Today, I was told I needed to start carrying bandaids with me at work because practically every day I hurt myself. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I cut my finger deep on an envelope at work and started bleeding profusely. When I asked my co-worker for a band-aid, she told me to get back to work and stop making up excuses to try and hit on her. FML
Today, I got a paper cut while opening my box of Band-Aids. FML
Today, I cut my hand on nothing while at work. It bled so much, I began to feel woozy, and everyone kept brushing me off when I asked where the first aid kits were. FML
Today, while drilling holes in "No Smoking" signs for my job, I gave myself a minor cut that would appear to most as a papercut. I then had to fill out 3 double-sided pages of paperwork. FML
Today, I received roughly 50 paper cuts while I was at work. I didn't realize this until after I applied hand sanitizer. FML
Today, I sliced my arm open on the weekend, patched it with a fabric bandaid. Had an allergic reaction to the bandaid, arm now swollen, blistering and keeping-me-awake itchy. Pharmacist's advice? "Oooh, that looks bad. Better put a bandaid on that." FML
Today, I hurt my back at work due to faulty, outdated, and just crap equipment. Workers’ comp offered me two Tylenols and a pamphlet about "mindfulness over medical bills." FML
Today, while I was at work in a machine shop, I cut myself really bad. Not with any of the sharp tools, drills, or metals I work with. Just the soap dispenser. FML
Today, I discovered that I'm allergic to band-aids. I now have a band-aid shaped rash around a tiny cut on my leg. Oh the irony. FML
Today, I walked too close to a first-aid kit sticking out of a wall at work, and it cut my arm. Laughing at the irony, I opened it to get a band aid out. It was empty. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

How does one manage to hurt themselves everyday, what is your job?

Carry a 4 person medkit on you, that's what I do.

Back when I was a barista, my work husband would come in every day and preemptively ask me what injury I had on that particular day. Since it was hardly ever anything more than a mild burn or scratch, he thought it was the funniest thing. Good luck with less injuries, OP!

As opposed to telling you to be more careful.

Don't feel to bad about it op, I'm accident prone as well, I'm not allowed to cook without someone over my shoulder, but I do play football and somehow I manage, it's just something you have to get used to.

Sadly I have multiple first aid kits in my cars and home for that very reason, if it's not me it's either my husband or toddler.
