Today, one of our regular customers came in and was telling me he bought an assault rifle. I told him not to go off his meds and shoot up the store, as a joke. Later, my manager told me that the guy is on antidepressants and was discharged from the military for being "mentally unfit." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my boss told me to fire the unstable, former military, gun nut employee. He's been making death threats to his supervisors. FML
Today, one of my customers told me he was going to kill himself when I explained to him that I wasn't going to be able to deliver him the gallon of milk he wanted. I work in a pharmacy, dispensing medication. FML
Today, a customer threatened to come back later and shoot the whole place up. Why? I didn't give him a discount on his beer. My boss's reaction when I called the police: "Why didn't you give him the discount?!" Last week he bitched me out for letting a girl off for being a few cents short on hers. FML
Today, while working in my pharmacy, a patient told me that he sometimes wants to jump the counter and skin me alive. He has no more refills, and his doctor is out of town for the week. FML
Today, a customer's credit card was declined. His totally reasonable reaction was to threaten to put a bullet in the back of my head. FML
Today, after finally getting rid of an extremely rude, abusive customer, I muttered that I could kill people like her. I didn't know my manager had heard me, until a pair of police officers arrived. He'd reported me for "threatening to murder a customer". FML
Today, my short-tempered, alcoholic boyfriend proudly showed me the rifle he bought. This guy regularly swears at his own sneezes and often flies into fits of rage because it's hard to get his shoe on. Time to move out. FML
Today, I was dismissed because of my company's strict "no drugs" policy. Yesterday, I had a talk with my team leader and confessed that I have to take antidepressants; this arse then reported it to the management, and they fired me because they are not aware of what these pills contain, and it could affect my performance. FML
Today, the same person who tried to OD, threatens suicide monthly, and threatens to off people almost daily, called the state police on me because I had a PTSD episode. FML
Today, a customer came into the store I work at to ask why I hadn't killed myself yet. A month prior, that same customer told me to kill myself. All I did was compliment her shirt. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

What #3 said, how was this guy able to get a gun license at all if he was discharged from the military for being mentally unfit? #45: You really scare me if you think that there's nothing wrong with this situation. There would be a lot less school shootings if people like you would wake up and smell the coffee.

a guy on antidepressants (and discharged from the military for being mentally unfit) bought an assault rifle? doubt it was in a very legal fashion. considering that, why would he tell you?

1. You cannot purchase ANY type of firearm once you have been found to be of unsound mind. 2. You cannot purchase ANY type of firearm once you have been dishonorably discharged from any branch of the military. If this is true all you would have to do is report it. Your manager was probably just messing with you though.

#56- I highly doubt it was a dishonorable discharge. Those are rather difficult to get. Being psychologically incapable of completing your duties would get you an honorable discharge. I also hope his manager was making a (very bad) joke. My bofriend suffers from PTSD (he's an Iraqi War vet) and gets incredibly embarrassed when the topic is brought up. Discussing people's mental issues with someone who has no reason to know is always something done in poor taste. Sure, he made a joke, but that's no justification to gossip about the customer's mental capabilities.

the military should issues sense of humor to all vets. that would solve so many problems!
