work against

Is this sentence correct?

When you're late for work everything goes against you. You forget to lock your door. You miss you bus. You slip and fall.

Thank you

Anonymous Is this sentence correct? It's four sentences! Yes, they're fine, but you need a comma after "work", and "your" (not "you") before "bus".

Would 'go against you' be better than work against you? Sorry I meant to say it the first sentence correct?

Thank you very much

Yes. Otherwise, you've got "work" twice in your sentence in a somewhat awkward way.
