Today, I was taking a dump in the bathroom. The lights turned off and I was too embarrassed to come out of the stall. The janitor walked in, turned the lights on and asked If anyone was there. I stayed quiet. He turned the lights back off and locked me in the bathroom. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was using a public restroom when the lights suddenly turned off. Panicking, I waved my arms around, trying to trigger the motion sensor, but nothing happened. I had to finish in the dark, and as I was leaving, the janitor noticed me, turned the lights back on, and said, “Yeah, I turned those off earlier to save power. Hope you were OK in there.” FML
Today, while at work I went to use the public restroom because I had a severe case of diarrhea. All went well until the timed sensor lights went off and I couldn't leave my stall to get them back on. I sat there for thirty minutes in pure darkness. FML
Today, at work, I was on the toilet for so long the motion lights turned off. I stood up, pants around my ankles and began waving my arms above the stall to get them to turn on again. At that exact moment, my boss walked in. FML
Today, I went to the restroom at work, but I forgot the press on the button/timer because the lights were already on, then the lights turned off while I was in the stall. I had to finish my business and exit the pitch-black restroom while trying not to bump into anything or anyone. FML
Today, I stayed late at work to finish a project. The lights are motion-sensor activated, and they turned off while I was in the bathroom. I stumbled out in total darkness and screamed when I saw a shadowy figure. It was the janitor. He screamed too. We both apologized to each other for way too long. FML
Today, I was in the bathroom at work when I ran out of toilet paper. There was another guy in the restroom so I asked him if he could hand me a roll. He laughed, called me a dumbass, turned off the lights and walked out. FML
Today, I had to go to the bathroom, but the door was closed. I waited until I was pretty much about to explode, and eventually yelled, "Are you okay?" and my roommate replied, "What are you talking about? Oh, sorry. I left the light on." How do you close the door and forget to turn off the light? FML
Today, I was in a public toilet, enduring an extremely awkward silence between myself and the person in the next stall. In my rush to get out of there, I managed to get my ass stuck in the toilet seat, and ended up being pulled out by the maintenance men. FML
Today, I was in my family's hotel room taking a dump. The lock to the bathroom was broken so we had made a deal: when the door is closed, someone is using the toilet. The maid didn't know that. She punched me in the face because she claimed I scared her. FML
Today, I was using a public toilet stall when the lock gave way, and the door swung open halfway. I froze, and the person who was washing his hands at the sinks looked at me in the mirror and awkwardly said, “I see you.” I muttered, “I’m sorry,” as he walked out looking like he'd seen a ghost. FML

Dude, everyone has to take the Browns to the Super Bowl at some point! Shouldn't be embarrassed.

So you're telling us you had not only one, but TWO chances to NOT get locked inside the bathroom, and still managed to do so? Yeah, you kinda deserved it.

Normally a lock works two ways. If he had a key to lock you in, you should be able to turn the lock from the inside and get out. Op seems like the kinda person that would get locked in their own vehicle.

I know that you must have felt embarrassed and the longer you didn't say anything the worse it felt, but ignore that feeling and just say something. If you live your life like that then you'll miss out on lots of things.

Don't ignore janitors. That's the most annoying thing you can do.

I don't understand. Why would the bathroom need to be locked up at night?

That happened to me, I have IBS and was in a stall a long time so the auto lights shut off. When someone came in they took the stall next to me, not realizing I was in there. It was really awkward and I was scared to make any noise. As she finished and stood up, a sneeze suddenly came out of me. She dropped her purse, screamed out, "What the ****!" And I couldn't help but break out into nervous laughter. She ran out and got a security guard who met me when I left the bathroom and sternly escorted me off the premises. FML lol :) Don't sweat it, you were in a very awkward position.
