Today, while at work, I was asked if I wanted to leave early. I said no and let my coworker go instead. Two hours later, I was punched in the face by one of my patients, with absolutely no warning or provocation. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my coworker got angry at a mean customer. She came to the back where I work and started punching the wall repeatedly. When I tried to intervene and stop her from breaking her hand, she punched me in the stomach and uppercut me. FML
Today, a patient, who is normally pretty chill, was being quite difficult for my workmates. They were whinging about him and I defended him, he's normally a sweet guy so something must be upsetting him. I went to chat with him, he punched me and called a useless a**hole. FML
Today, on the way to work, I was punched in the balls by a complete stranger. FML
Today, I was on my way to work behind a very slow car. At a red light, the lady came over and punched me in the face for following her too closely. We are coworkers and our desks are next to each other. FML
Today, while I was at work at a nursing home I was attempting to dress a woman for bed. She popped me a left hook and I had to ask the nurse to look at my jaw. After my nurse said I was okay she asked me to continue getting the woman dressed for bed. She hit me 5 more times. FML
Today, before I went to work, I wanted to kiss my wife goodbye while she was asleep, She punched me. FML
Today, I was at the grocery store, waiting in line to pay. A man jumped me from behind, and my first reflex was to brutally elbow him in the face. I soon discovered my attacker was one of the patients at the disability house at which I work, and he was trying to hug me. FML
Today, a customer at work became violent and started hitting me and my coworker. Not wanting him to get the shit beat out of us, I used a move that pinned the guy on the ground. The police came and he was arrested. I was then fired for assaulting a customer. FML
Today, I was in school when I got up to ask the teacher a question. For no reason, the guy sitting next to me punched me in the gut so hard I collapsed and saw stars. The teacher simply rolled her eyes and told me to get back to work. FML
Today, I got punched in the face by a girl for asking if she was okay after I had seen her crying. FML

Well, have you ever been giving a warning that someone is going to punch you? "Hey I'm gonna punch you!" "Hey, this one patient tends to punch people."

He's a psych worker. He let his co-worker go home early and then got punched in the face by a patient. If the OP had chosen to leave early, he co-worker would have gotten punched instead. So the OP was punished for being nice.

What is the point in writing the first half of this FML? It is completely irrelevant to the rest of the FML.

My thoughts exactly #3...the fml could actually read "today I worked my normal work hours and got punched in the face by a patient"...so what if he didn't go home early..he was supposed to be there anyway

No, but it wasn't provoked either. He could've just been bringing the guy some water and then got falcon punched in the face.

LOL It's always funnier if it involves a Falcon Punch.

I'm sorry I don't see the part of this story that says he's fat and if he is so what? Your weight doesn't reflect your personality. He let his co-worker go home early a sign of real generosity. Some patients on psych wards are unstable and I'm sure in the patients mind there was some reason to punch him but it certainly wasn't "oh wow this guys fat I think I'll punch him" I rest my case. :P

Thats what you need to expect with a job like that. Happens to me all the time.

FYL. Shit happens. Hopefully your patient got a needle stuck in his butt for it.

What does getting punched in the face have to do with leaving work early. It just sounds like a coincidence to me

Sure it is a coincidence... but had the OP left early, he/she wouldn't have been punched in the face at all.

these two events are independent of each other... shoulda just said "i got punched in the face today" but it still wouldnt be fml-worthy.
