Today, it was my first day at work as a cashier. I was so nervous that my whole body got numb and my eye sight completely blurred. I ran to the bathroom blind while bumping into everything in the store, making sure that everyone knew I had a problem. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, it was my second day working as a cashier in a drug store. I thought everything went great, but by the end of my shift, my cash register was $10 short. Maybe it wouldn't be that bad if on my first day it hadn't been $30 short. FML
Today, at my first day of work, I was impressing my trainer with my skills by carrying many trays at once. Well, I could until I came around a corner and ran into a customer. With food all over his front, he introduced himself to me as the head manager. FML
Today, I was called into my first day of work as a cashier. Not even 30 minutes into training, my boss had already "accidentally" touched my ass 7 times. FML
Today, it was my first day of work at my new job. I got dressed and arrived early, only to find out that the store had closed due to a power outage. Then I found out that the person who'd hired me had totally forgotten about hiring me anyway. FML
Today, I was shopping in a packed store when I started to feel faint. Since I was quite far along in the queue, I tried to hold out until I reached the front of the queue. Good news: I succeeded. Bad news: I then fainted at the counter, hit my nose, and shit myself. FML
Today, while at work, I started to feel sick to my stomach, hot, and dizzy. My co-worker told me to go home. On the way through the locker room to get my stuff, I experienced a dizzy spell so severe, I blacked out and pooped myself. No one in the building is going to let me forget this. FML
Today, I worked a 9-hour retail like this. I didn't notice until 3 hours into my shift and had to deal with this embarrassment for the next 6 hours. FML
Today, I bought an eye mask to help me sleep during the day, as I work night shifts. Upon waking up after my first time using it, I forgot I was wearing it and thought I had gone blind, causing me to fall out of the bed and split my head open on my bedside table. FML
Today, I started my first day of work. I was told to absorb everything going on and to get used to the high-paced flow of things. I've been sitting at my desk for two hours now, and the office has been empty since I've walked in. FML
Today, I was at work at Walmart, casually walking in the middle of the store, when my foot caught on something, so I went flying forward and yelled, being caught off guard, to the point I had to pretend I was running for 3 seconds, then someone blocked my path so I suddenly had to stop. Everyone was staring at me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Steven is right by definition. People stop getting butt hurt because he used the word pathetic.

Thank you! Finally someone who will read what I say instead of just freaking out!

#91 I wasn't freaking out. I was just stating my opinion, as you were. If I were freaking out, there would be some all-caps action going on. :P

Adjective pathetic (comparative more pathetic, superlative most pathetic) 1: Arousing pity, sympathy, or compassion. The old man’s pathetic pleas for forgiveness stirred the young man’s heart. 2: Arousing scornful pity or contempt, often due to miserable inadequacy. You can't even run two miles? That’s pathetic. You're almost 26 years old and you still can't hold a real job? That's pathetic. stevenmx should be careful with the context in which he uses words because the second definition came to mind as i read his initial comment. and i can deal with that. what gets me is that he's trying to weasel out of his opinion. all this "can be defined..." that's evasive talk

It's not evasive, it's called using your brain. I didn't feel I needed to display the entire definition for her because we all should already know what it means. I was trying to make the point that she obviously didn't know that it had a meaning other than what she would accept as the meaning. Also, as I expressed in my other comment to you, I do feel pity for op but that doesn't mean I have to kiss her ass. Also, once again, not a single thing that you wrote (not copy->pasted) was capitalized... Are you 5?

how could you possibly get that nervous from a cashier job? how will you even function in a meaningful way in society? you seriously need to grow a pair. I hold ppls lives in the balance at my workplace and don't even flinch. Stand up or drop out.

That cant ne caused by nervousness. Blurred vision from being nervous, I dont think so.

79 - Really? They fired you for being too shy? That seems a bit harsh since, having worked at Applebee's for two years (it sucked!), I know it takes a few weeks to even become acclimated to the hectic pace of waiting.
