TIFU by helping a smelly lady at work

Obligatory this was actually two days ago

I work in retail management and absolutely fucking adore my job. After ten years in restaurants it’s a godsend to be able to be up and active and have 98% of my guests be the nicest people ever. Onto my story….

A couple days ago I was helping a lady find something. She was perfectly nice but (I’m sure everyone knows the type) fucking reeked. BO, cigarettes, you name it she smelled like it. I don’t like to judge your life situation and if you want some cute stuff to make you feel good I’m your girl. I was doing fine helping her and ignoring the smell until she was standing a foot away from me and audibly burped. I live with my SO (30M) and we both burp, as normal humans do at home, pretty frequently; because of this it took me a second to realize that this lady just burped in my face. It was a gnarly one too. I went on business as usual until the smell hit me. Holy fuck the smell. It was like something had just crawled out of the darkest depths of her insides. It took everything inside of me to not gag because I wanted that sale. She ended up not buying anything (it’s cool it happens) leaving and I was then nauseous for the next 6 hours of my shift, skipped lunch, and barely ate dinner. I sprayed perfume, Lysol, sanitizer, nothing could get rid of satans stench where she burped. I’ve seen a lot in my years of customer service by my GOD woman at least excuse yourself don’t just talk through that unholy nonsense.

Maybe this is what I get for being the only person willing to help the smelly people lol

TLDR; lady at work burped the foulest stench I’ve ever smelled in my life in my face and I was so nauseas after smelling it it couldn’t eat all day.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by getting called racist for not handing cash to a customer

today I (F18) fucked up by worked a long ahh shift and got put on register. I never hand money in people’s hands as customers have yelled at me for it, and i think it’s germy so I scoot it towards them as a sign of respect. this lady came in and after i did that she goes “Imma need you to do that again and put it in my hand, you did this last time too don’t you know it’s disrespectful” (meanwhile i haven’t worked register in 2 months at said job and didn’t recognize her) so i apologize, and then cuz it’s call off time i go talk to my boss about it and they all agree with me. apparently though she told my keyholder who’s a poc i was being RACIST by not touching her. so i got told i need to do better even though i didn’t do anything. she was insinuating i was a racist. idk if i should quit or what but i fucked up. TL;DR: i’m a dumbass

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
