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
Today, I was at a bar, when a heavily drunk guy came up to me and slurred "Fuucckkk lady, your face... not even with beer goggles!" FML
Today, I paid $50 for a haircut. Halfway through, I realized the hairdresser was drunk. FML
Today, I told a customer that we don't do refunds. He responded by throwing his wallet at my face and accusing me of stealing it. 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
Today, I was dining out with friends. I saw a mom instructing her young child to go to empty tables and take whatever cash had been left. I discreetly told the manager. He confronted the woman and pointed right at me. As she was being thrown out, she tossed a very heavy mug at my head. It hit me. FML
Today, a completely drunk girl walked across the bar and punched me in the face because I was wearing the same dress as her, and her boyfriend had said it looked better on me. While I was screaming at her for being a stupid bitch, she puked all over me, wiped her mouth, and laughed before she passed out. FML
Today, I went to my favorite bar after work for a drink. On my way to the porch out back, I didn't realize the sliding glass door was shut, and walked straight into it. I was stone cold sober, but the bartender refused to believe me, and cut me off before my first beer. FML
Today, I learned a co-worker called and awoke my boss at 3 a.m. to complain that I'd been "rude" to him. All I'd done was make a disapproving face because he'd been drinking and he was slobbering drunk, and wanted to charge his purchase to his employee account, a definite no-no when not on the clock. FML
Today, I caught my stylist in the mirror attempting to get his colleague to laugh by spitting on my head while washing my hair. FML

Tell him that dipping his hair in the drink isn't good enough entertainment to get freebies. Pour the whole drink on his head, and then give him a free one. Now, that's entertainment!

Does anyone know what 'blindsided' means in Australia? Here you'd say that he blindsided him BY putting the hair in the drink. This post says it's something he did AFTER he put the hair in the drink. Slightly different so I'm wondering if there's a different meaning to it there.

I thought it meant OP got hit/punched without expecting it.

The first thing I thought of was a car crash but I know that couldn't be what they meant.

Yes, "surprised by" and "car accident" are the only two ways I've heard it. I suspect that #17 is correct, though. I can see how it could be used to mean a punch.

I thought blindsided meant to be surprised by something, that's all I've ever heard it used for. Puts a less violent spin on the fml if that's all OP meant.

Today, in this supposed information age, it's ironic that folks don't just check a dictionary. Oxford, Merriam-Webster and dictionary.com all give good definitions of blindside. FML

that's awful! nobody else can buy that drink though..

Why would anyone buy a drink someone else already had? I've never been at a bar out restaurant and thought, "That lady seems to be enjoying her beer; I'll see if they'll sell it to me."

When, exactly, are bartenders supposed to cut people off?

If he is drunk you shouldn't give him one anyway...
