Today, I walked into work, and the first question my boss asks me is "Are those your pajamas?" I was wearing my favorite outfit. FML

Today, I was in a hurry to get to work and I put on yesterday's jeans. While at my meeting an employee asked me if 'that' was mine and pointed to something on the floor next to me. Which was yesterday's underwear. FML

Today, I walked into our office and everyone started laughing. It turns out that I'd been the only one not in on the joke to come in dressed as a character from our favorite TV show. However, I'd dressed in normal work clothes. I’m the boss. FML

Today, I walked into work feeling confident in my new outfit. It wasn’t until lunchtime that a colleague pointed out the price tag hanging from my skirt. I’d been flaunting my ass's price all morning. FML

The old switcheroo

Today, I had a job interview. I didn't have any clothes suitable for the interview, so I went to the store early and bought some there. After the interview, I went to return the clothes, because they were so expensive. The hiring manager saw me. FML

Today, I accidentally left the tag on the new pants that I wore to work. Nobody had brought it to my attention for the whole day until finally, before I was about to go home, every single employee and my boss let me know by yelling in unison and laughing as I left the building. FML

Today, I went to my retail job to buy some clothing. As soon as I walked through the doors, my manager yelled at me for not being in appropriate work clothes. I tried to explain that I was off the clock but he was having none of it. I got written up. FML

This is only cool if you go into work dressed in a Max suit from Where The Wild Things Are, complete with pimp staff and crown.

I saw the movie on Friday night. LOVE LOVE LOVED IT. Spike Jonze deserves some awards for that. It's so amazing how he was able to expand so much on such a short story. I still laugh thinking of the stick as Douglas' arm after Carol tore it off. And the ending with the howling as he's sailing away absolutely tore me up inside. The soundtrack provided by Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs adds so much to it as well. :]

Considering that the OP sleeps naked, I can see the boss's concern. :)

I see what you did there. "I was wearing my favourite outfit". Geeze, I like my body too but there's no need to brag about it

Hehe, my favorite outfit is nude too, so I can relate. :D

The giant tattoo that said "Grade A Meat" might have been the problem. Gentleman's Not So Gentle Brothel clearly states no one can label themselves as meat.

Can we label ourselves as fish instead? Or eggs?

Today, I took a final for my law class. As I was taking the test, I noticed the girl on my left copying off me. I wrote all the wrong answers on my sheet while writing the correct answers on my desk hoping she would copy the wrong answers down. I forgot to write the correct answers on my test. FML
