Today, I work at a pizza place and one of my jobs is to spoon crushed red pepper into bags. After I finished this, without thinking to wash my hands first, I used the bathroom. It still burns. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was cleaning a pan. I turned the water on, and it was super hot. My reaction was to slam my hand down. On a knife. So, not only do I have a burned hand, but there's also a huge cut on it from the knife. FML
Today, I was in a rush, so I was removing my nail polish while using the toilet. Everything was going fine, until I used the toilet paper in my hand to wipe. It was covered in nail polish remover. It still burns. FML
Today, I reheated leftover pasta at work. I forgot to crack a vent on the container and it exploded in the microwave. Sauce coated the inside, so I spent my lunch break scrubbing while coworkers waited awkwardly to heat their food. The smell is still hanging in the office air. FML
Today, I had to take out the grease traps from our fryers. A very rude co-worker cut me off, so I had to abruptly stop and try to prevent as much spilling as possible. Luckily, it only spilled on me. I'm here for six more hours with burned, smelly, greasy spots all over my skin and clothes. FML
Today, I was making Cup Noodles for breakfast. After microwaving it for 3 minutes, I carefully grabbed the cup to pour some water out, but my hand gave out and some water spilled on it. Now I have a burned hand and no noodles. FML
Today, I cut my finger with a knife while cooking. I work in a hospital and have to use hand disinfectant at least every twenty minutes. It hurts badly. I have to work for eight hours. 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 was feeling sick but went into my waitressing job because I'd already missed 3 days this week. I was dizzy and managed to spill a tray of drinks all over the customers. Then, when their food was done, I tripped and spilled hot chili all over the man's lap. FML
Today, I sat at work for eight hours daydreaming about the homemade four-cheese ravioli I would come home to after spending three hours making it from scratch the night before. When I finally got home and heated the ravioli, I dropped it all over my feet, giving me second degree burns. FML
Today, while cooking, I managed to burn my finger. I quickly turned the tap on and ran my finger under cold water, but apparently someone had just used the hot tap, because boiling water flooded out onto my nicely scalded finger. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I've heard of people experiencing burning pain after spooning before.

You shouldn't have to actually touch yourself to wipe...

Oh my god, ouch! FYL!!! And to the people wondering how she touched herself with her hands, maybe the toilet paper was thin, maybe her hand slipped. There's lots of ways it could happen.

I dunno...my hands never touch skin when I wipe...
cc1992 11
Yeah I'm the same lol, but you never know, I was just thinking of ways it may have happened.

Really? When I was in Basic at Fr. Jackson SC in my 'You're going to pay me to shoot every single day?' days, when we were on field exercises we didn't get issued toilet paper. We did get a ten sheet packet in each MRE. People were whining about how ten sheets just wasn't enough and he calmly told us that in a pinch he could do it with one. He then proceeded to simulate the technique. I'm not going to spell it out, there's plenty of video tutorials of the concepts involved on other sites for the curious. That was the day after which I never left the bay without a pocket pack of baby wipes in my possession. And in the field, with some of those MRE's from my day, well, let's just say that sometimes someone will take your guard duty for you if it means his ass gets to feel clean for a short while. '' I always thought it was just a joke, and no one i met in the service ever admitted to having used it. But at least I know the proper military technique to do it with a single square of the paper.

they make these things called gloves. You should try them

Agreed, hopefully lesson learned.

Who uses gloves when they go to pee? If OP thought of wearing gloves so that this doesn't happen, she would've been smart enough to wash her hands. Wouldn't it be easier to wash your hands before and after you use the washroom rather than having to wear gloves each time? whatever. OP is stupid, YDI.

@128 I think they meant that OP should have used gloves when spooning the crushed red pepper into bags, not when going to the bathroom...

yes, I meant while working in food service they should wear gloves while handling food that people will later be consuming. Washing your hands before using the bathroom is a good idea too.
