The first day of the rest of your life (or not)
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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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 had to break up a fist fight between two female residents. I work in a retirement home. FML
Today, while working at my job at a nursing home, I slipped and fell. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just water. No, one of the residents had just had an "accident". FML
Today, it was my first day working at a dog boarding kennel. I got bit... by my coworker. FML
Today, I finished my shift at the nursing home. There was too much snow on the roads, so most of us had to stay overnight. Not only did I not get to go home, I also got stuck sleeping in the same bed that a resident had died in the night before. FML
Today, my job at a luxurious retirement community was terminated when I ran over an old lady with my work golf cart. FML
Today, it was my first day of work at my new job. I got dressed and arrived early, only to find out that the store had closed due to a power outage. Then I found out that the person who'd hired me had totally forgotten about hiring me anyway. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, after months of unemployment, I finally started at a new job. The building burnt down on my very first shift. FML
Today, I was working at the hospital front desk when an elderly man started hurling racial slurs at another visitor. A fight broke out, so I stepped in and forcibly separated the two. The old man tripped and crashed to the floor. Now I'm under investigation for "contributing to workplace violence." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Those same exact things happened to me on my first day at my new job. Except I was working at a bowling alley so it was much more peculiar...

Health care workers on average are higher up on the assault and verbal abuse chart than police officers and prison workers. The nursing home isn't a refuge from that lol. Pretty soon you'll be dealing with biters, explosive diarrhea and dementia patients who ********** for shock value (as if the dementia patient part isn't bad enough.) Good luck!
