Today, because I was the only manager scheduled, I went into work despite feeling sick to my stomach. While sitting down with a customer, I got the urge to throw up and tried to hold it back. Instead I vomited in my mouth, instinctively swallowed and started choking in front of the customer. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got to work feeling slightly unwell. A couple of hours later, an extremely attractive customer came to my till, at which point my body decided it would be a good idea to vomit last night's dinner all over myself and the customer. FML
Today, during my shift at work, I started to feel really sick and started throwing up. While I had my head in a bag, I had several customers ask me for directions, and another customer abuse me for my lack of service. FML
Today, I choked on water so hard that I threw up and shat myself. FML
Today, I was feeling sick but went into my waitressing job because I'd already missed 3 days this week. I was dizzy and managed to spill a tray of drinks all over the customers. Then, when their food was done, I tripped and spilled hot chili all over the man's lap. FML
Today, I had such a violent coughing fit that my stomach emptied itself all over the floor while at my sales job. FML
Today, I was taking the bus back to my university campus, having left work early feeling sick. While on the bus I started retching. I managed to hold it in for a while, but as I stood up to get off the bus, I started puking through my mouth and nose. This was in front of twenty other passengers. FML
Today, I vomited so hard into the toilet that the water splashed back into my face. I instinctually moved away only to finish puking on the floor. FML
Today, while working at the hospital, I had a patient with a blocked bowel. It was so bad, feces were entering into her stomach. While leaning down to talk with her, she threw up. I was both vomited and defecated on at the same time. FML
Today, while rushing to a big marketing presentation, I started feeling ill in my car. I was stuck in traffic, and before I could get my window open I threw up all over my suit. All I had were some tissues to try to clean the mess before presenting to a full boardroom. FML
Today, out of nowhere, I started violently choking on my own saliva and shat myself in the process. FML

Demand a goddamn raise immediately.

Why the hell should OP demand a raise?

Although I don't think OP should "demand a goddamn raise immediately", because that' ll get them fired in the spot, I do think this is promotion worthy. I think OP should have a (professional) conversation with their boss and tell them that they're committed enough to swallow their own vomit just to serve customers. That should get OP up there fast.

I am now holding back my OWN vomit after reading this. What a gross and awkward situation. Truly sorry, OP.

Sorry Op, but YDI for not calling to see if any other managers could cover for you and going into work when you're sick.

I don't know why you're getting thumbed down, I agree with you. You should never go to work sick especially if you have to deal with customers face to face. You risk getting them sick and also getting your coworkers sick. And on top of that you'll be distracted and tired so it will affect your performance.

So, you're saying anyone who happens to feel sick and throws up is 'disgusting'? Hon, don't tell me you've never been sick and had to release some puke before.
