Health, Poopoo peepee and Work: Hang in there

Hang in there

Today, I found out that a water pipe at my work had burst over the weekend. There is absolutely no water in the building, including the bathrooms. It's a 9-hour day, and I took a laxative this morning before I came in. FML

Today, my apartment management notified me that my water was going to be shut off all day so they could fix the plumbing. I took a laxative last night. FML

Today, a pipe leaked in the store I work at. I had to smell sordid waste for more than 8 hours. FML

I'm pissed

Today, my work finally hired someone to replace some leaky pipes. I work in the basement by myself, and just as I walked under the newly-fixed pipes, I got soaked with what appeared to be water. Apparently it was connected to a toilet. My boss couldn't find a replacement, so they made me work covered in piss. FML

Today, I returned to work after a restful week-long holiday. Before I left, I'd finished a huge assignment which is due this week. I walk in to find a water pipe has burst just above my desk, flooding our office with water and ruining my computer. Happy New Year to me. FML

Chili beans

By Caroline Ballard Turner - 22/12/2019 14:00

Today, I woke up to find that there has been a water main break in my neighborhood and there is no running water until the break is located and fixed. I had chili with beans late last night and it is wreaking havoc with my lower gastrointestinal tract, and the toilet won't flush. FML

Pumped-up Tanks

By DogStew - 15/09/2019 20:00

Today, at work I had to spend 2 hours cleaning up stinky toilet water. Why? Because yesterday, I forgot to turn on the septic tank pumps. The tank overflowed, and so did all the toilets. My boss is not happy. FML

Today, my apartment building shut off our water for a short period of time because the pipes were being worked on. It was also the morning my dog had diarrhea on my cream carpet. Not only did I have to clean it up without water, I couldn't wash my hands afterward. FML

Today, I took a dump at work. When I went to flush the toilet, it clogged and began to overflow. I left the bathroom as it was and as I walked out, my boss came in. FML

Today, while using the bathroom I gave the toilet a courtesy flush, only for it to overflow and soak my pants. That would've been bad enough even if I hadn't been at work, with five hours left on my shift and no change of clothes. FML

Rising Damp

Today, I'm the only one at work in a small office. The water tank sprung a leak. Guess who had to call the boss and get instructions via cell phone to turn it off? I can't even leave the office to change my soaked clothes, because I need to wait for an important phone call. Seven hours to go. FML

There's so much wrong with this that it has to be fake. It's illegal to make someone work in a location with no restrooms (or if you work on a boardwalk or a fair or something you have to be within like 500ft of a public bathroom), AND why would you ever take laxatives before work? False and fail and you suck.

The law doesn't make it illegal to work somewhere when an accident such as a burst pipe has occurred, numbnuts. The place has bathrooms, they're just out of order temporarily until the pipe is fixed.

It's illegal to require them to be there, or to fire them for refusing to work under such conditions.

That really sucks and I feel bad for you... but YDI for taking laxatives when you knew you had to work. : Why would you do that, seriously?

Who takes a laxative before work any ways. Running water or not. couldn't you have taken it on your way home from work so you could keep your business at home? Yucky!
