TIFU by trying to hold in a shit

So, I fucked up.

I work at a warehouse, won’t disclose which exact one but I can tell you it’s named after a famous river.

Anyway, they have a rule here, that if you go over 6 minutes between scans, you accrue “time off task,” if you reach 2 total hours of time off task... you get fired.

I’d just gotten a warning a week ago like “hey your TOT is a bit high, just make sure you’re not spending too much time fucking around.” Now, I need this job, so I decided yk, if I gotta go I’ll just hold it in until my break.

On paper, good policy. In practice, this theory falls apart.

Anyway I came back to work today, and I’ve been having diarrhea these past few days, so I took a shit right as I got to work before I clocked in. Some time passes, I take my break, I come back from break and I got that feeling in your stomach like “oh yeah I’m gonna have to shit soon.” So, I figured what I was feeling was a fart, so I just yk, let it go.

My god. There, in the middle of the warehouse, a small amount of diarrheal shit escaped my ass. I quickly ran to the bathroom, and discovered I was dealing with a large pool of fecal matter.

I was pissed, sad, and just ready to be done with this stupid fucking shift. But, I couldn’t work the rest of the shift like this, so I took one hour of my personal time off, and headed home to change.

Before I went home, however, I had to talk to my manager to let her know I less leaving for a bit but that I’d be back. Naturally she asked why, and as I tried to make up some excuse, a worker from behind me obviously noticed the shit stain on my jeans.

What happened next will haunt me for the rest of my life. I don’t know who, but I heard someone shout “YO HE SHIT HIMSELF.”

Never been so embarrassed in my life. Everyone laughed, and I submitted my resignation a few minutes ago.

TL;DR: I shit myself at work to avoid getting fired, ended up resigning after everyone saw.

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...

TIFU by putting my already skinny jeans in the dryer on high heat.

TL;DR: Was stupid and didn't realize I put my clothes on extra high heat in the dryer. Had to rock skintight skinny jeans all day with tighty whities (only clean pair I had since I procrastinate doing laundry like crazy). I guess the constant wedgies and squishing are punishment for my stupidity. Honestly don’t know who else to blame but myself for this. I’m a scatterbrained guy so I literally put the highest setting on a load with most of my clothes, and my skinny jeans that I was planning to wear today. You can probably already see where this is going, but somehow I didn’t. For context, these jeans were already pushing the limits of what could reasonably be called wearable. They fit, technically, but only in the sense that I could get them on with enough determination and a bit of strategic breathing. Sitting down in them was more of a commitment than a casual action. Still, they looked good, and I had convinced myself that discomfort was just part of the aesthetic. So this m...
