Today, while working at my job at a nursing home, I slipped and fell. It wouldn't be so bad if it was just water. No, one of the residents had just had an "accident". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I slipped at work while putting out a "wet floor" sign to make sure the customers didn't slip. FML
Today, I slipped on the wet floor at work and sprained my wrist badly. I was carrying the wet floor sign so no one would slip. FML
Today, I had an accident at work. Not the kind involving worker's compensation. The kind involving desperately scrubbing my office chair with paper towels, before going home to change my pants. FML
Today, I was in the kitchen with my mom, who is severely disabled and can barely walk. She suddenly slipped on a puddle of water, so I instinctively grappled her from behind to save her. It took me a moment to realize my hands were accidentally cupping her breasts. She then slipped again and took both of us down. FML
Today, I was at Walmart walking around when I slipped on some water and twisted my ankle. As I was getting up, a man came up to me and said, "There's some water on the floor, watch out." FML
Today, with a single misstep, I managed to send myself and several others tumbling down a stairwell at work. An ambulance ended up having to be called for one lady. FML
Today, I tripped over a "wet floor" sign at work and hit the floor hard. The floor wasn't even wet. FML
Today, while at work I tripped and fell in the pool while moving a waste basket. I nearly drowned and had to be saved. I don't know which is worse the fact that I nearly drowned or the fact that I'm a lifeguard. FML
Today, I was at the water park, when I slipped and fell to the ground in front of the no running sign. I was walking. FML
Today, I was taking a dump at work at a nursing home. While reaching for the toilet paper, I accidently pushed the emergency button. The nursing supervisors broke into the washroom to help. FML

I love how evil the elderly are, they have not lost their mind, they know exactly what they're doing ... they are just bitter they have to be on a home

Thats why you bring extra scrubs to change into and you walk through there with caution they're not able to control their bladders as well as they used to

As a fellow CNA, I strongly advise that you keep an extra set of scrubs in your car or at work if you can, just for those special incidents!! Been there & worse!!

I have nothing but the utmost respect for you. I could never work in a nursing home and you are making their lives just that much better. I feel bad that you slipped in piss though. I hope you had extra scrubs to change into.

That's very unprofessional of you to come on a site like this and complain about the elderly where you work. You should be ashamed of yourself. I would be livid if that was my grandma.

...Are you serious? Unprofessional because they're complaining about slipping in someone's piss? I'd like to see you fall in piss and not get upset.

I've worked as a hospice nurse. I've been puked on, pooped on, peed on, bled on, sneezed on, etc. I would never be so disrespectful and come on a site like this to complain about it. If you have that attitude get another job. If you were in the lobby of the facility would you be saying, "Aww gross I slipped in pee from a resident?" No. Because family or friends of the residents could hear you and that's very disrespectful. The elderly deserve better.

This is an FML for a reason, this obviously was a very legitimate thing to post on here. Lots of people complain and deal with the elderly. Some situations like this are out of your control. I'd post this as an FML too, because it really did ******* suck. Op could love their job, just an FML moment like we all have though. How's it being rude to the elderly? I'm pretty sure the elderly don't care what op posted on here. Why do you care so much? This Website is for pure entertainment and our comments are here to help op deal with the struggle of their situation or make a joke about it so they feel better about it. . Jesus woman. Open your mind a little bit and think outside the box. There's countless things elderly people that embarrass people on here.
