Today, the satellite radio at work went on the fritz, playing one song over and over. Management wouldn't turn it off, though, because then customers would miss out on all those upcoming-sale announcements that run intermittently. Meanwhile, I got to listen to "Footloose" for eight hours. FML

Today, at my job at the mall, our music malfunctioned and now will only play the same three songs over and over again. Our manager won't let us turn it off because "the customers won't notice". FML

Today, at work, I was forced to listen to the Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers Christmas album on repeat for 8 hours. FML

Today, I lost my earbuds on the subway to work, so I had to listen to my boss's terrible music all day. FML

Today, I forgot my headphones at home. When I got to work I found out that today was also the day the band next door had decided to practice their only song for 8 hours. FML

Today, I was in the car going to a concert with my family. I was listening to my iPod, when the wheel broke and I couldn't change the song. So for the rest of the trip, I was stuck either listening to my parents arguing, or Don't Worry, Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin on repeat. FML

Today, at my workplace, a TV was installed just above my register at work which plays the same mind-numbingly awful 13 second ad on loop for the duration of our latest sale. The sale lasts for what are going to be three very long weeks. FML

Today, at work, I put my earphones in to listen to some music. An hour later, I realised I never pressed play. FML

Today, while I was at work, a co-worker watched while some kid stole the radio out of my car. FML

Today, I arrived at my college dorm. To help me sleep, I listened to my local radio from my phone. Little did I know, they turn off the wifi for part of the night, and hours of music were streamed onto my phone. Guess who now owes the phone company all my money. FML

"If I could turn back time…"

By inappropes - This FML is from back in 2019 but it's good stuff

Today, I came into work early to clean equipment, with my headphones on, singing to myself. I lost track of time, and wound up with the entire office watching me belt tunes out. FML

Her musical repertoire is pretty much the same. Which, in my opinion, isn't great.

The talent needed to do what lady gay guy does is on par with doing a jumping Jack.

well I'd rather listen to footloose than listening to the same top 40 pop country songs for 10 hours a day all week.

Yes FYL indeed. I remember when I worked at Fazoli's and all they would play was like the same 6 songs over and over again. During the weekends, I worked 9 hour shifts, and omg, that was hell. I can't imagine how painful it would be ot have to listen to only one song for 8 hours. FYL for sure.
