Dogs, Injury and Work: Snappy

Snappy

Today, at work as a groomer's assistant, my boss said something that I didn't catch as I went to take a leash off a dog. I looked at my boss and said, "What?" To which she replied, "Be careful, he bites." I now have a two-inch gash on my finger from a 6lb fluffy Maltese. FML

Today, I was fired for having a haircut that was 'inappropriate for the workplace'. I have alopecia. My boss told me to stop making up excuses. FML

Today, while at my job as a hostess, I was seating a couple and their adorable little girl. I tried to ask how old she was, but what came out was, "Aww, what breed is she?" FML

Today, I found out that mishearing my boss and laughing at what I thought he said can make him think I'm high and nearly force me to submit to a drug test. FML

Today, I went to see my sister and took a couple of dog biscuits for her dog. I forgot about them until later when I realised I had a hole in my pocket, near my crotch. The dog pointed this out by chomping my balls to get to the biscuits. My attempts to remove him resulted in more vigorous chewing. FML

Today, my coworker pointed to our nervous new intern and asked who he was. I jokingly said, "Can't you tell? He's our new slave." I then quickly realized how bad that sounded, given the intern is black. FML

Today, I was out walking my dog. I was throwing a stick in the lake so he could go get it (he loves swimming). A friend called me. After I was done calling, another friend came by, and we talked for a while. When my dog barked, I accidentally threw my iPhone into the water instead of his stick. FML

Today, my boss's obese bully of a grandson had a seizure. Being the only physician around, I had to rush in to tend to him. Except it wasn't a seizure as such. My daughter had found my taser and used it on him. FML

Welcome back

By pixie_pix13 - This FML is from back in 2019 but it's good stuff

Today, I came back to work after being out for a week. As I walked to the back of the store, I threw my hands up and yelled, "I'm back bitches". Right after I said it, I noticed my boss was behind me. I was then taken to the office and wrote up for foul language on my first day back. FML

I used to be a groomer's assistant, trust me it's always the little fluffy ones that'll be the most trouble.

I HATE those tiny ass dogs. Theres like a billion of them in the trendy ass neighborhood I live in in LA. I just wanna drop kick them all. They are so annoying but not any more annoying than their stuck up owners who I'd like to kick too! Dogs DO NOT belong in the grocery store!

Ouch. You should have listened. You learned the hard way this time - let there not be a next one. YDI.

In the grooming room, there are 3 blow dryers, a hydrosurge (a pump mechanism that basically "power-washes" the dogs) and two high-powered hand-held dryers, not to mention dogs barking constantly. Unless you have super-human hearing, most people have to repeat themselves two or three times to be heard when any of the aforementioned equipment is turned on. I'm not trying to make excuses, merely pointing out that it's very difficult to hear anything at all there.

It was as I was taking the leash off the dog when she warned me. By the time I asked her to repeat herself (which was right away), the dog was already going for my hand. As I'm sure many people know, these things happen in a fraction of a second!

You should have just killed the dog - it doesn't deserve to live after a stunt like that.

I loathe tiny dogs. This is why I have great danes (who would probably just steamroller you with love rather than bite you). Everyone is petrified to death of them. All they want is a hug :( On the other hand, a friend had a psychotic yorkie that liked to deglove your fingers (or try to). I've never met such a bloodthirsty little mongrel. Yet every time we went on a walk, everyone was all over it. My clothing was frequently flecked with blood because of this.

i never understand why owners drop of their misbehaved tiny monsters for the groomers to deal with. If you have enough forethought to tell the groomer your POS dog bites then have the presence of mind to bring a muzzle for the little beast. I loathe small yappy dogs they are almost all inbred little monsters and the owners don't correct their behavior because they're so small they think they cant hurt anything. I live in a nice neighborhood and every woman and teenage girl seems to have one of these little dogs.
