Today, I went to a really important job interview. During it, I accidentally let out a burp, came down with nervous hiccups, and when I tried to quietly ease out some painful gas that was building up, it came out as a massive, rancid fart. I'll definitely be unemployed for a while yet. FML

Good job

Today, at a job interview, my interviewer excused himself to use the bathroom, so I took the chance to let out a tiny fart I'd been holding in. That tiny fart filled the whole room. When he came back, the guy literally stopped dead in his tracks and recoiled at the stench. Doubt I'll get that job. FML

The trumpet of success

Today, I went to an interview for a job I really wanted and am qualified for. I've been looking for months. This job was perfect; close to home and great pay. Needless to say I spent quite a while preparing. Everything was going great until I had to sneeze, which forced out a loud, long fart. FML

Too trusting

Today, I made the major mistake of trusting a fart during a job interview. Needless to say, I didn’t get the job. FML

Nerves

By ADH2000 - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I had a job interview. I stopped to take a pee in the lobby before I went in. I relaxed a bit too much at the urinal and accidentally farted. I chuckled about it like a 5 year-old for a few seconds. The guy who had been next to me at the urinal was the interviewer. FML

Recruitment hell

Today, while interviewing a potential candidate for a job, I farted during a moment of silence. Trying to cover it up, I blurted out, "Wow, this chair is squeaky!" The candidate just stared at me, and I'm pretty sure their chances of getting the job squeaked away, because I couldn't bear seeing them every day after that. FML

Today, while waiting for my interview to start, I tried to slip out a silent fart. It ended with shit running down my leg. FML

Today, I had a job interview. The interviewer blatantly farted as I sat down, then she sneered, "Making yourself comfortable, I see..." FML

Today, I got through to the phone interview stage for a great job. When the phone rang, I answered and suddenly, spontaneously, burped really loudly. The interviewer hung up. FML

"Was that a fart?" "No." "I can taste it. On my tongue."

Hopefully the interviewer has a sense of humor and is understanding...!

Excusing yourself to use the bathroom is an important job skill, and most places assume you have that skill.

This is proof that our bodies are capable of having a vindictive sense of humor! One of the several stated things happen upon my entering a Barnes & Nobles store, which sucks because I love reading. FYL OP!

If you are prone to nervous gas, try taking an OTC gas solution a little bit before an interview.

It is funny. As I was reading this, I figured this has to be a dude. Then I looked and saw that it was a female. Eeeuuuuwww!

What's the difference? A fart is a fart, no matter if it comes from a male or a female!

If I could give you a hug OP, I would (unless you're uncomfortable with hugs then comforting words will do just fine). That is awful but it is a natural bodily function that stinks unfortunately.

No emoter will change their mind on hiring someone because of a fart. They were funny in kindergarten, and they are funny now.

Ummmm... If the job was that important to you why not just hold it? Or, apologize profusely and excuse yourself. Even a child can hold their gas for a few minutes or excuse themselves to the bathroom.
