Today, I woke up with a skull-splitting headache. I braved the wind and freezing temperatures to get to work. Today is also the day my boss thought it would be cute to let the elementary school band play at our office. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I came home from work early due to a massive headache. A half hour later, the jackhammering started. FML
Today, I woke up with a sore throat and a stuffy nose. As my boss is an asshat who hates allowing sick leave, I thought I could power through it, but halfway through my workday I sneezed so hard that I threw my back out. I had to go home early and now I can't move without pain. FML
Today, I came to work with a huge hangover after a night out. I work as a marching band director, and guess who I had to conduct a sectional with? That's right, percussion. My head still hasn't stopped throbbing. FML
Today, I had a nasty headache so I tried to take a nap. Unfortunately, my college had a homecoming parade a block away from where I live. I never knew our marching band sounded that awful. FML
Today, my boss forced me to come into work despite having a bad cold. While waiting a table, I violently sneezed and sprayed a child's face with snot. His dad got so pissed that my boss had to pretend to fire me just to calm him down. FML
Today, I got snowed in. At work. FML
Today, I got a verbal warning at work for "having a resting bitch face." I had a headache. FML
Today, I have a cold, and was stuck sleeping in bed. My roommate decided to wake me up by sticking headphones in my ears and playing heavy metal on full volume. This is the third time this week. FML
Today, I forgot my headphones at home. When I got to work I found out that today was also the day the band next door had decided to practice their only song for 8 hours. FML
Today, I woke up with a splitting headache. Then someone at work wouldn't stop whistling loudly and it was getting on my nerves. "Can the dick who is whistling please stop?" I asked. It was the general manager of my department. I'm still on probation. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Vodca could help OP get over his headache temporarily!
xChaos 29
And will create one even worse, a couple hours later...
colton_colton 50
Which is why i said temporarily help you!

Take some ibuprofen, and cowgirl up.

#25- while it may help temporarily to drink vodka, I foresee it causing worse problems than a headache on a cold day with loud instruments playing in the back ground. He works at an elementary school and I feel as if being drunk or smelling of liquor around small children at school is frowned upon in today's society.

Depends what school you're at and experience. My school is focused more towards music so our bands/orchestra's (I'm in one of them. ) Are good in my opinion. I've played an instrument for about 2 years and most people in most of the bands at my school have played longer. ( I'm in a high school mixed with a primary school, makes sense if you are from Australia) ( I'm in high school)

You've got to be kid-ding me. Hope you feel better OP, and that your day wasn't too bad!

Did he just let the band in? Or was it like scheduled? If it was scheduled you really can't complain. It just sucks. Sorry OP. ;~;

Even if it was scheduled, OP didn't have to know about it.
buttcramp 21
true. Plus, OP shouldn't have gotten so shitty on a weeknight.

Well your Boss's heart is in the right place, unfortunately your head is not.

I hope there wasn't someone playing the recorder - these things are the musical instruments of satan.
1947Chevy 17
Musical instruments of satan? I always figured they were the instruments of something far more evil

Mayonnaise?
wellthen7154 12
Gosh darn it mayonnaise is STILL not an instrument!! I'd assume that the instrument of the devil is the E-flat (soprano) clarinet.

Was thinking more on the lines of a gold fiddle.

#45 What's wrong with trombone? I played for a few years, the sound is lovely, you know.

A day that bad has to mean something awesome is about to happen to you, OP. Keep your head up, and enjoy the music! ;)

I actually don't know how to help you on that one. maybe run to the bathroom while they play.

Looks like you might be a little high strung today. Did you do anything that might get you in treble? Be sure to take note of anything rash you might do
