Today, my PE teacher yelled at me for not trying hard enough in class. This my second week back after being in the hospital with a collapsed lung. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my PE teacher was yelling at me because I got exhausted too quickly. As we neared the end of the exercise, he declared, "I will let y'all go early if [my name] doesn't give up halfway through this part." With all of the pressure on me, I forced myself to keep going. Then I promptly collapsed. FML
Today, I woke up with chest pain. It hurt just to breathe, but my parents made me go to school anyway. We're now sitting in the emergency room. FML
Today, I went to attend my summer school class again after being out sick for a week. When I said "Here" during roll call, everyone started cheering and clapping. Apparently, my professor has been badmouthing me while I've been absent for pretending to be sick. I'm sure my grade will be fantastic. FML
Today, I went back to school after missing the first 2 weeks of the new school year. I got grilled in my first lesson by my teacher for "gallivanting around on holiday in some sunny place" when I should've been at school learning. My dad had died from liver cancer. FML
Today, I was in school when I got up to ask the teacher a question. For no reason, the guy sitting next to me punched me in the gut so hard I collapsed and saw stars. The teacher simply rolled her eyes and told me to get back to work. FML
Today, my boss called me to say that I've been slow at work this week and that I will be replaced if I don't pick up the pace. That would be understandable, if I didn't have a broken ankle and pneumonia. FML
Today, I got an email from a professor saying he was going to fail me for missing the allotted absences, which is school policy. I pointed out I was in the hospital for two weeks with a life threatening illness and that he even came to visit me. He told me, "Rules are rules." FML
Today, I coughed so hard that I fractured two ribs. FML
Today, after nearly a week of having laryngitis, I was finally able to talk a little again. Then I yelled at my son for leaving his shit all over the living room, strained my throat, and can barely even whisper now. FML
Today, I woke up my friend and had him take me to the ER. I had trouble breathing and my chest hurt, so the doctor put me on an EKG and took X-rays. I had strained my chest lifting weights at the gym earlier that day and pulled a muscle, and now thanks to my massive anxiety I have a $700 hospital bill. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Suck it up. With your collapsed lung, of course.

What a douche

Does he/she know that? If so, that's really messed up and you need to report it to the principal because that is unacceptable. If the principal won't do anything about it then it's time to get the state involved.

That's bullshit. Tell him to **** off and leave, just as a previous comment suggested. If the principal doesn't back you up, you can still get them in serious trouble. You shouldn't be expected to do strenuous work like that, and you should refuse to do it. Don't feel like you need to do it just because he told you to. He's just a lousy P.E. teacher, nothing more.

And why don't you have a medical excuse from gym written from your doctor? I know Illinois state REQUIRES you to have PE to graduate, but the do allow for medical excuses.

The teacher must've thought if you're well enough not to be excused from the class then there's no point in not giving your all. Next time get a note.

That reminds me of when a gym teacher of mine tried to make a girl in a wheelchair (she could walk but she had leg and lower spine problems that made it quite difficult) run the mile because she could technically walk. Thankfully once administration caught wind of it he was fired.

Well, hopefully you explained it to him. If not, tell someone higher up. Cant be treating someone like that if they have prior knowledge of a serious injury

Bring a note from your doctor - but give it to the principal, because your gym teacher sounds like a douche.

I had my right lung collapse over 10 years ago, your teacher is a retard. I'd report him to the school for endangering your health, I know your pain OP, get better
