A glitch that wasted your time...
No prompt. No rules. Just rant about anything.
So I just got a new coffee machine for my apartment, excited to upgrade, and the first load comes out tasting like bitter water. No surprise, the instruction manual is online somewhere, but I'm stu...
Stood in line for my coffee order, and the barista just handed over a to-go cup with the name written in the smallest font I've ever seen, it's literally unreadable from two inches away. Who does t...
I swear, I just wasted 20 minutes trying to figure out what's going on with my phone's battery % display after I reset the settings. 97 appears before the decimal point. That tiny '3' makes a huge ...
Fifteen minutes late for a meeting and I had to wait in the freezing conference room because the air conditioning couldn't get programmed in a timely manner. Why is it nobody checks these things be...
Coffee shop line jogs along, then hits a snag. Barista scans ticket, only to pause, confused. Did you get this card recently? I ask, already knowing I did. She nods slowly, fiddling with the scanne...
So I'm trying to get something done on my project, and of course everyone keeps walking in on me, asking the same dumb question over and over like they're too lazy to read my notes, now my focus is...
I went to grab some lunch and it took the cashier 5 minutes to scan my 5 items. Not the worst part, it's the fact my sandwich has now gotten soggy from the 7 minutes I stood there idly watching her...
I was supposed to attend an online seminar at 8 am sharp, logged in a minute early. But the moderator accidentally muted all mics, starting us 45 minutes in. Now I've wasted half my morning to catc...
Just tried to order takeout and I wasted 15 minutes deciding between the 527604th 'classic' option instead of the new item. I mean what even is a classic in pizza terms? Can't just offer the new st...
Just tried to grab lunch at my go-to cafe and I'm frustrated right now. The line was backed up, which wasn't my initial worry. I got to the counter only to find out they'd run out of my order, a si...
Just got into a hassle with the barista at my go-to coffee shop, can't believe they managed to mess up a simple 'to-go' order after I specifically said 'no room for cream'. They poured a ridiculous...
Just tried to return that defective coffee maker, model 622981, had all the packaging and paperwork and everything. Cashier seems completely uninterested in helping, just nods along and asks me to ...
I was trying to order coffee, and the barista asked if I could repeat my phone number again, even though I just gave it to her 60 seconds prior, and there's a huge screen next to her with my order ...
625422's auto dial just dialed my work number again - why does no one correct their contacts. It's not that hard. Now my morning's been wasted listening to a sales pitch I don't remember even making.
Coffee machine just spit out my last dollar instead of coffee. Literally, it poured change on my to-go cup. Now I have to spend my whole morning explaining why I'm trying to buy a new one with a bu...
Just spent the last 10 minutes trying to fold a fitted sheet, only to remember I bought one with the stupid corner tabs that don't actually fit into those tabs. Now I'm staring at 6 wrinkled bits o...
Went to grab my keys from the coffee table and accidentally turned off the Bluetooth on my phone. Now I need to manually connect it to my car's aux input instead of just syncing it like I always do...
Somebody actually asked the barista at Starbucks to remake their coffee because it said 304370 on the receipt, like somehow the receipt's barcode is a personal affront. As if I haven't spent countl...
Stood in queue at that automated checkout thing and realized, for the hundredth time, they still can't read stickers or codes on loose produce – ended up having to wait even longer for a human to...
Some genius decided to place road blocks right in front of the traffic lights downtown, so now every time the lights turn green, they get completely stopped by the road work. The cars in front of m...
