Today, I went to pick up my paycheck at the convenience store I work at. While there, two frat boys came in and bought seventeen 30 packs of beer. That comes to about $300. They spent more at the store in one day than I get paid in two weeks. FML

Its really easy to make money if you're throwing a party. Watch this: $300 for 510 beers = $0.588 per beer. Average person at a party drinks about 5 beers or so, but for conservative estimates' sake, call it 6. That's $3.52 worth of beer per person at the party, which you can charge $5 at the door to get in. $5 - $3.52 = $1.48 profit per person, multiplied by 85 people at the party (510 beers / 6 beers per person), gives you a net income for the night of $125.80, and said party can be held 3 nights a week (Thursday - Saturday), giving you a weekly income of $377.40, which is higher than you make. Go to college, learn math, make friends, and you too can figure out how to make more than $300 per week.

Bro they were having a party or stocking up. I doubt that the money to buy that beer came from two dudes. If you get upset by the fact that people spend money to have a party, man I dunno what to say.

but... how is this an fml? You're the one working what amounts to part time.

i work in a store too, i know the feeling :/ rich ass bastards! :P

Ya know, if it weren't for those frat guys and customers like them, they wouldn't need to pay you to be a cashier there.

Exactly. Hating people that make your employment possible is stupid.

ehm... did it ever occure to you that they might have saved for that for a while? + don't wine i get $104 a month

you make shit money. good old Alaska with it's 7.75 min wage but that's probably cause heating houses here costs 3 cars during the long ass winters!!!

you know what I really ******* hate is the fact that SOO many people like the OP post a bunch of stupid ******* FML sceniaros where their life isnt really ******, and they are just being a whiny bitch and trying to get peoples attention. get over it.

Did you ever consider that maybe that's all of the frat's money put together to by the beer? They might not even be that rich. And where the hell do you work at that you make less than $200 a month. I work part time in a retail store, and I make between $375 and $450 every two weeks. Maybe you need to work more hours.

punch yourself in the face and die

Thanks #77, said what I was thinking. I guess people just don't like them, so they take it out on people who have parties/get invited to parties...
