I heard of someone who on their first day was given the wrong uniform size. It was way too small and they looked really uncomfortable all day. Plus, they had to meet important clients that day, and they were self - conscious the whole time.
One of the worst I've heard was about a new worker who was left alone in a store on their first day. They didn't know how to operate the cash register or where most of the products were. There were customers coming in and they were completely overwhelmed. They had to call the manager several times, but the manager was annoyed at being bothered so much. It was a nightmare for that person.
One of the worst stories I heard was when a guy completely forgot it was Valentine's Day. His girlfriend had been dropping hints for weeks. She made a special dinner reservation, got all dressed up, and when he came home from work, he just asked what was for dinner like any other day. She was heartbroken.
A friend of mine had a first date where the guy brought his dog without telling her in advance. And the dog was really unruly and kept jumping on her the whole time.
I heard about a person's worst first time camping. They forgot to bring a tent pole, so they had to improvise with branches. And then it rained all night, and they got soaked. What a nightmare.
A friend of mine had a power outage right in the middle of a big presentation. He had no backup power source and couldn't get online again in time. His clients were really disappointed and he almost lost the deal.
One of the worst family stories I've heard was about a family where the parents constantly favored one child over the others. This led to intense jealousy and resentment among the siblings. The unfavored children grew up feeling unloved and unworthy, which had a huge negative impact on their self - esteem and relationships later in life.
There was this teacher who was always late for class. She would stroll in 15 minutes or more after the class was supposed to start. And when students were late, she would punish them severely. Also, she was very disorganized and would often lose students' assignments, which was really frustrating for everyone.
I heard about someone who worked at a clothing store. On their first day, they were folding clothes and accidentally knocked over a whole display of mannequins. It made a huge crashing noise and everyone in the store turned to look, but then they all started laughing.
I remember my worst first day at a new school. I had prepared my textbooks and everything but when I opened my backpack in the first class, I realized I had grabbed my sister's bag by mistake. So, I had all her girly stuff like makeup and dolls in my bag instead of my own things. The whole class laughed when I tried to explain. It was a nightmare and I still cringe when I think about it.
A friend of mine had a date who took her to a really seedy part of town. The place was dirty and there were some really sketchy - looking people around. She was so scared and just wanted to leave right away. It was a really bad choice of location for a date.
I heard about a family whose flight got cancelled during a holiday. They had to stay at the airport for over 24 hours. There were no comfortable places to sleep, and the food options were very limited. It was a horrible start to what was supposed to be a great vacation.
