Work: Today, I was delivering packages to patients in the hospital...

Today, I was delivering packages to patients in the hospital for my job. My boss gave me a room to deliver to, and I drop it off as usual. But my boss gave me the wrong room number. I had to walk in, apologize, and take back balloons and a stuffed animal from a crying 6-year-old patient. FML

Today, I was opening and sorting mail for my boss as part of my job. One package was delivered to the office instead of his home by mistake, since his house is next door on the same property. I didn't notice until I had opened it. I had to hand my boss an opened box of toys. Kinky ones. FML

Today, while working at a pizza shop near a college campus, I got an order to deliver to the dorms. Extremely busy at work and annoyed that someone wouldn't take 3 minutes to walk over, I spat on the pizza. When I arrived to the dorm, a woman in a wheelchair opened the door. FML

Today, I was delivering packages as usual for work. I was dropping off a large letter to a hot girl. Before I turned to leave the girl opened her mouth to say something. Instead, she just vomited all over me. Her letter was my first delivery of the day. I had to finish my job covered in puke. FML

Today, I frantically chased a customer down the parking lot, because they had left their package at my register, only to find out that the whole time I was chasing the wrong person. FML

Today, I went to the hospital to visit my aunt and her newborn baby. The receptionist gave me the room number, and I went and my aunt was in the bathroom so I cuddle the baby, only to find that the woman who came out of the bathroom was a complete stranger. I was holding her baby. FML

Christmas gifts

Today, while I was home sick from work, my neighbor got packages delivered. Our apartments have had a lot of thefts lately so, being neighborly, I brought her stuff inside to wait. When she came home, I gave them right to her. Instead of thanking me, she told the office that I was the thief all along. FML

About that raise…

Today, I finally got the courage to ask my boss why the flowers I got her for her birthday the other day were in the conference room and not her office. She told me she was allergic to them and she had such a bad reaction that it made her go home early. I made my boss sick on her birthday. FML

Today, I was expecting an important delivery for a party I'm having tonight. I was in the shower when the doorbell rang. In my haste, I slipped and ended up with a bunch of little cuts and bruises. Turns out, it was someone trying to leave a note saying it would be delivered tomorrow. FML

Today, at work in a call center, I went into my locker to get my pain pills from a recent surgery. When I opened the bottle, half my pills spread all over the floor. My boss walked by and said, "I knew it!" FML

I feel like some people just go through and select YDI without even reading the comments.

Was there not a name to check or something? :/ I feel like this should have been avoidable, but either way, sucked for you and the kid both!

Today, I was in the hospital feeling lonely when a nice guy came in with balloons and a teddy bear. Feeling a bit better about my illness and less lonely, The same guy came in and told me they weren't mine and proceded to take them all back. FML.

Boss should have just let him keep it and bought new ones for whoever was supposed to get them. What a jerk.

That is horrible for both you and the kid. My first thought was: "What?!? Your boss should have paid for balloons and a stuffed toy for the other kid." You should not be put on the spot and made to feel terrible because your boss first makes a mistake (which might have been quite easy to make), and then is too gutless and stingey to fix the problem that he/she created.

Aww poresito, I couldn't take it back. Not from a little kid in the hospital. You're boss is a tool, you should kick him in the knee cap.

Sucks that you have to take the blame because of your boss's stupid mistake... hopefully the parents weren't there to make you feel any more guilty... I'd go buy a stuffie or something small for the kid and let him/her keep that... :]
