Today, I got fired from my job as a postman, which I started yesterday. They fired me because I failed to deliver a bunch of papers to a road that no longer exists. FML

Neither rain nor sleet or non existant roads will stop a Postman from his appointed rounds!

They must be Super Postmen where you live. =]

actually from where I'm at, there was a mailman who was fired for delivering three times as much, three times faster than all the other mailmen. so he was forced by his supervisors to go home before meeting the required daily time spent delivering mail. and was subsequently fired because after being forced to leave early, each day was recorded as him not even showing up because he was force home early. long story short, the union hates dedicated workers...

Postal carriers are given the opportunity to use paid time off if they finish their route early. So if they get done an hour early they can take an hour PTO. Otherwise they can case mail for the following day or help someone else who is behind.

So did you go a postal and gun down your office afterwards?? I hear that the standard response of laid off postal workers.

Well of course, they go "postal."

Since when did postmen deliver papers? paperboy/ delivery man = papers postman = err oh yeah POST I smell BULLSHIT

Not if you get a subscription to a paper other than the normal one for your town...I think. Besides, "papers" could have just meant things not in an envelope, like coupons and flyers and shit.

I did no such thing! :) It was phrased that way when I read it. And maybe he meant he just started doing it alone yesterday.

It's the **** subscriptions for the UFO redneck watchers that used to be there until they decided to demolish the post and build a desert. At least, that's the universal suspicion 'a bunch of papers' brings to mind. All these weight loss ads are getting to my head. It's like they won't leave until Intoxicunt burns all that fat. I hear Ray thinks it's a turnoff.

FYL because you got fired. YDI because you should have done what you were told. :)

Some of these things are completely ridiculous, which makes me think that some are fake. Is everyone's boss as much as an asshole as all of the ones mentioned in FML posts? :)
