Today, I went to buy some flowers for the anniversary of my grandpa's death. I was feeling sad as I finished paying, but as soon as I got near the exit, two women started fighting at the door. We had to wait for the fight to finish because the staff decided to record it and not break it up. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I bought some flowers. As I was checking out, the cashier asked, "Aww, these for your mom? How sweet." I responded they were for a girl I liked. She laughed and said, "Sorry…" FML
Today, I called the florist and ordered a flower arrangement for my grandma, who I was told was sick. I said I didn't know what to get her, so just to send her something nice. I got a call from my mom calling me an inconsiderate bastard. They sent my grandma forget-me-nots. She has Alzheimer's. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for a romantic dinner, since we can't see each other this Valentine's Day. Halfway through, my aunt called, telling me my grandma had died. I had to leave because I was crying so much, leaving my girlfriend with a very pricey bill. FML
Today, I witnessed two women in a catfight, ripping clothes off each other. This would have been great if the two women weren't my mom and my grandma. FML
Today, at work, our team started a new sales strategy of selling flowers to men by asking them to buy one for their lovely ladies. The first guy I ask ends up crying and telling me his wife passed away a week ago. The woman with him was actually his sister. FML
Today, my grandmother tried to start a fist-fight with my wife during my wedding ceremony. FML
Today, I had a fight with my boyfriend over a girl he is close to. He later arrived with flowers for what I thought was an apology. He was actually breaking up with me; the flowers were for her, he just didn't want to leave them in the car. FML
Today, at my grandmother's funeral there was a fight about inheritance. It was my teenage daughters arguing about what they get when I die. FML
Today, I was in a grocery store with my great-grandmother. It would've been nice to know she hadn't taken her medication before she started beating the cashier with her umbrella. FML
Today, after my sister's wedding, a bunch of people were dancing. I noticed my grandma sitting alone and looking sad. My grandpa died last month, so feeling bad for her, I asked if she'd like to dance with me. She seemed a lot happier, until I accidentally caused her to fall and break her arm. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

When life gives you lemons find the person that got potatoes. Embark on the endeavour of making Vodka and infuse it with lemon. Enjoy the lemon drop vodka...

I don’t think it was the employees job to break it up.. I can see recording it for the police to view when called. Hopefully someone from the store called the police as they were recording it. Be thankful they didn’t involve you into the fight and you were able to walk away without a scratch and still had flowers in hand. I though you were going to say they ruined the flowers and store wouldn’t replace them— that would have been a FML— not watching a fight go down lol

You can't expect flower store employees to endanger themselves by breaking up fights. You should have been placing bets with the staff on the outcome of the fight.

It's liability. if the employee or the customers get hurt in the scuffle, it becomes an insurance and legal liability for all involved parties
