Today, I have been having to work in a residence of people with disabilities when I normally do community work with disabled people and usually enjoy it. I have seen not one, but two elderly mens' genitals today when my actual job would never require me to see any. I didn’t sign up for this. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I once again had to clean up a shower and bathroom covered in feces, because of client with incontinence. It smelt so bad that I couldn’t hide my reaction; the client saw my face and I could see the embarrassment on theirs. I spent the rest of the day feeling like an asshole. FML
Today, at my job as a supermarket manager, I had to break up a fight over a handicapped parking spot, in which an elderly man nearly got beaten over the head with a prosthetic leg. This wasn't what I expected when I was told I'd been promoted. FML
Today, I decided to use the disabled toilet in work to get a little extra privacy while I did my business. The cleaners who unlocked the door from the outside and barged in on me were nice and waited until I finished to apologize and explain there were complaints the door had been locked for days. FML
Today, I was cleaning the bathrooms at work. An older gentlemen came in and needed to use it. He said to me "Oh no, PLEASE stay, just don't look." I don't get paid enough for this. FML
Today, I finally got a new job. Now, instead of dealing with trashy, rude young adults all day, I get to deal with self-entitled, berating old people all day. I'm not sure which is worse. FML
Today, I had to clean human excrement at work when the fitting room turned into the shitting room. FML
Today, it was my first day at my new job at a nursing home. Not only were we short staffed, two residents passed away, and I got beaten up by an old man. FML
Today, I was at work at my local hospital. I went to the toilet to empty my bladder; the door was half open so I assumed it was empty. Upon opening the door, I was greeted with a half naked old man, who then yelled at me and violently shat himself, all over the walls and floor. FML
Today, at my hotel job, I had to help a drunk naked guy back into his room. Earlier today, a fat old guy wearing only briefs came down to the lobby drunk as hell. I used to like my job. FML
Today, it was a normal day working as a medical receptionist, until I told a wheelchair-bound patient to “take a seat” out of habit. She responded with, “I brought my own!” I have never felt more embarrassed. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

As a community and facility carer... yes you did. It goes with the territory.

That’s nothing. I once saw an elderly man in a gown take a dump in the corridor. He the proceeded to shape it into a little castle. When he was done he went back to his room, leaving a trail of shit behind him.

I guess when they said you'd be "working for tips," you didn't expect it to be so literal.

i’m assuming since you “didn’t sign up” for a residental community, you usually work in an “at-home” basis. but since the covid outbreak, your employer has adjusted your work load appropriately. with that being said, you are and HAVE BEEN an essential worker since taking this job. be thankful that you’re still able to work, make some sort of paycheck, and make in impact in peoples lives. unlike the millions of people who have had to apply for unemployment in the last several weeks.

Times have changed. You're going to see the genitals of many people in the near future. Someone has to do it, and right now, you're one of them. Yay!
