Today, I started my new job. Less than one hour into the day, my boss told me that the reason he hired me was that I was the least attractive of everyone he interviewed, so I'd be less likely to cause a distraction. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boss told me I got my new job because she rejected candidates that seemed "too confident" or "too pretty." FML
Today, I applied for a job as a secretary. As I sat in the waiting room, the interviewer came out with his wife. She gave me a once-over, then said to her husband, "Hire this one. She's so ugly, you would never have an affair with her." FML
Today, I was talking to my boss at the end of an awesome internship. He said he was really satisfied with my work, and that he had considered hiring me. Turns out he decided not to because I smile too much, and it freaks him out. FML
Today, I found out that the reason I'm working as a kitchen staff instead of out on the floor of the café is because the boss does not think I'm attractive enough. My boss is my brother. FML
Today, I started my new job at a small business. I was pretty excited to finally be working, until I found out the big boss is a creeper and sees no problem making comments such as "You're way more interesting than the rest of these slope-eyed fucks." FML
Today, my boss told me that he’d hired me because he thought I looked intelligent. He then went on to say that it was about time that I proved that I was. FML
Today, it was my first day at my new job. My new boss asked me if I was single. After telling him I have been happily married for 6 years, he fired me on the spot. FML
Today, I showed up to my new job early, hoping to impress my new boss. When he arrived, he walked by me and muttered, "Fucking tryhard." FML
Today, at work, a table of girls complained to the manager about me. The complaint? "He's not hot enough to work here. We want a sexy server." The manager agreed with them and sent me home. I might lose my job because of a table of shallow women. FML
Today, I realized why I was hired to be a nanny. Apparently the husband had eyes for the last nanny. According to the wife I am not attractive enough to be a threat. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You still shoudn't assume someone is more attractive than you just because of what someone says. Just accept the job and get money :)

It's better than having a boss hit on you while you work if you were attractive.

Awh..dogs are just so adorable^.^

26-dammit..wrong FML..I thumbed myself down.-.

#26, #28, actually, you might have accidentally posted a pretty funny comment. For us older folk, "dog" is slang for an "ugly woman," so evidently the boss also found dogs to be adorable.

32. Yes I am older and that is exactly where my mind went. So 26-28, Thumbs up!

#51, I think you meant you hope he WAS kidding. If you didn't, **** you.

Well, hey, at least you got the job. I'm a recent college graduate and have yet to find one. If you feel attractive, then that's really all that matters.

The good, the bad, and the op.

Well tell him the only reason you took the job was because you thought he wasn't a complete asshole. But seriously, that guy is a dick. Probably still sucks on his mamas boobies and watches cartoon network.
Pretty_Pink_Lady 10
How does him being a dick correlate into him also being an overgrown infant?
ALlamaOnFire 20
Hey! Cartoon network is great!
phatdaddy62 23
I've been known to tune into Cartoon Network so **** off! Cartoons know no age limit.
LordVader789 3
No cartoon network sucks like never before. They have only two good shows playing currently and hardly ever show any of the good ones.

Children's hospital, super jail, adventure time, metalocalypse just to name a few
greenie213 23
I agree 58, but if they would show the old original looney toons all the time, then I'd be just fine with them.
mimi809o 21
what's wrong with Cartoon Network??...
nightmare_656 2
64 most of the shows on your list are from adult swim
legitkitty 11
Yup, and they're really good ones ;)

At least you won't distract people! :)

Oh really? Clever.

Yeah 6, just like your profile picture. -_-

Ouch.
Warmonger_Smurf 29
He's trying the "insult the girl" tactic. Fail on his part.
Noxialis 10
Hrm, fail? No, I'd say it seems his insult was rather successful, considering it ended up on FML.

66 - I find your profile picture to be deeply disturbing.

Isn't the name for that "negging"?

What's the opposite of sexual harassment? I guess you? Sorry op, at least you have brains, beauty fades.

harassment
the_true_batman 10
Sexual harassment is a subset of harassment, so it they cannot be opposites. That's like saying an elm tree is the opposite of a tree, or that a widescreen tv is the opposite of a tv. Also, don't worry OP, you might have been the ugliest of the people who applied, but that doesn't mean that you're ugly. The slowest person in the 100m at the Olympics isn't slow. The blankest member of a set isn't necessarily blank. Maybe even else who applied was practically a model.

I happen to have an anti-tv which happens to take form of a ball pein hammer.
JustDerpin 11
^tldr: sexual harassment is basically a form of harassment
baronsmommy 14
Well good, if he doesn't notice you the least likely you are to get fired. And who cares why he hired you at least you got he job.
gc327072 31
Doesn't matter, had employment!
CustardAndPie 13
Aww, honey. It's awful when people say stuff like that. But hey, look at it this way; the other interviewees might have been more attractive than you (or they might not, your new boss might just have an awful sense of humour) but YOU'RE the one with a job. They might be absolutely stunning, but it probably won't help them pay the rent.

Why don't people like that just keep that to themselves?
MichellinMan 20
Because they're assholes.
