TIFUpate: allowing my coworker to set me up

TIFU by having seizure when asking for my job back

I (26M) have Cystic Fibrosis and had to get a double lung transplant last year. Because of the long recovery and COVID, I haven’t been able to work in a long time. I used to work at a grocery store in and decided to ask for my job back part time. Working there was my only hope because it is flexible and in walking distance. I can’t drive anymore because of seizures. I’ve only had a few though and take meds to control them.

I walked over to the store looking my best and ready to talk to my old manager. Everything felt so surreal and bright. I figured that I was just getting nervous and emotional about being there after so long. Right away near the front of the store I saw an old coworker and she recognized me. She asked me how I’ve been and I tried to answer but my brain started shutting down.

For some reason I touched her chest (wtf is wrong with me) then grabbed her arm and fell backwards. I hit my head on the concrete floor and started seizing really badly. Everyone in the whole store surrounded me (many that I knew) and they called 112. My head was bleeding, I was puking and choking on it and worst of all, lost control of my bladder. I was wearing these tan khaki pants so it was very noticeable. The piss got all the way down into my shoes.

When I finally came to, the paramedics were cutting off my shirt in the middle of this store. My chest is extremely fucked up with scars and I have a J-tube. Everyone looked at me like an alien. I was so embarrassed and trying hard not to breakdown. They were trying to ask me questions but I pretty much played dead until I got in the ambulance. There went my one potential job. I’ll never go back there again.

I’m alright now just feeling defeated and mortified. The only thing helping me has been reading other posts like mine knowing I’m not the only one. That’s why I decided to share this.

TLDR: Had a seizure and pissed myself in front of my old coworkers when I went to ask for my job back and now I’m going to be unemployed forever.

TIFU almost so bad by not unlogging from this Reddit account

I use this Reddit account to mod r/hearhimfuck , watch my porn and answer NSFWAMA when I feel like it. I religiously log off completely after every time because I don't want my partner or anyone knowing about this account. It's the holidays and we are all busy so I had a quick session with myself and ran to get a shower and leave for another family Christmas dinner. My phone stayed in my purse the whole evening. By the end there's 6 of us left and we're sitting in the living room, having mellow conversation. Pets are discussed and photos shown. Someone asks about my dogs so I go fetch my phone and sit back on the couch. As soon as I unlock it, there's a full blown ANAL clip playing. Fortunately, the sound was off. I manage to turn the sound all the way down and shut the app without anyone seeing. TLDR; Iwas THIS close from having hardcore porn blasting surrounded by my parents, my partner, an aunt and a two cousins. I can't imagine the aftermath of what could...

TIFU by fucking my coworker

Happened a couple of days ago, but yeah, as the title says... Oops... We've worked together for about a year now; we've always been friendly, but I never really clocked her as a potential romantic option; she's my coworker, she had a boyfriend when we started working together, and to be honest I just thought she was completely out of my league: I'm a schlub and she is gorgeous So when she texts me asking if we want to hang out after work, I genuinely thought nothing untoward would happen; I thought we were just going to chill and watch cartoons; and for a while we were just having a nice platonic hangout. But we got very drunk, and eventually she was giving me the bedroom eyes and saying we should make out. I very emphatically said that was a bad idea, but she kissed me anyway, and at that point I really lost any semblance of self-restraint.. I am not proud of myself, at all. I can tell myself that she came onto me, but ultimately I also comepletly let it happen. No...

TIFU by shopping on Amazon

So I have an Amazon account, and a family. Anyhow, the person I'm seeing likes to do things with me... try new things if you know what I mean 😏 Recently I've ordered a few packages with adult toys, swing, etc. And... clone a willy. It came in yesterday while I was out. While I was out I got a notification that the cloning kit came in. I sent my son a text asking him to bring my Amazon package in. He said he had already. I didn't think much of it. Until last night when I went to go... use it. I asked my son where the package was on my way out the door. He asked "The plant stand or the cloning kit?". Mind you, the boxes DO NOT say what the contents are, nor were they opened. He must have realized what he said because my face is a goddam story book. I just stood there silent and shocked. He pointed towards the closet. This has been going on for ages, but he has NEVER indicated knowing what's in the packages. So now my teenage son knows his mom is a freak. ...
