Embarrassing, Awkward and Work: Fake it til you make it

Fake it til you make it

Today, bouncing at a local bar. I I.D.'d a girl with a group of people. I told her that next time she used a fake I.D., she at least should get one with a picture that looked like her. She started crying and ran off. A guy told me that she had been in a car wreck, and had been badly disfigured. FML

Adding insult to injury

Today, I got into an accident and my car was totaled. My friends then took me out to a bar for a drink to make me feel better. It appears that the police officer I'd spoken to had kept my I.D. by mistake and I couldn't get into the bar. FML

Today, I contacted a girl who dropped her ID at a club last night. I offer to drive 2 hours to return her ID to her. She is thrilled. When I arrive, she gives me a strange look, takes the ID, and runs back into her house. A two hour drive without even a thank you. FML

Today, I was on Facebook when I saw a picture a popular girl I don't talk to had posted of her fake ID. She had used my full name and identical signature. FML

Today, I got shitfaced at a club. A cute girl I'd met earlier in the evening offered to drive me home in my car and spend the night with me. She crashed my car and did a runner before the cops showed up. They wouldn't believe my story. I now have a wrecked car and a DUI. FML

Today, I was relaxing alone at a bar when I was approached by the most gorgeous woman I've ever seen. She was too good to be true, so I asked, "Is this some kind of a prank?" She immediately turned around and left. She thought I was calling her ugly. I'll never see her again. FML

Today, I got punched in the face by a girl for asking if she was okay after I had seen her crying. FML

Today, a cute thirty-ish chick walked into the bar I work in. I asked her for her license to make her feel young. She didn't have her license on her and started yelling about how stupid it was to even ask, when she obviously was old enough to drink. She then got up and left. FML

It wasn't me

Today, I met a great girl at a party. We talked alone, and she made me promise I'd dance with her later. When I saw her later, she was unconscious, and in an ambulance. She'd collapsed, and the entire party assumed I'd spiked her drink. FML

Today, I saw a cute girl at a night club. When I approached her and introduced myself, she said "Don't you remember me? We danced here last weekend... but you were smashed that night". I cheekily replied "Oh really? That's hot, what happened next?" She said "You were hitting on me. So, I left." FML

Today, I saw a drunk guy hitting on a girl sitting alone at the bar. She insisted that her boyfriend was there, but he didn't relent. So I went over and put my arm around her and asked "Who's this guy?" He walked away, but then I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was her boyfriend. He broke my arm. FML

And she didn't have scars on her face? Or other signs that would indicate she was the girl in the picture and had been disfigured in some way

the I.D. was probably old. and her car accident was probably more recent than her I.D.

oh read that wrong. she probably had the scars removed. and who knows maybe her face was really messed up in the accident.

Bunch of people have already said it, but I'll say it again anyway.. It's not your fault. You're just doing your job. Plus, I would imagine that after doing this for a few hours several times, you come to meet LOTS of kids with fake IDs and not too many who unfortunately, became disfigured as a result of a car accident. While it definitely sucks for the girl, to be fair, she probably should have gotten a new ID...

"He deserves to be reprimanded for being unjustly rude to the customer." I suggest you read the FML again, #22; the OP basically said that the girl looked nothing like the photo in her ID. In a job where you see fakes all the time, give the OP a ******* break; when's the last time YOU ran into a bouncer who was looking to make friends with every college student handing him an ID?

Maybe her friends were lying. I mean, if she was trying to use a fake ID in the first place...

The OP definitely did not deserve it, he was just doing his job and she probably should've gotten her ID updated if she'd been so horribly disfigured.

i'd say the same thing. i don't want to get fired for getting an underage person in. "better safe than sorry." you don't come across ppl who've been in serious accidents very often
