Today, I was at the movie theatre. I went to the bathroom, and was about to wipe my butt when I realized that where the toilet-paper dispenser should have been, there was a large hole. The woman in the next stall waved. FML

Data engineer struggles

By Jay - 09/06/2021 17:01 - Netherlands - Amsterdam

Today, I told my supervisor that I want to do the work I was hired to do, which is Data Engineer. He told me he doesn't have the workload for another data engineer, and needs someone with people skills. He's very happy with the current situation. I left my previous job because of the same problem. FML

Today, I went to the pharmacy to purchase a brace for my sprained wrist. My wife and I had recently ran out of KY lotion, so I decided to pick up a bottle while I was there. It didn't occur to me that these two items could be perceived as being related until the cashier began to giggle. FML

Today, I came home after being stuck in traffic needing to pee really badly. When I went to the bathroom, my boyfriend was on the toilet. I couldn't hold it longer, so I went into the woods behind our house and found a bush. Relieving myself, my butt started to itch. I was sitting in poison ivy. FML

@#29 I agree completley. However, I honestly don't use public bathrooms. I always go before I leave home, except if it's an emergency then I will. But I'll examine it to make sure its clean.. and I'll put TP on the seat.

You're weird nikki. I disagree with your points in other threads and while you're of course welcome to your own opinion, I find it hard to believe that you think shitting your own pants is the less offensive outcome. You just seem to have a really bizarre, introverted view on life. Yes, this is a personal attack. Die in a fire.

# 29 I totally agree! I always look to make sure I have toilet paper. I also put toilet paper on the seat before I sit so I don't sit in piss and I don't sit on the contaminated seat thousands of butts have been on.
