Today, I had to run for the train, but because of my bad foot and limping they held the train, much to people's displeasure. No one let me sit down, so for the 20 minute journey, I stood. With a bad foot. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was sitting waiting for my train for a long while. When it finally came, I had pins and needles in my foot. When I got up, I fell and unsuccessfully stumbled towards the train. The doors closed and it left without me. FML
Today, on my way to school, I was shouted at by an obnoxious businessman for sitting down on the train when a "full fare paying passenger" was standing. I would normally have given him the seat straight away, except I have a broken leg. I showed him my leg and crutches. He still made me get up. FML
Today, I ran for the train that was about to leave. I tried to hold the doors open with my leg and got stuck. The conductor just yelled out how unbelievable and ridiculous I was and waited 2 minutes to finally release me. Everyone was laughing at me. FML
Today, I ran to catch the train, but slipped on the stairs and fell on my shoulder. However, my effort was rendered useless; it wasn't even my train. FML
Today, my train was canceled so my ticket expired by the time another train arrived. I was fined $90 by ticket inspectors 'cause my claim that the early train didn't run was "unsubstantiated". Leaving the train I was pushed by the crowd, fell, lost a shoe and had to walk home with one bare foot. FML
Today, I was on train when an attractive girl got on. There were no free seats and seeing as how my stop was next, I gave her mine. As soon as I did, the train came to an immediate halt, due to "brake problems". I spent the next 40 minutes standing up. FML
Today, I was waiting for the train. It arrived, I got on and the woman behind me stepped on the back of my shoe. My shoe came flying off and landed in the gutter between the train and the platform. The doors closed, the train pulled away. FML
Today, I rushed onto the metro to get to work. I found there were no seats left and asked a perfectly healthy guy to let me sit in the handicap spot. He refused to because "being tired" was a handicap characteristic. I have one leg. FML
Today, I was on the train to work. I was up late the night before, causing me to doze off. When I woke up, I was at my station. I stood up, went to walk out of the door and fell flat on my face on a platform full of people. Someone had tied my shoelaces together. FML
Today, I took a busy train into the city. I was lucky enough to get a seat. People were forced to stand in the aisle in front of me, and the person directly opposite me, whose butt was level with my head farted in my face. Twice. FML

Without a doubt, and yeah I get it OP injuries can slow you down and those people whom make light of it are just ignorant of how much it affects your lifestyle. Keep your head up!

#2 OP CAN help the fact that he was late for the train. Ever heard the saying "5 minutes early is on time, on time is late"? Plus, its only 20 minutes. You can deal

It's difficult to be on time for things when you don't know how much your injury is going to slow you down. If they're late because they're disorganised, their problem. If they're late because they're hurt and you're still pissy about it, then you're a jackass.

Pretty sure OP shouldn't be standing on it if they're limping.

Also things can happen beyond your control to make you late I've had it happen I'm sure most people have at some point or another

Because you're obviously perfect, right 11? Never been late for anything in your life?

The train could've also been early... I mean, I missed the bus this morning because it decided to be 30 minutes earlier than usual. I leave my house at the exact same time to catch the same exact bus. Today just wasn't my day. It happens. Also, if you're injured, 20 minutes is too long.

#14, I had my knee torn to shreds, and even though I could barely use it, I still walked on it.

That stinks op. You should've let them know about your bad foot, and it you did, then they're just jerks.

It's better than waiting for another train. That's why you need to be on time.

if you had a bad foot either stand on one leg to rest the other foot or crouch/siting the aisle. They didn't let you sit in a chair get revenge by not letting them out
