Today, my car heater finally died. I deliver pizzas. In Alaska. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
It's all too much
Today, my car crapped out in the middle of the road, after over a year of only being able to find short contract jobs, all while juggling the grief of the back to back deaths of my mother and grandfather. FML
Today, my car broke down on the highway, and I had to call for a tow truck. It finally showed up, only to break down too less than a mile later. Cue nearly freezing to death while we waited for help to arrive for the both of us. FML
Today, it was a little colder than it should be for this time of year, and as a result I was using the heater in my car. Apparently within the last four months, a mouse managed to make his way into my heater vent and die. I can not get the smell of death out of my car. FML
Such a Jerry thing to do...
Today, I woke up and realized I didn't start a fire last night. I live in Alaska and our winter nights can reach -30 below zero. My fish are dead, my plasma television won't turn on, and the cat has frostbite. FML
Today, because of the gas crisis in my state, we had to stop taking delivers at the pizza place I work at. Someone asked if we could walk it to them. My manager agreed. FML
Drama kings and queens unite!
Today, I was doing some routine maintenance on my car when a radiator connector broke unexpectedly. I realized I'd rather walk 3 miles in freezing temperatures than call my nearest friends for a ride and have to listen to their drama. FML
Today, I took my car into the mechanic to have two tires and battery put in, all new. I later got a call saying they tried to start my car on the dead battery, which sparked and started a fire. It's gonna take two weeks to get the parts and it's minus 30 outside. FML
Today, I ran out of gas while driving, and had to call a tow truck. I drive a tow truck. FML
Today, my car fob died on me when I was going to get donations because my house burnt down two days ago, FML
Have yourself a merry little Xmas
Today, on Christmas Eve, as I was getting my car loaded for the holiday rounds to the in-laws and parents, my car decided now was the time to break down. I recently put in over $1000 fixing it. FML

Sounds like frigid misery. At least there's a chance that your body will shut down in the middle of your mind-numbingly monotonous workday. That would be a blessing for you./ Life. Don't talk to me about life.

Notice how he says, "Finally." As if he wanted it to die?

Some people in Alaska rely on your heater to heat their pizzas, as they use the pizzas as heaters. life. talk to be about life.

finally? were you waiting for it to get wrecked or something? if it's that bad slap the pizzas on your face and drive around

whoever this moderator is, he must be from alaska. I only suggested that alaskans use the pizza boxes for heaters. that joke took a whole 2 minutes to type on and iPod.

He could always bring a battery powered heater into his car from his house :S

You live in Alaska and your username is Glaciernerd. Wow.

Haha, I live I North pole! I remember when I first came on this site, only one other person claimed Alaska. Ah well. OP, this made me laugh. it took me 7 hours to thaw and get a jump on my battery this morning due to a blown breaker. I couldn't imagine working in my car for a long period. But, you shoulda begged borrowed or worked OT to fix your heater before the "finally" came to play.

more like fix the heater or buy a new one because some people may like alaska and probably own at least 10 jackets

More like find a better job, cuz delivering pizzas doesn't earn you a new heater.

Actually a lot people actually get paid to live there because if the shitty conditions, and I believe their minimum wage is about 12 or 13 dollars.

There's always one "...in this economy" comment in every employment related FML.

31, are you surprised in an economy like this?

Some people can't afford to be surprised in this economy.

I am pretty sure you can get a job anywhere that doesnt involve education if you would get off your sorry ass

#86, it's not easy to get ANY sort of job at all right now. It took me three years and several hundred applications to every place I could find before I finally got a job.

the "bad economy" has hardly even laid it's finger on Alaska. haha :p

why you gotta be the one feeg??

He wasn't complaining about the job. He was saying his heater went out in Alaska and his job requires him to spend a lot of time in the car.

Righttttt? How?
neverneverland 1
since you list ft rich as your home town, im assuming youre a military baby and youre not really FROM alaska. so please dont tell the world what is good or not good for us. chances are, with you being 16, you have no REAL interest in politics so why dont you just shut the hell up since youre only speaking to hear yourself talk.
neverneverland 1
sorry, my rant was for sshelbyy.
boatkicker 5
neverneverland Being 16 doesn't mean someone isn't genuinely interested in politics. I was first interested in politics when I was about 14.
bribubbles 10
Good one 7 oh and neverneverland whomever you are don't say that just because I am 14 doesn't mean I am completely incompetent my mom has a masters degree in polisci (political science) and masters in foreign affairs so last time I checked I probably know more than you so you should just shut your mouth and stop judging people!! I hope that you stop being a stupid pig!!

If your car heater died, your car is about to die, and then your life is going to suck even worse.

Your car heater dying has nothing to do with your car dying.
DmnUall 0
if you live in Alaska you should probably make sure your heater is properly maintained. you said it 'finally' died so you knew there was a problem. YDI for being a gucking retard. I bet you even think Sarah Palin is smart and has good ideas.
spanelli 16
Don't make the assumption that the OP knew there was something wrong over one word. It could have been an older car for all you know. Also, learn to use proper grammar before you call anybody stupid.

Also, don't diss Sarah.. Especially since nobody could ever be worse than Obama.

#10, **** you, how about you try and fix the heater on a pizza delivery wage? despite popular belief there is poverty in this country asshole.
