Today, for the first time in months, a potential employer was willing to give me a job. On my way out of the interview, I tripped over and broke a 1000 dollar glass table. FML

Today, I started a new job at a glass shop and my boss asked me to vacuum. I ended up tipping over and shattering the most expensive bong in the shop, which retailed at $3,000. FML

Today, I went in for an interview for my first ever job. Just seconds after meeting the boss, I slipped on the linoleum floor. I was wearing a skirt. FML

Today, I was at work, nonchalantly spinning my keys around my finger when they flew off and hit a glass cabinet. Broken glass showered passing customers. I don't think I'll have a job to go to tomorrow. FML

Today, I walked into the glass door of my boss’s cabin and broke my spectacles. Thank god for a backup pair, right? Wrong. I fell down the stairs and broke them too. FML

Today, I was getting ready for a party when I accidentally knocked my blender off the counter. After taking a half an hour to clean up all the glass, I went upstairs to get the spare blender I keep in the closet. I tripped, and broke the blender. I just applied for a waitressing job. FML

Today, I went to a job interview, and a guy ahead of me went to enter the building, only to walk face-first into a glass door. I rushed to help him up, and after we had a good laugh about it, I turned to walk inside, only to walk straight into the door as well. FML

Today, it was my first day at work as a waitress. The day ended with me owing my employers money, after I accidentally smashed an expensive bottle of wine on the floor. FML

Today, I dropped some glass at my job while putting it on the shelf. A shard bounced off the floor and went up my nose. FML

Damn, you're supposed to break the ice in the interview not the glass, op. Hopefully you made a lasting impression besides that and you get the job tho.

You can always skim that from your paycheque… presuming you did get the job. I'm just hoping it was a desk position, not so much moving.

On a positive note he probably is going to make you work until you repay for that table. So you still got a job,if that counts ?

Will if they spent that much on glass, they deserved it.

Holy shit. I hope you didn't fall on top of the glass shards and wind up with medical bills?? The business probably had insurance on the furnishings, so they shouldn't be able to make you pay to replace it... That said, it still probably hurts your odds of getting the job, unless it makes you way more memorable than anyone else that was interviewed.
