Today, I had a seizure at work. My boss walked by and saw me, but didn't help or do anything because he thought I was "picking something up off the floor." FML

Toxic workplace
Today, I had a seizure for the first time in months. My fiancé went over to my job to let them know I wouldn't be going in. My boss bitched both of us because I didn't call myself. Sure, I'll get right on that when I'm conscious. FML
Today, at work, my phone kept crashing. Without thinking, I announced that it was having a seizure. Who did I announce this to? My boss. Who also happens to have epilepsy. FML
Great first impression
Today, at work, where I am the boss’s son, I introduced myself to the new guy and starting working on a project. Not five minutes into it, I apparently had a seizure, passed out, smashed my face on the work table, and regained consciousness in a state of confusion with EMTs surrounding me. FML
But… the economy!
Today, I found out that my boss was actually legally obligated to send me to the hospital after I was hit on the head while working. I had to finish the entire work day while heavily concussed, and by the time I got to the ER I had lost complete feeling in my right side. They asked me to come in the day after. FML
Today, I was working as a lifeguard. A woman began to have a seizure. Nervous, I went into shock and walked into a tree, knocking myself out. Post seizure, the woman stood up and walked away. Later, I woke up in the hospital. The ambulance had arrived to take her, but ended up taking me instead. FML
Today, I had a mild epileptic seizure. My mom's immediate reaction was not to comfort me or call for help, but to freak out over the fact that I'd spilled my glass of milk over the floor. FML
Zapped
Today, I got electrocuted at work. The boss thinks I'm faking, even though a chunk of my left hand is gone. FML
Today, the heater went out at work. I was shivering so hard that someone thought I was having a seizure. FML
Thanks, vultures
Today, I had a seizure at work and had to go to the hospital. I'd saved up a bunch of money and was on the verge of moving out at the embarrassing age of 26, but thanks to lackluster health insurance, I lost all of my money and am now in debt. I also now can't drive for six months. FML
Today, thanks to my estranged husband, I had three seizures at work. I came home yesterday to find that my seizure medications were completely gone. He'd flushed them down the toilet because he thinks I'm psychotic and "read on the internet" that it's because of the meds. FML

Next time don't look like you're picking up something off the ground. Is it really that hard to have a seizure properly?

really for a seizure,there isn't much he could really do to help. if he thought you were picking something up, then it wasn't violent contractions. you probably weren't in any danger of injuring yourself during the seizure. if this is your first seizure then fml, if not, I'm sure its not fun to get them, but you probably got the rest of your shift off to get checked over and got paid for an entire shift.

Maybe your boss is a recovering sex addict and if he got over your helpless body, he'd be compelled to bone you. I know what that's like, except my addiction is food. And instead of a helpless woman, my temptation would be a doughnut. So, I understand your boss's dilemma. Ironically, with a doughnut it's everything AROUND the hole that is delicious and delightful while the hole is just a waste of time, but with a sex addict. . .

How was he supposed to know? Did you even tell him about your seizures? Is he supposed to be psychic? That's not an FML, you know. Of course, being an epileptic is an FML, so there is that. Seizures suck.

@31 actualy the boss couldve done alot more, 1st thing he shouldve done is yell for someone to call the paramedics, 2nd thing he shouldve yelled for some co-workers to come help him remove all things OP couldve hit, 3rd thing the boss shouldve done is get the co-workers to hold down the OP's arms and head and legs and chest so that OP could not hurt themselves anymore... conclusion..... FAKE
