Today, I got head lice, so I went to a store to buy medicated shampoo. When checking out the cashier saw my shampoo and asked me to leave immediately to protect the other customers. He didn't let me buy the shampoo. FML

Black Friday
70% off something you didn't need, a stampede and a cart that crashes at checkout. Thanks, Black Friday.
Today, I needed to buy a new helmet. When I got to the sports shop, there was only one left in my size and preferred color. Thirty minutes after buying it, my head starts itching. Turns out I paid $40 for lice. FML
Today, my boss called me into his office. I thought I was getting promoted because my sales had been really high lately. My boss shut his door behind me and asked me if I could comb his hair with a lice comb to get rid of his lice. I had to do it to keep my job. FML
Today, at my retail job, I tried on one of our hats. My co-worker told me I shouldn't because I could get lice. I laughed it off and told her I didn't believe her. Man, do I believe her now. FML
Today, I went to get a haircut. I have a pretty bad case of dandruff, so whenever I get one, a lot of it shows. My hairstylist called to her nearby friend twice, then looked at my hair and said, "Blech" under her breath. I got glares when I walked out. FML
Today, as I was waiting in line at the check out, some guy came up behind me, plucked a hair out of my head, and ran off with it. FML
Today, I was tutoring kids at an elementary school. One kid messed up my hair. I said, "Why'd you do that??" He said, "I have lice, now you have lice too!" FML
Today, this guy I like let me wear his favorite baseball hat that he never takes off. I returned it to him later, only to find out I have lice. FML
Today, the checkout guy at my local store asked me if I had my hair cut. I answered and started talking about my hair, and he gave me a really weird look. He was talking to his friend, who I hadn't noticed in the queue behind me. FML
Today, I got a call from my younger brother's school to pick him up immediately. He had a test today, but he had the brilliant idea that by telling everyone he had head lice, he could go home. I had to leave work to pick him up, and now I have to take him to a doctor so they can see if he can go back. FML
Today, I discovered that head lice shampoo can remove the dye from your hair. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I'm pretty sure he's not allowed to do that. You left without asking for the manager?

Here's an idea. Instead of using shampoo to get it out, get someone to comb your hair with a wide-toothed comb or a brush to get the lice out. Make sure to do this outside, or you may have lice running around your house! :)

As a cashier, I know that this kind of shit is generally NOT tolerated. You should have reported him!

was it the only cash register? i would have picked up the shampoo and went to a different cash register, hopefully all the cashiers arent as idiotic!

mix 2 parts home kerosene (the blue stuff) with 3 parts cheap shampoo. Shake thoroughly. Wash as normal, but leave it in to soak for half an hour before rinsing out... wash with usual shampoo to try and mask the smell... lice and nits should be dead :) I agree, the pharmacist is a......... (insert insult here)

umm if you were too embarrassed to admit it or really needed to fool that idiot, you could've said it was for your kid brother or something like that.

That's so stupid; you're trying to buy the stuff to protect the public (as well as yourself), yet you're harming the public by trying to buy the stuff?

I am positive that you cannot do that if you are a cashier. Op, go back and demand the manager come out.
