Embarrassing and Work: Goodbye

Goodbye

By Noname - 28/01/2009 15:50 - United States

Today, I went into my office and told my boss that I hated my job and was quitting on the spot. I tried to leave quickly but I slipped and fell on the marble floor right in front of everybody during my exit. FML

I deserve a raise and fall

Today, I finally mustered the courage to ask my boss for a raise. I confidently walked into his office, ready to present my case, only to trip over the edge of a rug and fall onto his desk, scattering papers and stuff everywhere. FML

Today, I went in for an interview for my first ever job. Just seconds after meeting the boss, I slipped on the linoleum floor. I was wearing a skirt. FML

Today, I slipped at work while putting out a "wet floor" sign to make sure the customers didn't slip. FML

Today, I embarrassed myself not once, not twice, but three times in front of a coworker. I dropped something, they came to help; I got distracted and fell forward onto my knees, to only then nearly knock over an entire skid of boxes on to the both of us. I kinda want to quit my job. FML

Today, my boss called to check if I was available for a last-minute meeting. Trying to sound professional, I sat up straight in my chair, only to forget I was sitting on a rolling chair with no lock. The chair slid back, I slipped off, and a loud crash echoed through the office. My boss asked if I was okay, and I tried pretending nothing happened. FML

Today, I was walking into work holding a coffee and a bunch of other things. My employee saw me and held the door. I was almost there when I dropped my coffee, tried to catch it, tripped over the curb and fell flat on my face. I heard the door close while still lying there. FML

Today, I stood up at my desk and fell. I landed on the arm of my desk chair. There was a loud crack when the plastic in the chair broke. My co-workers heard. They didn't come to check on me because I didn't scream. 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 went into a restaurant with my family. I slipped off my chair, pulling the tablecloth with all the food and drinks on it with me onto the floor. FML

Good luck getting another job with no recommendation in this economy... Seriously?! I'm more angry at the person who hired you! You shouldn't be so ungrateful! I hope you are cursed with unemployment!

Ungrateful? Clearly you have never worked at a job that treats people like shit.

Don't listen to everyone else op. It takes some guts to do what you did. And if you're leaving to pursue something you're passionate about, more kudos to you.

Sorry, YDI. We get PAID to work, hence why people don't just walk in saying, "Hey I would LOVE to sit behind a stuffy desk everyday please give me the next six hours unpaid." Being immature and irresponsible by not turning in a two week resignation, so no recommendation from that job. Good luck though :)
