Today, I arrived at the beach for a week's vacation. I walk on the beach only to find they are "rebuilding" it. They have heavy machinery all over the place, they work 24/7, and this only happens every 15 years. Glad I picked this week. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was looking forward to languishing on the beach for a few days of a “much needed vacation” when I literally got called back into work on my way to the beach. FML
Today, it's only day three of my annual vacation. Rest and relaxation? Afraid not! For the past days, I've been haunted by the constant thought of how much work will be piled up when I get back. FML
Today, the first day of my 4-day weekend, I fell off my scooter. I'll have to spend the rest of my vacation bandaged and away from water. I'm on a beach. FML
Today, my job announced we will be working mandatory 7 days a week for the next 6 weeks, maybe longer. There goes my summer. FML
Today, I came home from work to find construction workers repaving my street. I work the graveyard shift. FML
Today, it was supposed to be payday. Instead, it was the day I found out that, for two weeks, I have been volunteering for Habitat for Humanity, and am not actually employed by a construction company. FML
Today, as I was leaving for a 2-week vacation after working my ass off for 2 years, my area manager handed me a project. It's a 3-week job, and he told me he needs it when I get back. FML
Today, after 3 months of quarantine being totally broke, I was finally glad to get back to work. I found out that they no longer need me because "there's no money" to pay me. As I was leaving, I saw freshly renovated rooms, a huge new plasma, and a crowd of workers busy expanding the summer terrace. FML
Today, I was trying to relax on the beach after a stressful day, just to overhear a bunch of kids near me start fighting over who pooped in the hole they'd dug in the sand. FML
Today, after being jobless for 2 years, I got a call back for an interview. I was ecstatic until I saw the date. It's the same day I leave for a weeklong, nonrefundable vacation. I applied for the job 6 weeks ago, and since not hearing anything bought the vacation 2 weeks ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The hard hat that you'll have to wear while tanning will really serve well for picking up members of the opposite sex.

It seems odd that they would do doing serious work on a beach in the summertime. Usually things like that are arranged for the off season. But like everyone else has already said, drive a few miles and find a different stretch of beach. No huge loss.

Years ago, I booked a stay at the "Fountain Blue, Hilton" in Miami Beach. That's directly on the beach line, and it wasn't cheap! Believe me, when making reservations, NO ONE will tell you the beach is closed, and why would you think to ask? Beach erosion is a problem here in Florida and I understand it needed to be fixed. I still had access to the beach further down but if I knew I had to walk sooooo far to get to it, I would have just booked another hotel. So, It does indeed suck for the OP!

Hey on the bright side; you don't have to worry about sun tanning. The construction workers will whistle at you no matter what you're wearing. Take this experience as a good thing!
