Today, I went to my boyfriend's house to meet his parents. They informed me they were lawyers throughout the meal, which explained the gorgeous house. My boyfriend excitedly told them I was promoted manager at my job. They asked where I work. I work at Burger King. FML

He EXCITEDLY said you were promoted to manager. He's proud of you! YDI because it isn't bad. Don't be bummed.

Hey, you gotta start somewhere. Hopefully his parents understand that. Odds are they were in similar positions early on, too.

the OP is most likely not 15 years old, which is why this is a FML. working at burger king at 18 is even embarrassing.

working as a manager at BK at the age of 18 is not embarrassing, especially considering they would have just finished school. And why is it so embarrassing? she has a job, which is a pretty damn good thing in this economy.

Everyone has to start somewhere. If nothing else, they should be impressed that such a large company has found her worthy of being a manager- which also shows that you are able to stick with a position for long enough to be promoted like that. Not an FML, I think.

if you think this is a FML, why don't you get another job?

oh & also it's an FML because you don't have to DO anything to be a manager at Burger King. the average manager only makes 8$ too. hahaha

Honestly, like many have said before, it isn't bad. He obviously said it proudly as you are achieving something at your job and showing good potential! It is NOT embarrassing to work at a place like BK to get by if you're still sorting out your future, going to school, or are too young for a 'real' job. Hold onto your contacts there because somebody likes you and will give you good reference for when you're looking to move up the food chain. Hold onto him too until he ***** up because he's obviously proud of you.

honestly thats not that big of a deal depending on how old you are. if youre still in high school then good for you that means you are a hard working kid. but if youre already out of college or something then thats kind of a FML. but thats not that bad, you shouldnt feel insecure that just because they are rich and successful that whatever you do is inferior. also you should be glad that youre going out with someone rich lol
