Today, my boss asked me if I could work on Valentine's Day because there was no chance of me having a date. She's right. FML

Today, my boss asked me to pick up an extra shift. I said I couldn't because I have a date. He told me I didn't need to lie and to just say no next time. FML

Today, I had a meeting at work. My boss was going around saying that she tries to give time off to the other managers so they can spend time with their family and significant others. She looked at me and said she doesn't for me because I have no one special to spend time with. FML

Today, the coworker I have a crush on left halfway through the busiest shift of the week, and now I have to work it alone. I eventually found out that she left to go on a date with her new boyfriend. FML

Today, my girlfriend is locked in the bathroom crying because I didn't buy her anything for Valentine's Day, even though Friday, at her suggestion, we agreed not to exchange gifts because both of our birthdays are a week away. FML

Today, I realized the reason I was asked to babysit 3 weeks ago for Feb 14 was because the old married couple with kids safely assumed that I wouldn't have a Valentine. FML

Today, my boss texted me to say the office was closed because of the snow. I begged him to let me go in anyway because I had nothing to do all day. I have no life, friends or hobbies. FML

Valentine's day is considered a big enough holiday for employees to have a day off? C: cool now if they could only do the same for Halloween

You can be the Jesus of hookers. ------------ @#7: Jesus was the Jesus of hookers (Luk 7:36-50). Back to topic: OP: I assume you mean working the evening of. I guess it's not a day job, or even a night job where you get off at 9 pm? There would still have been mucho partying to do after 9, in which case it wouldn't have been an FML.

Did the boss actually say or imply that you won't have a date or are you so insecure with your singleness that you're assuming that is why you had to work on V Day?
