Today, I was handling corrosive chemicals when I accidentally spilled a beaker of Hydrochloric Acid on myself. I had to strip naked and use the emergency shower with my boss and my hot coworker watching. The worst part was when I realized my coworker was laughing at the size of my penis. FML

Today, I found out how acidic some of the chemicals I work with are. After a chemical shower, minor burns, and having to throw away my clothes due to a biohazard, I had the pleasure of running across the parking lot to my car, wearing only a lab coat around my waist. FML

Today, I had to take out the grease traps from our fryers. A very rude co-worker cut me off, so I had to abruptly stop and try to prevent as much spilling as possible. Luckily, it only spilled on me. I'm here for six more hours with burned, smelly, greasy spots all over my skin and clothes. FML

Today, as I was walking to wash my hands after using the restroom, the guy walking away from the sink flicked water from his hands towards the floor. Water splashed all over my beige shorts. I had to walk back into class looking like I'd peed my pants. FML

Today, I took a piss while doing yard work. Later, to my horror, I discovered that I had touched poison oak at some point. My penis is now blistered and swollen. FML

Today, I was working as a paramedic when my patient's colostomy bag exploded all over me. I was covered in fecal matter, with 5 hours left on my shift. FML

Today, I purposefully spilt my 44oz. cup of water on myself at work, because spending the rest of the day in soaking wet pants was less embarrassing than letting people know I'd pissed myself. FML

Today, at work, I wet my pants. I had to throw my tighty-whities away. Since I didn't have underwear on, I chafed real bad and got a rash on my butthole and near my balls. I had to push my boyfriend off of me, all because it hurt too much to touch. FML

Today, I tried to open my water bottle, which is like trying to open a pickle jar, and after several seconds, it exploded all over my desk and clothes. Then, when I was going to get paper towels and a change of clothes, I slipped on the puddle and hit my head on my desk as I came crashing down. FML

Today, I went to get blood and urine tests done before work. As I was attempting to aim into the cup, I lost balance and slipped. I ended up peeing on my sleeves and my pants. I was late for work and I smelled like pee. FML

Today, at work, I had a coughing fit so bad I actually shat myself. What felt like a gallon of liquid crap poured down my trouser leg onto the floor. I work in a competitive office and this happened in front of 30 spiteful coworkers who love posting pics online. FML

You have a pretty valid complaint to make to HR. Of course, you then have to keep reliving the humiliation but that was pretty unprofessional on her part. (You may also have misinterpretted her laughter. Was it from nervousness? Some people do that. )

Should have threw some chemicals on her, and make HER strip naked so you can laugh at her.

Hah... "That was embarrassing. Oh well back to wor-- damn I tripped.. Worst luck today! Oh no, I spilled a beaker on you? That's a shame. Hope acid reacts well with silicone."

depends on the concentration and what the safety procedures are.

FAKE you wouldn't have to strip off and shower immediately from a bit of hydrochloric acid.

Doesn't the safety video say, the teacher (in your case boss) will escort everyone out of the room while you undress quickly? lol

dude, HCl(aq)? like, unless that was 5 M or more, it can't have been that bad? I mess around with 2.0M HCl(aq) all the time, and throw it down the sink and shit, and nothing ever happens....

Seriously, are you people thinking about what your posting? Regardless of how strong the acid is, it is still an acid. What are you going to do? "Oh, hey, I spilled a beaker of HCl all over my clothes and body. Eh, no problem. I'll just continue on."

I am calling bull shit. If you really spilled that much STRONG HCl, there is no way that she would want to be in the same room as you! That is because concentrated HCl can form explosive H2 and corrisive and deadly Cl2 when allowed to mix with large volumes of air. If you really spilled that much, people would have to evacuate the building due to the large amount of TOXIC fumes you created!! I speak from experience. What a dumb ass. FAKE FML!

mercyFML, I totally agree! If I saw a girl in a shower, I wouldn't laugh at her penis whether it was small, average or large. I'd be throwing up profusely!

HCl can be an aqueous liquid AND HCl is a gas. It would only seperate into H2 gas and Cl2 if it was 1) mixed with an oxidizing agent or 2) has eletricity sent through it somehow. God you're so dumb for being so judgemental.

Funny, because if you were caught laughing at her body you would be labeled as a sexist, chauvinistic pig who can't respect other people's bodies, and you would be attacked by the feminists. Aaaah I love the double standard.
