Today, after 2 months of searching, I finally found a good, stable job. How does the universe reward me upon waking up on my very first day? With a burning yeast infection. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I have a job interview after months of struggling to find work. I also woke up with explosive diarrhea and can’t be away from the toilet for more than 10 minutes. FML
Today, after months of searching and several emotional breakdowns, I finally found a new job. My wife's words of encouragement? "Try not to fuck this one up." FML
Today, after months of unemployment, I finally started at a new job. The building burnt down on my very first shift. FML
Today, after two rounds of antibiotics, I got a yeast infection. My husband started calling me "Yeasty." FML
Today, my life finally seemed to be getting on track after recovering from major depression, paying off most of my debt, and scoring an amazing job. And then I woke up. FML
Today, I psyched myself up and headed out to a really promising job interview. I was sure I was going to nail it and get my first job. That is, until a bird shat on my head on my way there. Thank you so very much, universe. FML
Today, it was my two-week anniversary of starting my new job, after over a year of unemployment due to Covid. It was great, I was getting on with people, and it actually felt like a career where my skillset was valued and I was appreciated by the management. I showed up to work this morning to find it had burned down. FML
Today, after supporting my man during his year of unemployment and job searching, he came home from his first week at his new job. He brought me a little gift: The flu, courtesy of his new workplace. FML
Today, I finally got a job after nearly two years of unemployment. My boss is amazing, my coworkers are fun and helpful, and the pay is great. There's just one issue: it seems as though nothing can change the fact that I simply do not enjoy the job itself, even though I really thought I would. FML
Today, after spending thousands of dollars and several years pursuing a higher education so I could get a high paying job doing something that requires skill and brainpower, I finally got my first job offer after months of searching. I will be cleaning houses. FML

Hey, at least you have money now for those over-the-counter yeast infection creams or a trip to the doctor's to get it checked out.

How does one affect the other. Suck it up, go to work, deal with personal issues on you lunch break or after work. Its not like its a big deal.

...because yeast infections can be incredibly uncomfortable. It's hard to keep your mind focused on the job (particularly jobs which involve minimal moving around) when your ****** feels like it's burning and you feel a desperate urge to pee every 5 minutes.

Hello everyone! Thank you all for the love and support. I know this past tmi long ago but I am MUCH better and healthier now. #3 Thanks for that it made me feel so much better after reading that. I just finished my second day of work and it went great. I've been feeling a lot better lately. So I just want to mention a few things. #12 you are very ignorant. I rather not write down everything you can read from a high school text book but sometimes these things just happen. I only had this happen twice in my life, last being 6 years ago. #35 I understand where you're coming from. Honesty rather be unemployed AND with the infection only because I can be at home in pain rather than at work (being judged on my performance) with pain. Thanks everyone!!! :D
