Today, my mom told me that Walmart had called and I had an interview at 9:30. I went to Walmart. They told me they didn't have any interviews set up. I went back home and listened to the voice-mail on her cellphone. It was the Subway in Walmart. I've been looking for a job for 3 months. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I tried to get a job at Walmart. My mom was the hiring manager. She turned me down due to lack of work experience. FML
Today, I was interviewed by a WalMart employee for a position in their pharmacy. I didn't get the job. I was more qualified than the woman who gave me the interview. FML
Today, I have put in many job applications and had many interviews for a variety of positions all of which I am highly qualified for. Today, I heard back from all but one that I am overqualified. Welcome to Walmart. FML
Today, I had a job interview at Walmart. They showed a video of me stealing. FML
Today, I was in Walmart with my mom. I was looking for some CDs I wanted and saw a cute guy. Then he nodded at me and as he started to walk towards me, I hear my name being called over the intercom. Apparently, according to my mom, it was time to go. FML
Today, my roommate has a job interview. He only applied to the job yesterday. Meanwhile, I've been out of work for three weeks. I've applied to at least ten jobs. I have yet to get a call-back from any of them. FML
Today, I had a job interview today after being unemployed for months. I left early but a stranger's giant SUV had me blocked in for over two hours. I called to explain the situation in the hope that I would be given another interview slot later in the week. I was told I clearly didn’t want the job. FML
Today, I got a call from the only company that asked me to come in for an interview of the many applications I submitted. I answered it even though I was at my current job. My boss heard and chewed me out. The call was to cancel the interview since the position was filled. FML
Today, I got a phone call for a interview at Target at 4:30 pm. I got super excited, so I got dressed up and headed over there. I told the manager that I was there for my interview. He didn't know what I was talking about. My friends had prank called me. FML
Today, I was at a job interview. The interviewer spoke to me for a few minutes, then said she would be right back, and left. I was left alone in a room for an hour and a half believing that it was a patience test. They closed the store for the day, leaving me in the interview room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should always double check those types of things instead of taking (even your mom's!) word for it!!

YDI. Should've double checked the voicemail yourself ahead of time. Never assume someone else will be able to relay the message correctly, especially when it's that important to you.

Maybe you should listen to your voicemail's more often!! Well lesson learned

It was the OP's mothers cell phone. Maybe you should read the FML before you post. The OP is probably in High School and doesn't have and can't afford a cell phone. Which may be why they want to get a job. OP, trying going back to Subway. Dress fresh.

well didn't you know the best employees are those who have their mom relay the information, and get a ride from their mom? lol

Maybe, if he's broke from being jobless, he doesn't have the money to pay for a cellphone. Which would be a completely legitimate and acceptable reason as to why he uses his mothers cell phone.

It's always better to give a cellphone number , because most likely you won't be home that often these days. What OP did was smart. There was a lack of communication in this FML

Errr. A home phone?

Who had a land line these days?

Try searching for a job for over a year. And why did you give them your mothers mobile number? Why not a home phone, or your own cell? Good luck though

A very large percentage of households don't have home phones anymore. And if he's looking for a job, he's probably broke, and very likely can't afford a phone of his own.

Some people can't afford the convenience of a cell phone

Your mom has alot to remember and think of, she can't remember everything right all the time :(, you should probably listen to the voice-mail next time to make sure. Good luck finding another job ;)

Mom's too busy looking that blast in the alley behind Walmart.

Okay why do they have your mothers number and not yours? You don't have a phone? And my mom probably would have done that to me too.
desireev 18
He's probably broke from not having a job which would be the reason he doesn't have a phone and has to use his mothers phone.

Did you ever read the comments that previous people posted? It's annoying reading the same shit over and over again.

True. I'd be surprised if my mom even got that part right

The voice mail must've been really unclear if you didn't hear the "subway"
