Today, I spent an excruciating hour walking to campus with a broken leg, only to find my professor had left a note on the door saying class was canceled. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I drove 3 hours to get to a class, just to have the professor leave a note on the classroom door saying that she wasn't coming. FML
Today, I drove to my college campus for my 8 a.m. class, parked, walked the mile and a half to my classroom, just to find out class had been cancelled. The prof didn't send an email because she couldn't remember her password. I paid $1200 to be taught by this woman, who has a doctorate. FML
Today, I finally got the guts to walk out of class 30 minutes early, only to find that the back door was locked. As I stood there like an idiot trying to get it open, all 200 people in my class turned to laugh. My professor stared at me. I then walked back to my seat, sat down, and unpacked. FML
Today, I had to go meet my professor at 12. I wound up showing up almost an hour late. Why? Because she doesn't teach at the campus I registered at. I wound up having to visit TWO different campuses before I reached the right one. FML
Today, on the way to an exam, I got hit by a car. I got back up and limped to class. The teacher wouldn’t let me in because I was 10 seconds late. FML
Today, I decided to show up to my new class an hour early, to be able to choose my seat, and figure out how the computer lab works… only to find out that the lab was locked and I had to wait until the professor unlocked it. FML
Today, for the first time this semester, I was able to get parking in time for my Wednesday class. The professor was sick and class was cancelled. FML
Today, I was on my way to college when I got in a car wreck with none other than my professor. My car was totaled and couldn't drive, but his could so I missed class, but he still made it. The end result? He marked me as an "unexcused absence" and gave me a zero. The accident was his fault. FML
Today, I found out that my professor dropped me from class because I missed a Zoom meeting. The only class I needed to graduate. Why did I miss the meeting? Because I was in labor for 32 hours. FML
Today, I had to take the train from my hometown to my university for a very important meeting concerning my foreign exchange program. When I finally arrived, I noticed a Post-it on the door: "Meeting cancelled, sick". I basically made a 9-hour day-trip for a half-an-hour walk. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well, I'd say "Next time, break a leg" but you already have that covered, so boy did I put my foot in my mouth there. I hope no more slip-ups are in toe on my part.

Professors sometimes think they have the right to be insensitive douchebags because they get paid regardless of how they act/work/teach. College taught me that the hard way...

What a waste of a comment.

#1 That sounds so sarcastic, yet, for some reason I think you're being serious. Either way, it isn't pretty.

No #1, poor you.

So dumb your college should email you right away if class gets canceled like mine does

Or ask a friend for a ride. Or take public transportation. Or apparate. That's what I would do.

You don't buy a wheelchair, the hospital provides it for u

Don't they have to pay for health stuff in America?

55 hospitals do not provide wheelchairs for patients to take home with them.. When I got out of the hospital due to major blood clotting in my legs and it was too painful to walk for a week I bought crutches. Hospitals only provide wheelchairs while your staying there

Who's op? Everyone says it in comments and I have yet to find out what op is. U-U if this makes me look less stupid-I'm sorta new to FML

I had something similar once. only I didnt have a broken leg. bht I did have to walk 20 minutes each way in 95 degree weather. Sorry op.

@3 there's nothing in common with your case or OPs. You were uncomfortable while OP was in pain most likely. You could have speed walked to get inside faster while OP cant

In my day we had to walk four miles to class without shoes (because they weren't invented yet) in the deep snow. And it was uphill both ways! THE WHOLE TIME!

#40 I always thought Newfies dropped their kids off at school by boat on the way to the Grand Banks.

oh that type of crap pisses me off. I had a professor that did that. I had to take 2 public buses with a large soft cast and stitches on crutches. only to find out canceled. my sympathy to you and I hope your leg heals soon.

Not skipping class will definitely give you a leg up on your classmates. What, too soon?
ComoEsJuan 24
You should really give the kid a break, Doc.

Now you'll have to walk back.

The fact that no one at least e-mailed you to tell you it was cancelled seems really dumb.
