Today, my co-workers agreed that I was the one causing the elevator to be over its weight limit. When I protested, saying that I only weigh around 150 pounds, one asked me if that included the weight of my wheelchair. They made me get out. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was on the elevator going up to a meeting, and the elevator was getting more and more crowded as we went up. After about ten people got on, they all agreed that I should get off the elevator because they thought me being on was exceeding the weight limit. FML
Today, I got on an elevator with a woman and her child. I was the first one on. When she stepped on, the capacity alarm went off. As she left she told her daughter that's why fat people shouldn't be allowed in public. I'm 145 lbs. She was twice my size. I got called fat by a hippopotamus. FML
Today, I was promptly told to lose weight today by my computer desk when it broke under the weight of my leg. FML
Today, a coworker told me I was "fat shaming" them by discussing weight loss with other coworkers. FML
Today, two people at work - both higher up than me - called me out for "stomping" when I walk up stairs. I have a disability that causes this. We work at a place specifically for disabled people. FML
Today, we have elevators at my work, but you need to go to HR to get a key. I was denied one after I almost died in a car accident because I didn’t look “hurt enough.” FML
Today, I was at work at the airport. I got called up to a plane's cargo hold, and thought I'd finally learn how to use the loader. Turns out they just needed me to weigh something down, effectively making me ballast. Then my boss told me to get the hell off, after which I hit my head hard climbing out. FML
Today, I got stuck in an elevator for well over an hour while riding it up to my weight and fitness class. Very funny, universe. FML
Today, my foreman complained that I was slowing down productivity and costing the company money, all because I was wearing a harness to protect me from falling over the edge of a three story building. FML
Today, I was taking the elevator down with a group of people. It stopped on the 2nd floor and I said "What asshole can't take the steps from the 2nd floor?" Then a kid in a wheelchair got on. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If it is multiple co-workers then there combined weight would effect the elevator not just ur 150lbs

Comment moderated for rule-breaking.
well maybe if you were more considerate of others youd just leave your seat before getting on the elevator. of course youre too selfish for that one, eh wheels? suffer through the pain now of learning to walk again so you can take the stairs.

You life must suck.

a_nutritionist, I lost my respect for you. What if the guy's a parapalegic(sp?), then how will he walk? Plus, how the **** is he being selfish?

a-nutrionist I would simply like to smash u in two right about! your a selfish f**ker. I would never wish being in a wheelchair to anyone, sadly that includes you. but I'd sure like to beat the shit out of you!

Whatfml, you're an idiot. In the small corner of the planet you live in, missionaries must not have brought the joy of sarcasm to you.

Bahhahahaha FML bashing is the funny part. But seriously, file for litigation and get them all fired. Or run over their feet and punch em' in the jeans.
a_nutritionist 10
@65 thats only true when talking with strangers. among my co-fmlers i feel loved and free to say things like this because i know you will all understand me, as we have come to know each other i consider you not only online acquaintances, but you are all my friends... the last hour has shown i need to point out: that too was sarcasm.

54 - I take the stairs everyday in my wheel chair... Backwards while doing a hand stand... Throw in a little parkour with it
LiyIa_fml 8
Run them over with the wheel chair!
dre_bro11 12
Press all the buttons on your way out OP. Maybe even the stop or emergency button too so they have to suffer with you? But it's up to you. If you just want to run over their feet, that's cool with me too.

If you beat the **** outta him, he'd be in a wheelchair, just saying.
Alexisthebestest 16
You're the one that should be taking the elevator. Why can't one of them just take the stairs instead? They're capable of it. What happened to people being polite?
a_nutritionist 10
@60 you and 16 other people either have comprehension issues or major aggression problems. you all probably need therapy.
Sebastian_NG 17
Seriously, this is the first FML in a long time that has made me go: What the hell is wrong with people these days
katt_is_here 24
A_nutritionist...I just don't think you can win here. Do the honourable thing and move along. Also, **** those other people in the elevator!!! What total jerks!
Jaxx66 21
Um... Wtf 48?? I really didn't think there was a bigger asshole on this planet other than my father- but boy! Do you take the cake! Why don't you jump down an elevator shaft and only break your back and legs, making sure YOU can't walk again. To bad karma isn't instant -_-;
WoWfreak290 6
That's completely messed up... I'm currently in a wheelchair for whenever I go out and do stuff, due to the fact that I had major surgery 2 months ago, and I've honestly never had one person be rude to me like that. FYL OP.
pu13 5
A_nutristionist, you are such a win. Pepple on fml can be really stupid and annoying, giving support and advice, but some amazing people are witty and humourous. You sarcasm was not entirely unapreciatted. (i know me spelling sucks)

48, ur an idiot..
Starcatch77 20
48...There are so many things wrong with what you just said. "Suffer through the pain of learning to walk again"? Really? OP could easily be paralyzed, or HAVE NO LEGS. Being in a wheelchair is very rarely a temporary thing, so your comment is completely insensitive and just makes no sense. If someone is in a wheelchair (permanently) they physically cannot take stairs. So why should they have to get out while a perfectly able bodied person stays in the elevator?
a_nutritionist 10
@185 really? i think we established it was sarcasm. OBVIOUSLY nobody is stupid enough to suggest someone whos possibly been in a wheelchair their entire life just goes and "learns to walk". my ******* god. get a clue you stupid twat.

You are an asshole. It is simple as that.

Listen to this guy. If they keep giving you a hard time, get your boss on this. You physically cannot take stairs. They can. Tell them to suck it up and take the damn stairs like able bodied people SHOULD.
kickazz16 15
Put them in a wheel chair and see how it feels. Geez what happened to humanity.
Southpaw7391 3
Seriously there is a potential lawsuit here, if your boss does nothing, call a lawyer
MagicallyFat 12
Or just cut the power to the elevator and scare them
zfrt 3
Or, alternatively, brake all their legs to the point where they all need a wheelchair, that'll teach them.
DoubleDose 0
tell them it won't after you beat their asses with it. or does your weight include the 4 Twinkie wrappers in your purse.

If only I could favorite this comment...
tygerarmy 35
You really need to sit up for yourself! You should have never left the elevator. I hope you took this up with management, a supervisor and the Equal Opportunity. Your coworkers are messed up.
Palirose 22
Lol @ 150 "sit up for yourself"? Lol And I agree don't let them bully you OP.

Buttsexpirate 9
Should've ran over all their feet with your wheelchair as you got out.
rattusrattus 19
Hit them with your footplates, OP! I will be willing to go in front of a jury and say that those cuts and bruises on their shins did not come from you. Seriously, when my family (including my quadraplegic dad) put the lift over the weight limit, we got out. Then I had to run upstairs and call the lift because they design those things for tiny people with functioning arms, not fully-grown men who can bat stuff around on their lap without precision.

MURDERRRBAAAAALLLLL! is a demolition Derby like sport played in wheelchairs (that I'm inventing if its not really one)
rattusrattus 19
I am so modding Dad's chair and entering him into that. Would lances and spiked wheels be allowed?
zombicidal 11
most things are okay as long as their safe so no explosions are allowed but the combatants will have Knight suits on so lances are good no buzzsaws either this is battle bots
vampire1618 5
Wouldn't it of been easier to just either press the buttons and get out or leave one person in their with him?

The elevator's pulley system with snap on the way up in a couple days. I'd stay away from it.

Only one cable would snap?

******* ridiculous... I've spent my fair share of time in a wheelchair and I know how insensitive people can be. Keep your chin up! Karma's a bitch... They'll get theirs.

Ouch. People are just plain rude nowadays. I would either tell your boss or find a new job.

that was pretty sad of them, but at least they weren't saying that you were fat.

Jaxx66 21
T.V apparently gave this one a horrid self Image. Under the circumstances, I don't think that actually matters if OP is fat. And if 150lbs is fat, You need help.
