Today, while working the Sunday rush at the deli, I held up a piece of ham to a blind customer and asked him if it was thick enough. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, a customer asked me how long our 6-inch sandwich was. FML
Today, while working at a sandwich shop, we had a shortage and could only put so many veggies on one sandwich. I explained this to one man who was grumpy about it, but kept on ordering. I thought everything went well. He thought my face was a good target to launch his completed sandwich at. FML
Today, I was working in a deli when I cut more meat than I intended; I basically removed my fingerprint via the deli slicer. FML
Today, while at work, a customer, who was also on his phone, rudely asked what kinds of bread we had for his sandwich. After I told him we had many different kinds to offer, he cut me off, told me to stop playing stupid, and stormed out after holding up a long line of people. FML
Today, while waiting tables, I watched a woman pull the bacon off her roast beef melt and eat it. She then called me over and spent several minutes complaining about the our chefs' inadequacy because they didn't put bacon on her sandwich. FML
Today, I went to a new deli in town. While waiting in line, I hadn't made up my mind on what to order, so I let the guy behind me go instead. Turns out he was the hundredth customer, and they gave him his lunch for free. FML
Today, I was working at a restaurant. This guy comes up to the counter and asks if he could have some toothpicks. I told him they were right in front of him. He said, "Sorry, I'm blind." Thinking it was a joke, I laughed until he said, "No, seriously." FML
Today, I got flustered by the gorgeous sandwich artist at Subway and ordered a “meat-long foot-ball.” On Rye of course. FML
Today, at work as a cashier, I was scanning cantaloupes. The man buying them then looked me straight in the eye and said, "Nice melons." FML
Today, at work, I’ll admit that I wasn’t in a good mood. I work in fast food, and I went to hand this guy his food without looking and he didn’t grab it. I got frustrated so I FINALLY looked. With an equally as upset look, I noticed the guy didn’t have arms, so I’d just been shoving food in his face. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It happens. Common actions are hard to break the habit of. You didn't do it on purpose and I'm sure they weren't offended.

That's it, OP. He's recorded your name into his dictaphone, and you'll be the subject of much criticism at their next meeting. The blind will work together to come up with a suitable punishment for your unforgivable faux pas.

Too be honest I might have done the same thing out of habit myself.

Guess he didn't see that one coming.

Mistakes happen, especially during a rush. You probably could've played it off by handing it to the customer and letting them try it.

At least he likely did not notice you holding it up to him.

Well, Did end up asking him to feel your meat?

She'll never see it coming.

I don't know... Was it thick enough?

George W Bush once waved at Stevie Wonder, and he was arguably the most powerful man in the world at one time. I think you'll be okay.

He also told a blind reporter off for wearing sunglasses in a White House press conference not realising he was blind. He did take some stick for that one.

In your defense you were probably tired

You should have flapped it around like you were waving a flag. He could have heard how thick it was.

-cue wet, meaty slapping sounds as the ham flops against itself- "Sounds pretty thick. Let's call it good."

These might be the most unintentionally sexual comments I've read. I'm… I'm not complaining. What else should the OP do with their meat? Ooh, what if it's TOO thick?!
