Today, a crazy homeless guy got angry because I wouldn't sell him a bottle of vodka at half price. He got so irrationally mad, he put his fingers down his throat, and threw up on my checkout counter. FML

Today, an intoxicated gentleman stumbled into my shop requesting alcohol, which I do not sell. When I informed him of this, he expressed his disappointment by urinating on the floor. FML

I'm not paid enough for this shit

Today, near the end end of my shift as a bartender, a drunk man stumbled into my bar, got upset because I refused to serve him, puked into my tip jar, then offered me half a pack of cigarettes in exchange for sex. FML

Today, I was working the night shift when a guy came in smelling like alcohol. He kept muttering his order, so I leaned over the register to hear him better. My ear now smells of vomit. FML

Today, I started working my crappy, minimum-wage retail job at a local electronics store. An hour into my shift, my boss sent me to scrub out a discount bin, after some drunk cunt in his teens staggered into the place yelling, and puked his guts into it. What a life. FML

Today, I had to decline the sale of alcohol to a man who reeked of booze and was practically falling asleep at my till. He tried to convince me that he wasn't drunk, he was just blind. Still refusing to sell him the beer, he started yelling at me, accusing me of "being racist against the 'blinds'". FML

He's a good man

By no booze, no boyfriend - 04/06/2013 20:31 - United States

Today, my now ex-boyfriend called me from jail, expecting me to bail him out. He'd tried to buy a load of booze at the liquor store and came up short by ten cents. The cashier refused to be short-changed, and he figured the only reasonable reaction was to punch her in the face. FML

Today, while walking to work, I saw a homeless guy with a funny "NEED MONEY 4 BOOZE" sign, so I gave him a few spare dollars for his humor. On my way back home, he was out cold on the sidewalk with several empty bottles beside him. Whoops. FML

Another happy customer

By SupermarketSally - 25/11/2016 13:45 - Australia - Perth

Today, a customer threw a bottle of milk at me because we'd moved our smoke counter 6 months earlier during our renovations. Moved it five metres to the right that is. He marched out of the store, then marched back, grabbed the milk from my hands, threw $5 at me and then left again. FML

Today, a homeless man asked me for money in a train station bathroom. When I told him I had no money he left. He then returned only to pour a bottle full of urine on my head while I was in the stall. I use a metro card. I honestly had no money. FML

Could you imagine what would've happened if he was trying to buy cocaine?

More like after he cleaned that shit.

The worst is when your boss says that you have to clean it up. Had a bad toilet situation similar to this when I worked at Mc Donald's. I think I'd just quit instead.

Well, to be fair, someone have to clean it up. It's not going to go away just because it wasn't your fault.

Unless I'm a professional cleaner, I am not paid enough to clean up someone else's bodily fluids.

Not even professional cleaners are paid enough for that either.

Why are so many FMLs about homeless people?

Kers3054 16

Friday 4 March 2016 2:51

Maybe because they're usually desperate and will do crazy things?

SpyroMello 29

Friday 4 March 2016 4:07

Because a lot of them do shit like this. Not all of them are sane, most are drunkards are on drugs, so when they don't get what they want it's usually weird shit like this that happens. Just imagine what cops must go through!!

Being homeless isn't a state most people would choose. A number of homeless people (though certainly not all) became homeless at least in part because they're mentally ill, and it sounds like the one OP encountered may fit into that category. But being homeless can also _bring_ mental illness, because having nowhere to live and being treated like dirt for that by so many people can be flat-out depressing.

Did he end up getting the vodka?

@9: I agree it's scary how easy it is to lose everything to bad circumstance, and being homeless doesn't always mean you deserved your situation. But the drunkard in this story is a prick. And he can't just blame it on the booze. Alcohol doesn't make people do crazy shit, it brings out the REAL YOU that you've been hiding. So yeah, he is homeless for a reason.
