Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, after paying at the gas station, the cashier stuck out her hand, which was clenched into a fist. I thought she wanted a fist-bump, so I gave her one. She just stared back at me. Turns out she was just trying to give me my change. FML

Today, I was checking out a customer who seemed quite friendly. As I finished, he reached slightly over the counter and I impulsively reached out and shook his hand. He gave me a dumbfounded look and said, "Can I have my change please?" FML

Today, I tried to give my friend a fist bump. He thought I was trying to punch him so he punched me in the face. FML

Today, I was chatting with a customer who comes regularly to my job. He sticks his hand out and I put my hand on his, thinking he's giving me a high five. He was just waiting for his receipt. FML

Not awkward at all
Today, I met the old couple I would be house-sitting for. As I was leaving the lady stuck her fist out towards me. After a seconds awkward pause I thought she wanted to fist-bump so stuck mine out and bumped. Turned out she was handing me the key. FML

This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff

Today, I had no choice but to shake the hand of a customer who, just moments before, had the aforementioned hand down the front of his pants, scratching his snowglobes. FML

Today, I was at work as a grocery store cashier. I felt a hand slap my ass. Turning around I saw an old man winking at me and I screamed. When my manager came to deal with the problem she didn't believe me and gave the man a $25 gift card for "the trouble" I caused. FML

Today while at my job as a store clerk, I walked by a family. I smiled at their little boy, who responded by flipping me off. As I was walking away, I looked back in time to catch his dad give him a high-five. FML

Look, sometimes people send mixed signals. Like that cyclist making a right turn who /clearly/ wanted a high five. Or that dude in the gym holding those large things and moving his arms because all he wanted was a hug. Don't let anybody else tell you otherwise, OP; I certainly didn't!

Hope he fistbumped you back lol. The world needs more cool people like you! Yes, cool! Next time this accidentally happens, just say, "Hey brah, just wanna say thanks for the change!" :p (Lame, I know!)

"a cashier" - "they"? Your grammar doesn't have a constant plurality... Also this isn't a FML, Just a funny story :)

I do the same thing too whenever a cashier hands me change with a closed fist
