Today, when I went to work, my nice coworker gave me a gift basket. And cookies. I had to tell him that I caught his kid keying my car last night. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while I was at work, a co-worker watched while some kid stole the radio out of my car. FML
Today, I decided to cover a coworker's closing shift because she felt sick. My boss even gave me a $10 gift card for doing it. I felt good about it, until I walked outside and found that my car had been stolen. FML
Today, my husband came home with a Christmas gift from a coworker. It's the same thing I got him. FML
Today, a coworker and I pulled a April Fools' prank on our boss. She "borrowed" his keys and rolled down his window. I took a car window from a scrap yard and sprinkled it on the ground near his door. His response was to kick the nearest object in anger. The nearest object happened to be my car. FML
Today, my coworker had been distraught over not being able to keep his dog after his divorce, so trying to be sweet, I'd ordered a specially-made stuffy that looked like it. I put it on his desk with a note and cookies. He thought I was mocking him and threw the plate at me. FML
Today, I was working at a donation center. I was having a really rough day, so my fiancée dropped me off some cookies. At the end of my shift, the manager told me I couldn't take them home because they were donated and therefore they were "company property." FML
Today, after working the midnight shift at my job, I thought it would be nice to leave a sweet love note along with my boyfriend's favourite candy in his car. Upon finding it, he immediately broke up with me for "breaking into" his car. FML
Today, while at work at a new job, my brother comes and takes my car. Along with all my money, my phone, and whatever else I had in my purse. His message to me through one of my co-workers was "walk home." FML
Today, it was my birthday, and my kids gave me my car keys I had "lost" a week ago. FML
Today, I was in a bad mood after being stuck in traffic for 2 hours and late for work. I was walking to my building when I saw a 100 dollar note flying my way. A man called after me for it, but being selfish I took the note in my pocket as a little reward. That man was my boss. Yes, I'm fired. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

He probably found out and is apologizing low-key.

Was this gift basket perhaps because of said keying of car?

Otherwise it seems very odd to give someone a gift basket. Or perhaps I am/have shitty co-workers.

Speaking of "low-key," that pun was smooth. Very well done.

I think you've just found out what the gift basket is for.

So probably a thanksgiving gift, but now you can be thankful you have something to binge on when you find out the cost of a new paint job

"Today, being the nice guy I am, I gave my coworker a gift basket and cookies after my kid keyed his car last night. He still mentioned it. FML" Really hoping to see this published so everyone tells your nice coworker what a sneaky asshole he is.

If the gift basket contained Bondo, sandpaper and touch-up paint, you guys are Even Steven.

Aww that's awful, hopefully gift basket was a legitimate gift and not bribe. Still I hope they won't take offense to your honesty about their kid keying your car.

cover the dent with the basket

Keying a car usually doesn't cause dents. Just messes up the paint job and leaves scratches in the metal.
