Today, trying to make a good impression and be helpful, I volunteered to look after my manager's cat while she moves house. The cat hasn't stopped meowing since he got here this evening, it's now 4 am and I have work in the morning. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boss brought his cat to the office. Despite our no pet policy, I still managed to get the blame when the crazy animal scratched 3 colleagues and peed on the floor after my boss left for bathroom. Apparently I was supposed to be "looking after it". FML
Today, during my shift as a vet nurse, I picked up a gorgeous cat for cuddles, only to discover it was covered with pee. And now I am too. I still have 4 hours of my shift. FML
Today, I'm taking care of my friend's cat while he's away for a while. She's very clingy and friendly, which I don't mind… or at least, I thought I didn't mind, until I tried to go to sleep and she insisted on lying on my face. I felt bad for having to kick her out of the bedroom. FML
Today, I've been assigned to watch my friend's cat while he's away from home. His cat is 22 years-old and very grumpy. Most of my time has been spent making sure she's not dead, and getting attacked when I accidentally interrupt her naps. I've already got a few scratches. This is gonna be a long few days. FML
Today, my girlfriend called me four times in a row at work. Worried, I stepped outside and answered the phone. Through tears, she screamed, "It's the cat!" Was he sick or hurt? "NO! He won't stop meowing!" FML
Today, my incredibly needy rescue cat - who knows she doesn't get to go into my bedroom at night - decided that she needed to wail and scratch the bedroom door from midnight until 5 a.m. Now that I'm awake, she's ignoring me because she knows I'm mad at her. FML
Today, my only day off this week, my cat decided that she wanted feeding at 5am and wouldn’t stop meowing till I filled up her bowl. She then refused to eat it. FML
Today, after struggling to fall asleep due to stress, my cat decided to wake me up by standing on me and meowing until I got up. Just for me to show him that my boyfriend had already put food in his dish. FML
Today, and every other night since my new neighbors moved in two weeks ago, their cat has been standing outside my house meowing constantly up at my window, where my cat keeps standing and meowing back. It's like a feline version of Romeo and Juliet, and I can't sleep. FML
Today, at my new job, I realized I have been spending too much time with just my cat. As I passed some coworkers in the hall, I nodded and gave them the "slow blink of trust" that is used with cats. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Snuggle with the kitty. Maybe he/she just wants attention. Or hungry.

Woah. Woah. Woah. Little extreme. And besides, OP is from Vancouver, in CANADA, the nicest country on Earth. The worst thing a Canadian can say is that the roads are closed.

Fyl Op. Cats never shut the **** up, especially when you're trying to sleep. This is why my cat is now an outdoor cat.

Yeah, #44, it sucks when owners who know nothing about animals decide to raise them, do it wrong, and then blame it on the pets. I feel ya.

I admit, my comment was a bit harsh. I've had many cats in my life who I've enjoyed very much. I've had this cat for three years and up until 6 months ago, he always wants to be outside and only comes around to eat and sleep. My other cats were loving and liked being inside so maybe I'm bummed. *sigh* Even so, I still make sure he has plenty of food and water waiting when he comes around. Ok I'm done venting. :)

I'm gonna go with YDI for kissing up your manager's ass. I doubt that your manager will even consider that 'helping him cat-sit while he moves houses' as a reason for promotion.

No but it might help. It says something about her personality and that MIGHT help out in the future. You reap what you sow
