Today, I repaired a boiler for a wealthy guy in a big house. While there, I fixed a leaking tap for free. When I went to leave, the man slipped something into my shirt pocket and said, "Have a drink on me." When I got to my truck, I discovered that he'd given me a tea bag. FML

Today, I thought it would be a good idea to sneak out of work early and pay a little visit to the pub. I ended up staggering home, drunkenly making myself a nacho cheese dorito milkshake with the blender, then promptly puked my guts out all over the kitchen table. FML

People of Walmart

Today, at work as a cashier, a guy came up with a cart full of stuff and it took me 10 minutes to ring it all up. When I told him his total, he felt his pockets, said, "Oh shit, I forgot my wallet!" and walked off. He left about 15 bags worth of things for me to put back. FML

@ 76, I feel sorry for you guys sometimes. When I visited the states I'd tip $10-20 on anything, except if I got shitty service, then you only got $5. I'm a student who lives out of home, so I am by no means, rich.

how is this an fml... really? Like if you decide to fix something, 'free of charge' don't expect someone to give you a tip, even if they're rich. No matter what you get you should be thankful. And tea is good for you- you shouldn't be spending your money on booze anyway!
