Today, a vendor contacted me to let me know that our contract renewal went through. Turns out, I misread our original contract and now I've obligated our company to buy $24k of services, when my boss wanted to cancel it. It's only February and I already know I'm not getting a bonus this year. FML

Today I saw a beggar with the sign 'no food, no money' so I bought him a Mc Donalds veggie meal with a drink and a small burger for his dog, I placed the meal beside him and walked away, twelve steps away a Mc Donalds barge (full) hit me in the back of my head! think he might have preferred the 1/4 pounder!
