Today, at work in a call center, I went into my locker to get my pain pills from a recent surgery. When I opened the bottle, half my pills spread all over the floor. My boss walked by and said, "I knew it!" FML

Today, I tore a muscle in my back. At the hospital, I was prescribed some pain medication. My husband got me settled at home, with everything I needed within reach, and left for work. As I picked up the bottle to take the first pill, I knocked it on the floor. It rolled under the couch. FML

Nice first impression.

Today, I didn't know I had a pill stuck in my throat until I coughed and it flew across the table, narrowly missing the weird guy sitting across from me in the break room. Turns out that weird guy is my new supervisor. FML

Today, someone at work took my delicate medication out of the fridge to make room for their lunch. Now my medication has expired. FML

Today, my boss called and yelled at me because he said I was "spotted" out after I called off sick. I was out getting the medicine the doctor had just prescribed me. FML

Today, I opened the cabinet to take a pill for my headache. After taking the pill, I turned around and smashed my head on the open cabinet door. FML

Today, in preparation for a presentation at work, I decided to take a handful of vitamins to fight my cold. As I was putting the bottles away, I noticed one of them was a laxative. FML

Today, half asleep, I dropped my pill before I could take it. I quickly picked it up and washed it down. Five hours later, I just found my pill on the ground. What did I swallow? FML

Today, my boss asked me to pick up some supplies for a presentation. I entered the store in the middle of an armed robbery, was knocked to the floor, and had my cash, phone and credit cards stolen. When I told my boss the story, she said, "So were you able to get the binder clips?" FML

Today, while taking pills for a headache, I threw my head back to help get the pills down, and in the process, whacked it against the brick windowsill behind me. FML

Today, at work, I went to place a small item on a shelf. The shelf fell on me, trapping my hand. While lifting it, the top shelf fell against my chest and the products all dumped on my face. I then realized the shelves were only held up by zip ties. FML

Tell him to buy a trampoline since he likes jumping to conclusions so much

Surely your boss knew you were recovering from surgery right? Maybe he was just joking.

At least you know what he/she thought of you? I don't know if your pills made you act funny for them to be suspicious or not but just explain the situation. If you get fired or anything just go to the higher ups. :)

Your boss knew you were taking pain pills for a recent surgery. Hopefully he alerted the media as well.

If he didn't know you were recovering from a surgery, which is unlikely, then just explain the situation to him and hopefully he will understand. If not, well you can't fix stupid.

Those pills have been prescribed to you, he can't say shit. All he has to do is call the doctor that the pills were prescribed from if he doesn't believe you. Which he should have known considering you probably had to take some time off from work to have the surgery done. He would had to have granted you time off from the surgery so he can't be jumping to conclusions about you. Don't worry op, brush it off and take care of yourself!
