Today, at work, a lady approached me asking if I'd found a used cloth diaper on a table, and I told her it was probably in the trash. She said "That's okay, I can wash it." So I searched through several bags of trash, and when I couldn't find it, she said "Oh never mind! It's in my bag." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at work, I went to fold a pair of pants that was left in a changing room to find out that someone had taken a dump in them. FML
Today, I was waitressing at work, when a woman decided to change her baby's nappy on a table. One moment I was asking her to leave, and the next, she was shoving a fully shat-out nappy into my hands. She asked me to get rid of it and fetch her baby wipes. FML
Today, at work, a woman decided to use the changing room as a public toilet, to wipe the urine with the clothes she tried on, then leave the mess along with her soiled underwear and a used maxi pad for me to clean up. FML
Today, I couldn't find my phone. Worried that I'd accidentally thrown it in the trash, I emptied out all the bins and searched the garbage. An hour later, my daughter said she'd found it by the bathroom sink. FML
Today, after putting a bag of dirty laundry in the laundry room to wait for an open washer, I came back to find a "free stuff" sign on all of my expensive jeans, new towels, and favorite sweatshirts. The bag was over half empty. FML
Today, at my hotel, I spent over an hour dumpster diving trying to locate a pair of shorts for a spoiled brat that one of the cleaning staff accidentally threw away. When I finally found and returned them to the family, the father insisted they weren't the right ones. Spent all day smelling of trash. FML
Today, I had to clean up human poop that someone trailed through the store. Then, as I was cleaning up all the shelves at the end of the day, I saw that someone had changed their sanitary pad, took a new one out of the packed and used it, then left the used one on the shelf. FML
Today, at work in a library, I found a dirty diaper stuffed under one of the public use computer desks. Not only was it leaking, but it had been run over several times by a rolling office chair. I had to clean it up. FML
Today, I was in a hurry to get to work and I put on yesterday's jeans. While at my meeting an employee asked me if 'that' was mine and pointed to something on the floor next to me. Which was yesterday's underwear. FML
Today, I went to drop the garbage in the compactor as I left to do some shopping. I quickly put my handbag down on the side, threw the 'garbage' in the machine, watched it do its thing, and then turned round to find... the bag of garbage on the side. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Look on the bright side -- you didn't end up finding a used cloth diaper when you were looking through a bunch of trash.

You are allowed to refuse certain tasks at work and that would definitely be one of them. It's a health and safety concern. You should say sorry miss it was probably disposed of. If she asks something like that of you say sorry it's against store policy to do such a thing, and I could get written up for it. Sometimes white lies are good lies :) fyl!

They have diapers that are like underwear? Well so it seem...well if that comes up again check the bag first...not the trash

No they're not like underwear... (Remind me how underwear holds pee and poo? Lol) They are made like diapers, only they are washed between uses... Chemical free and better for the environment..

Cloth diapers are meant to be re-usable...although that is pretty gross anyway. :/

WTF? You went digging for a used diaper that might have been left lying around? Its disgusting that she might have left it lying around, and stupid of you to go digging. Consideration for other stops with excrement.

Hahaha I cloth diaper my daughter. In her defense they can be expensive so I see why she was asking that of you, but I have no freakin idea why she wouldn't check her bag FIRST!

Why did you have to search through the trash? Why didn't you tell her to do it. I think you took the idea of good customer service a little too far.
