TIFU by not checking if the store gave me back the my WHOLE charger

This goes from yesterday into today.

So, for context: I'm a University student, and I need my laptop since all my stuff is on there. A while ago I got the shock if my life when my Laptop stopped charging and wouldnt turn on. Luckily we figured out the issue was the charger, not the laptop, so me, my boyfriend and my mom went to a store whos name I will not name, where we got the laptop from. We still had guarantee.

Now the poor employ had to deal with my mum trying her best to get me a replacement charger for the time being, but they told us they don't have any and that we will have to buy one, and give it back in 28 days, while we still could, and repeat that until the chargers fixed. Sucks, but fine. We go into the store, ask for the charger. They dont have the 15€ charger, only the 40€ other brand one. I still pay for it and we head home. The new charger has a faulty connection and cannot charge when my laptops turned on. I deal with this for 26 days. Fast forward to yesterday, we go in, give the new charger back, and I recieve the old one. I think "Oh this is really light!" and dont think to check it. I sign everything. Today, just 10mins ago, I decided it was time to charge it. I get the charger, look at it.. ..half of it is missing. I honestly laughed out loud because you wouldnt believe how much shit like this happens to me. I am Gods jester, I play for his amusement, and yet again I am put into dumb situations like these. So now I had to call the hotline, and while laughing, explain that "I only got half the charger, could I maybe have the other half back too?".

Funnily enough, they only gave me the fucking part that didnt need fixing anyways. Will I ever get my damn charger back? I dont know. I'm ordering a cheap brand one off if amazon now and learning from my mistakes and will now cry over the weekend I guess.

TLDR: I got my charger back from the shop after needing to get it fixed, didnt check if it was the full charger, and ended up only getting one half of the charger.

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 ...
