TIFU by smashing a door in my face

Today was a rough day at work. Tired as ever and understaffed as always I commuted to work. Bad traffic. Hard to get a nice parking lot or even a normal parking lot. At work I waited for the doctor to come in, but they take their time... Examination on the patient lasted three hours. It was hot, I was wet from sweat, Hungry, thirsty and tired. After this patient I had another one, and after that one right away another one. Hadn't eaten or a break. I was tired and inattentive. I prepared the room for the next patient, opend the door to get out but a colleague of mine wanted to get in. I tried to open the door a bit more to let them in and smashed the door full force in my own face. Hurt like hell. I am looking like someone punched me (well the door did). Blue, swollen temple. Mad headache.

What made it worst was that, since it was a work accident, my head nurse told me to go to the E.R. because it needs to be documented. I had to explain to everyone there what happened. Everyone laughed about me. My own whole ward laughed at me for the rest of the day and probably will still be laughing tomorrow. Should have taken the two days off they offered, but we are understaffed so all I said was "Nah I am good." Must have been a concussion.

TL;DR I tried to let a colleague in a room I was already in and smashed the door full force in my own face. The whole ward laughed at me for the rest of the day and probably will be still tomorrow.

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 ...
