Today, I was called an assortment of names and was almost followed home by a crazy bitch. Why? Because I stated that it was unsanitary for her to bring her dog to a grocery store. She clearly disagreed. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, a crazed woman started screaming at me at the dog park. She was saying that I was cruel and unfit to be a pet owner, and she ought to kick my ass. My dog's ears and tail were cropped before I even got him. He’s a rescue and came to me like this. She wouldn’t listen and followed me to my car. FML
Today, I saw an elderly woman struggling to reach the top shelf in my local grocery store, so I went over and asked if she needed help. She then accused me of flirting with her and had me escorted from the property. FML
Today, I got bitched out by some lady in a Walmart because I looked at her funny while she was on the phone, loudly bragging about "slapping the shit out of" her kids. FML
Today, I went to an over-crowded grocery store. As I reached the front of a long line, I noticed that a cart had been abandoned in everybody's way. Trying to be helpful, I moved it to the side. An enormous woman then shoved me and yelled at me for "pushing her property around." FML
Today, I went to the supermarket with my husband and kids. A crazy old man started yelling at us and challenged us to fight him outside. Security had to escort us to our car. Why was he so mad? Our cart momentarily blocked his path to the beef jerky samples. FML
Today, I was stopped in the grocery store by a stranger, who berated me, quite loudly, for going out in public in my pajamas. I had just gotten off work and was wearing scrubs. FML
Today, I placed an order at a fast food joint, when the elderly lady behind me cussed me out for ordering the same thing she wanted. She ranted that I was a "dirty thief", while everyone else glared at me as if I was holding up the line. What the fuck? FML
Today, at work a customer yelled at me, called me a 'fucking bitch', 'a fat whore', and, told me to lose weight because I wouldn't let her in the grocery store I work at to buy lettuce, after we'd closed. Lettuce for her lizard. FML
Today, at work, I was screamed at and slapped by a woman for supposedly violating her 2nd Amendment rights. In reality, I'd simply turned her away from the 10 items or less line because she had well over the allowed number of items. I've no fucking idea what's wrong with some people. FML
Today, while bagging my groceries at a store, a lady came over to me, took a good look at the food I'd bought, picked out an item and put it in her bag. When I confronted her, she called security on me and told them I wanted to steal her stuff. I got thrown out and she walked away with a smirk. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Unless she needed the dog for service (those dogs are extremely well-trained), I fail to see why she would need her dog at the grocery store.

Isn't she not allowed to bring her dog in anyways?

Why is the unsanitary? Dogs walking around in a store tend to be cleaner than the people in there. I've seen people with filthy clothes, hands etc touching the fruit and veggies AND putting them back. How is this more sanitary? Oh, and you're an idiot.

Clearly you have never heard about dog related allergies and untrained dogs/Incompetent dog owners. Moron...

FYI - There are actually service dogs for people with mental disorders like Bi-Polar and PSTD. So she very well may have been bat shit crazy. May want to consider HOW you say things to people you don't know. Your post sounded pretty snobby. Glad nothing really bad happened, but you definitely deserved it.

If the dog was a service dog it would've had a special vest so that situations like this don't occur on a regular basis. And since when do they have service dogs for people with bi-polar disorder, I thought they just took little blue pills?

: ) I actually know this because I suffer from sever Bi- Polar & anxiety and have been looking into the service dog thing. If you google service dog for Bi-Polar you get lots of info. And yes, LOTS of little pills are involved. I am very careful about making sure I take my meds & follow ALL my therapists instructions, so my life is pretty stable. The problem comes in with people like us who don't. If they are approached wrong there is no telling what the hell could happen.

I have PTSD and have been declared disabled by my doctor. I have a service dog. They don't HAVE to wear and vests or collars or any distinguishing accessories. Mine has a collar tag. Yes, I need him to leave my house any time it's dark outside, or any time I feel unsafe. Otherwise I have panic attacks if someone so much as looks at me the wrong way.

Well, op, if you're so scared you should have just turned around and peed on both the dog and the owner. Show your dominance! And they're now your property.

Mind your own ******* business! It was probably a service dog. When I have a cold, I take my dog everywhere and tell people she's my smelling-nose dog. I've trained her to roll over and play dead when she smells someone with bad BO.

I take it you haven't ran into Perdix before? He's not loony, just highly sarcastic.

I'm failing to see how the dog simply being there was unsanitary. Obviously, dogs do have the potential to create unsanitary conditions (as do people), but since the FML did not explicitly state that as the case, I'm going to have to vote YDI this time for not minding your own business and/or not being tactful when airing your grievance to the dog's owner (I can think of dozens of more appropriate things you could have said or done if the dog was bothering you somehow).

unless the dog was doing something that would cause an unsanitary situation ( which im sure u would've mentioned) u had no reason to say anything to her. next time mind ur business YDI

Next time just tell a store employee and let them take care of it...unless you are a store employee, in which case your handling of the situation was inappropriate. You ask them if it is a service dog, and if they say it is not, then you politely ask them to take the dog out of the store.

Was probably a service dog. Many,people think that a servicd dog are just seeing eye dogs which is not true. Some people have small dogs that help alert then of seasures that might be coming up. I think OP needs to mind her own bussiness

Way to perpetuate a stereotype of dogs being uncontrollable drool-machines. Not only was it likely a service animal for this "crazy bitch", I personally don't see how a well-trained dog is any less sanitary than a small child. In fact, I'd think the child would be less so, as they are generally treated with more lenience and less rigorously trained than dogs. YDI.
