". They informed me I looked like a serial killer. I informed them, of course, that I have never killed anybody. Another customer claimed I scared her child. I was fired. FML
Today, I got fired from my job because I "look too grumpy." FML
Today, I was fired for being a very happy and perky employee. According to my boss, it freaks both the customers and my co-workers out. FML
Today, I got fired from a great babysitting job because the little girl said I was boring. FML

You couldn't have explained that to your boss? All lifeguards have to watch the kids in the pool. It's part of the job description...

plot twist; he forgot to mention that he was sporting a stiffy the whole time. I imagine there's a lot more to the story than we are getting.

He shouldn't have had to explain anything to his boss. His boss obviously is an idiot who doesn't understand the meaning of "lifeguard."

She's probably over protective of her kids. What an idiot

Harsh, next time don't have your tongue hanging out like a cartoon character and maybe that won't happen. Honestly people are so paranoid. My father gets into the goo-goo-gaa-gaa stage with little babies and kids because it reminds him of when me and my brother were young. However, I think with today's society any honest, positive, non-creepy affection still is regarded as creepy and "not-normal". I understand protecting your kids but when we have states telling people to be diligent and to keep an eye out for older men holding young kids hands (like any father would do for their young children) you are suppose to call the state because MAYBE, just MAYBE he may actually be a pedophile. Disgusting
