Today, I was greeting customers at work. After saying good morning to one man, he stopped and looked at me from head to toe before smirking and saying, "Mmmm." He then turned around and said, "It's starting." It's only my first day. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, at my first day of work, I was impressing my trainer with my skills by carrying many trays at once. Well, I could until I came around a corner and ran into a customer. With food all over his front, he introduced himself to me as the head manager. FML
Today, at work, a customer was staring at me for a long time. Hoping to break the awkwardness, I asked him what brought him to the store today. He complimented me on my friendly demeanor, then followed up with, "Since you're so friendly, how about coming in the bathroom with me and giving me a hand?" FML
Today, I excitedly got ready for my first day at my new job. I arrived on time, dressed up, only to find out they meant next Monday, not today. My new boss just gave me a weird look and said, "See you next week?" FML
Today, I was wondering why I was getting strange looks all day at work. When I got to a mirror after my shift, I noticed a booger hanging out of my nose, which was visible only when I smiled. My job involves greeting people all day with a huge smile. FML
Today, we were running a special at work that I had previously been told was an online-only special. After the general manager corrected me, I used the joke excuse of, "It's my first day". The customer replied, "I can tell". I've worked there two years and I'm the assistant manager. FML
Today, while at work, a creepy guy blatantly stared at my chest for a good 40 seconds. Finally snapping out of his trance, he said with a wink, "You forgot your name tag." He was right. FML
Today, was my first day at a new job. I was really pleased with how much positive attention I was getting in a mainly male office. Guess whose shirt was see-through. FML
Today, I walked into work, and the first question my boss asks me is "Are those your pajamas?" I was wearing my favorite outfit. FML
Today, I went to work at my new job after taking a shower but I'd forgotten to put on deodorant. I started getting strange looks and wondered why, only to find out later that everyone was talking about me, including someone I have a crush on. FML
Today, on my first day of work, my new boss treated me to lunch. Thinking she was really nice, I thanked her for the treat. She fixed me with a cold, unsmiling stare and said, "Oh, don't thank me. I'm being paid to do this." FML

Are you hideous? It could be the zombie apocalypse he was referring to.

He's clearly talking about his usual morning coffee. It's starting to brew.

Ugh, I can't stand pervert customers. I'm pretty sure they're only weird with customer service representatives because they know if they talk to a man/woman whose job doesn't mandate standing there and smiling, they'll get slapped. Customer service people are easy targets because they're not allowed to retaliate.

This is the funniest FML I've read in a while.

Haha my first day, a drunk guy walked in, yelled at me saying "hey!!! Your kinda cute" and then later persisted on telling how amazing my jeans would look on his bedroom floor.

My advice (for both you & the op) lean in like you're into it and say "I have a taser in my bag sir, be appropriate or walk away"

I have so many questions 1) where do you work/what do you work as 2) what did he mean when he said "it's starting"? 3) when he said "Mmmmm" was it more of a Mmmmm-yum or Mmmmm-yikes? 4) when he turned around who was he talking to, was he talking to anyone? 5) Seriously!!!! What's starting?! The play? The apocalypse? The fashion return to the 80s? The invasion of the college students/newbies/etc...? The end? I have to know! I need to know!! I must- *explodes from frustration*
