We spend much of our lives at work, which means statistically, sh*t is going to sometimes go down during work hours. Maybe you got yelled at by your boss, or a co-worker flies off the handle, or maybe—gasp—someone steals your sandwich from the office fridge. We've all had crappy things happen while we were on-the-job. But consider yourself lucky if the worst thing that's ever happened is someone stealing your sandwich (not to detract from how deeply upsetting sandwich theft can be). It could be much, much worse.
Someone asked employees of Reddit: "What’s the worst thing that’s happened on your job?"
These 15 employees share the workplace disasters and traumatic moments that probably made them wish they'd called in sick that day:
1.) From HCkc1n:
My brother and I owned a restaurant together for 7 years. One night a lady came up to pay her bill, my brother was helping her while I was standing next to him making small talk as we did with all our regulars.
Out of the blue she says she is so sorry and then before she could cover her mouth fully projectile vomited through her fingers into my brothers mouth and on his face.
