    I can't sleep because of something that happened at work. I have a parttime job at a grocery store, which obviously isn't a place that you'd expect to encounter v*. Well, LUCKY ME![]I was walking into the back area to talk to one of my managers and I saw this obese woman covering her mouth and saying that she was sorry.She seemed kinda shook up and I pretty much knew right then... I looked down at the floor and there it was. (She was trying to get to the bathroom but didn't make it. [] [>_<] ) My manager was nice to her and cleaned it up. It was more graphic than this and there are some other gross details, but I understand that you guys would definitely prefer not to hear them since you're just like I am. I called my mom when I was on my break and I told her that something horrible happened and that my night was ruined. I told her that a woman v*ted and she was like, "Oh my gosh, I thought you were gonna say that you lost your job or something!" I told her that it was kinda an upsetting feeling that I was experiencing and that I couldn't understand why!
    I just had to vent! Nobody else understands!

    That sucks. I remember when I was about 13 or 14 I was working in a chinese resturant near by and this lady threw up on the table, in my section! I was a busser back then and they wanted me to clean it up! I was like HELL No! I didn't know what the lady was sick from and there was no way I was about to clean it up! I totally understand...you'd think that working at a resturant would mean no V*ing but NO!

    That is really discouraging. I'm not going to blame the woman for something she could not control, but it is annoying nonetheless. It wasn't her fault, and I sympathize. But geewiz!

    I'm sorry that happened.


    Part of the reason I fear v'ing is the reaction. I feel awful for that poor lady.


    One time when I was sitting in class, someone v'ed behind me. After she did she made this agonizing moan, I felt so horrible for her (but also left class, made it look like I was going to check on her, I went to my car and drove home. Not one of my finer moments)

    Oh no, how awful for you. I had a similar experience in a grocery store with a kid v*ing - luckily my friend (who knows about my phobia) made some excuse to whisk me out before I saw anything, bless his heart. Even so, I couldn't bring myself to go into that store for ages afterwards.


    My worst experience of recent years was when my fiance and I were out having a quiet afternoon drink with a couple of friends in a pub in town. I was so enjoying things until a group of youngsters (only just drinking age if that) came in obviously very drunk. One proceeded to projectile v* everywhere just as I was looking over. It was only on the next table too. I was horrified and it ruined the whole day for me. I still get the bejabbers up me thinking about it now and couldn't go in that pub for about two years afterwards! <shudders & contorts face in disgust at memories>

    I'm sorry but I can't help but laugh at your mom's response because I'm
    sure you'd be less upset if the problem WAS that you'd lost your job.

    Yikes! I hate it when things like that happen at work.


    I was working the cash register, and this lady pulled up with her cart and said her son had v*ed in the end of aisle 6, and that the cart needed to be cleaned out too. Man I was like "Back woman! Get thee AWAY from me with that horrid cart!" Yeah needless to say I stayed right put behind the register, and thankfully one of the managers cleaned it up and the cart. Urgh. Course it took me a while to stop avoiding that aisle! [img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]

    That sounds like an aweful experience...

    You guys say that you think grocery stores and resturants are unlikely places to v* but I am actually the oppisite..

    I am deathly afraid of grocery stores because twice when I went grocery
    shopping there was a v* incident. I'm not gonna get into it though...

    I do feel sorry for that lady, but especially for you >.<

    Gotta hate it when it happens.</font>
