Today, my boss and I were stacking boxes in the back room of the store. One of the boxes fell and hit me in the face, causing me to lose my glasses. My boss stepped on my glasses as she ran to check the box for broken merchandise, which I then had to pay for. FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, my boss tried to knock down a tower of empty boxes next to me while yelling, "Beat it, nerd!" A box hit my face and knocked my glasses off. I got bullied by my boss. FML
Today, I walked into the glass door of my boss’s cabin and broke my spectacles. Thank god for a backup pair, right? Wrong. I fell down the stairs and broke them too. FML
Today, my boss "borrowed" my prescription sunglasses off my desk. She crashed her car because they made her dizzy, and thinks I should pay for the damages. FML
Today, I broke my glasses. How did I break my glasses? A cow kicked me in the face at work. 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
Today, at work, I managed to hit myself in the face with a large sheet pan. The force made me back into a shelf, which knocked a box off the top, which hit me in the head and knocked me out-cold. I now have a fat lip, a sore head, and bruises all over from the fall. FML
Today, I was serving an incredibly rude woman at work. The ladder I had used to get her two pairs of shoes came crashing down, and hit my face and neck. She only bought one pair, and ten minutes later returned them after, complaining they were too expensive. FML
Today, while working at Walmart, I was walking the sales floor and passed the end of an aisle. I saw a customer coming at me from the corner of my eye, so I jumped backwards. I hit a display case, and watched it topple over before turning to apologize to the customer. It was a ladder. FML
Today, while scrubbing my car with the foam brush at a car wash, the hose for the brush came whipping around and smacked me hard in the side of the head, knocking off my glasses. I got disoriented from the blow and stepped on my glasses, completely smashing them. FML
Today, I was using the restroom at work when my glasses slipped off my face and landed right in the toilet. FML

Pay for the merchandise, and then demand your boss pay for your property she destroyed. If she balks, go over her head.

No, no, no. Why do so many employees think that they are personally responsible for expenses associated with workplace accidents? Damage to equipment, merchandise, or the facility is the responsibility of the business owner as are employee medical expenses resulting from the workplace accident.

Yeah it must really suck if you have to drive home. Your boss should pay for new glasses, they are more important than the merchandise which can wait.

Exactly. The company needs to just bill out the broken merchandise and move on. If this is true, the boss is on the wrong side of the law and the OP is a pushover...

I don't think it's legal to make you pay for that box. And your hurt face & glasses should be covered under workman's comp.

"stacking boxes" in the back of the store...sounds like a sexual innuendo

Exactly what I thought. Glad to know I'm not alone.

File a report against them and sue. Not only could you have been seriously injured they also broke your glasses and made you pay for the crap that fell
