Today, while delivering pizzas, someone ordered $19.41 in pizza and wings. After finally finding her appartment, she paid me in two sandwich bags full of pennies and nickels. I had to count them out before giving her the pizza. We aren't allowed to enter the residence, and it was 22 degrees. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, while I was delivering pizza in the torrential downpour, I waited 5 minutes in the pouring rain for an old lady to dig 20 bucks out of her purse. Her total was $19.99. She told me to keep the change and make lots of money. FML
Today, I was delivering pizzas for my summer job. I got a big order to deliver for a fellow graduate's party. While I was being paid for the order my friend shows up and says "Don't pay him, his parents are rich, he can handle it." Then they shut the door and took off. The bill was $75. FML
Today, I was delivering pizza in the rain. A woman answered the door, saw me soaking wet and said, "Wow this rain is terrible, it must be horrible to be out delivering in it." She then tipped me 21 cents. FML
Today, I had to watch my neighbor's daughter for 10 hours. She wouldn't eat anything I had to offer, so I ordered a pizza for $19 + a $5 tip = $24. Her father came by to pick her up, thanked me, and gave me a $20 bill. I effectively just paid to watch his kid. FML
Today, I got a $20 tip from an old lady I delivered pizza to. Ecstatic, I walked back to my car where there was a $30 parking fine waiting for me. FML
Today, I ordered pizza for dinner and left cash by the door so my son could pay for it, in case it arrived before I got home. I told him they should get all the money, but I just found the tip. Apparently he thought I'd miscounted. I'm a server. FML
Today, at my retail job, a woman came to my till with her purchases. After I scanned all her items, she handed me two small bags. One was filled with nickels and dimes. The other was filled with cents. Her total was $28.53. The coins amounted to $22.30. FML
Today, I was bitched out by a pizza delivery man. I didn't have the cash to pay him for a pizza I didn't even order. FML
Today, I was doing takeout orders at the restaurant I work at. I spent a long while putting together this guy's $135.00 order. When he finally got there to pick it up, I told him to fill out the credit card slip. I looked at it after he left. He gave me a 40 cent tip. FML
Today, I rang up a customer’s items. The total came out to $24.67. She handed me a bag full of coins and looked at me expectantly. I asked if she had any other payment methods; she got irritated and said ,“If I did, I wouldn’t have given you this, stupid!” I had to count them. She was still 6 dollars short. FML

At least it wasn't raining but she made it, in the proverbial monetary sense...

No, she made it hail.

At 22° F it would have been snowing most likely, not raining...

Let's hope she had her oven/microwave broken so she had to eat the food stone cold

I don't know why you're complaining, that's actually pretty warm.

Okay, let us take a little time out to think. This FML took place in the US. In the US people use Fahrenheit. If it WAS in Celsius, why would the OP even mention the weather? C'mon now.

#55. Do you like standing outside in below freezing temperatures counting ridiculous amounts of cold coins?

If that's farenheit, then if feel for you brother, if it's Celsius, then it reaches up to 35 degrees where I live, which is perfect. Either way, the bag full of coins.... Just make sure you take a longer route to hers the next time you recognise that address ;)

It's in the US. It's 22F

Next time just take the cash back to the pizza parlor. No reason for you to get a cold if they stiffed you a dollar in pennies. Your boss should be reasonable and understand, particularly with that weather.

I used to deliver pizzas. Nothing near that bad happened to me. That sounds awful

I had that happen...my downside was I wasn't tipped...they tried to pay me with a 100$ bill the first time and of course I couldn't break it..,
