Today, I got turned down by my dream job because their rival company happens to be called my exact name. I'm now known as "The Spy". FML

Today, I had an interview for a pretty interesting job. Everything was going smoothly until I referred to their company by the wrong name, not once, but three times. They politely corrected me each time, but I could see the resentment in their eyes, especially because it was the name of their main competitor. I probably won't be getting the job, huh? FML

That's a pretty cool new name you have though... Side note: dick move by the company to not hire you for that reason. Stupid.

Uh, probably not, since OP specifically says they didn't get the job... It's like right there in the FML, man.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess your name is John Lewis.
