Today, I had just reached in my purse without looking to grab a granola bar when my boss walked in my office. We talked for a few minutes as he kept giving me strange looks and looking at my hand. He left and I realized I hadn't taken a granola bar out, but a tampon instead. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I bought a box of tampons and went to the store restroom to insert one. I then put the box inside my purse. On my way out, I got stopped by security, who yelled at me to empty my purse. He grabbed my bag, spilling the tampons everywhere. Apparently, he thought I was stealing. FML
Today, I was running late for work and skipped breakfast. At a red light, I noticed a granola bar in my bag and so I took a bite, only to realize it was actually a dog treat I'd stuffed in there days ago. FML
Today, I was expecting my period. To avoid the embarrassment of everyone in the office finding out, instead of putting tampons in my bag, I hid one in my bra. It fell out while I was coming back from lunch. I am now known to all as "The Tampon Dispenser". FML
Today, in class, I reached into my bag to pull out a tampon, which I hid under my sleeve so I could make a quick escape to the restroom. My teacher yelled at me, because she thought I'd taken out my phone. I then had to prove myself by showing the tampon to the whole class. FML
Today, I forgot I left my tampons in a grocery bag packed with food that I put into the fridge. I realized two hours later while frantically looking for a tampon. I'm still cold down there. FML
Today, at work, I was walking to the back office, and I didn't know my manager was following me. After I walked through the door, without looking, I reached behind me to close it. Instead of grabbing the door handle, I got a handful of his crotch. FML
Today, while at work being a waitress, I gave my customer his credit card receipt to sign. Instead of giving him a pen, I pulled a tampon out of my apron pocket and handed it to him. FML
Today, someone at work put their used, bloodied tampon applicator back in its wrapper, and into the free tampon bin for some sucker to grab. That sucker was me. FML
Today, while working an early shift, I was dressing a wound on a gorgeous guy, when he laughed and pointed out some granny panties next to me on the floor. I guess I forgot to take yesterday's underwear out of my pants before putting them back on this morning. FML
Today, while working in a dark nightclub, I dropped a red charger. Retracing my steps, I found it, or so I thought until I picked up a used tampon. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

a tampon doesn't feel like a granola bar, it's thinner and round..

FYL more when you realize where your granola bar is.

I so know what you mean. I have work at 7:30 and there are times that I don't even know why I just said what I did lol

ya idk know if this is really FML worthy, its a tampon every girl uses them, now if u pulled out a vibrator or something(how u would mistake that for a granola bar idk) that would be humiliating.

Not really an FML, it wasn't super embarassing and it was just a tampon it could have been a maxi pad.

That has happened to me! I was actually in class and I didn't want the teacher to think I wasn't paying attention, so I was looking up at her, meanwhile searching in my bag for a pack of tissues. Instead I pulled out a pad and looked down and noticed after the large group of guys behind me started laughing hysterically. It was terrible, I totally feel for you.

Sophomore year, i pulled my notebook out of my bag and my toiletry bag fell out on the floor. I forgot to close it last I had it open and everything flew across the floor. 20 kids in that class and 15 of them were guys. I didn't think I could turn that shade of red

but if you're just reaching into your purse and trying to find something, you grab the first thing that remotely feels like what your looking for. i guess i could understand that...

Why dont girls simply put things they do not want to accidentally grab in plastic bags in their purse? If you did this then problems like yours would never happen
