Today, I found out that my company was throwing a work picnic. When i showed up, I realized that it had been planned months ago and I wasn't supposed to find out. The entire restaurant was there greeting me with faces of utter shock. Nothing says 'you suck' more than being 'that guy' at your job. FML

For #16...obviously, the OP didn't know it was planned to exclude him, so calling him "selfish" for going when he wasn't aware he wasn't invited is wrong. At any rate, they were rude to plan a company event and exclude an employee, not to mention stupid, as it was inevitable he would find out at some point. While the OP may be "that guy" that's not an excuse for his co-worker's rudeness and selfishness. But at least he's aware of it; maybe he can talk to someone and find out what's going on. And maybe it's less about him and more about his co-workers (I've seen that happen). Who knows?

Well, why are you 'that guy'? Maybe YDI because you're an ignorant prick. If not, FYL.

The guy's probably an awkward dork who no ones wants to associate with. Every workplace has one.

#65- If you think ur opinion is important enough to reply to number 1 or 2, you should make sure you know what you're talking about first.. ITS NOT AT A RESTAURANT! There is no need for quotation marks when writing "picnic" because it REALLY WAS A PICNIC!! I don't know why it's that hard to understand that somebody could work at a restaurant...so when walking into the "Company Picnic" would refer to the whole picnic as the "entire restaurant." ******* GODD.. I am slowly losing faith in humanity every single day because of how stupid they must obviously be. If you can not figure this FML out in your head on your own then you must seriously be lacking some kind of brain function.

When you discover a conspiracy of silence against you, the only respectable thing to do is join it.

oh my god you ******* retard. how do you have anything without plans? were talking about Red Robin here. first you have to find people from other red robins to fill in for the people who aren't going to be there. then you have to get the funds to throw the picnic. that takes some planning wouldn't you think? you can't just shut down a restaurant for a day. ******* asshole.
