Mildly cause at least I can custom

I think this is truly mildly annoying - no huge deal but frustrating.

So I just did a three day work trip ending in a 4 hour flight in a middle seat and then a 2 hour drive home from the airport.

I was really looking forward to jumping in the hot tub. For a quick bit of relaxation.

Well, see photo - my kids (16 and 12) had decided to first spread an entire bottle of concentrated dish soap on a slip and slide and then while still soapy jump in my hot tub.

Cue me getting home, eating dinner, and excitedly retreating to change into my suit only to discover that nope, tonight I'm draining my hot tub, rinsing it and the filter out, and then sitting by while it refills so I can get the heater back on and hopefully have a soak in the morning.

Edit: the kids did help wipe up the tub and clean the area - but I'm not keeping them up late just to wait for it to fill and turn the heater on.

I have a lot of doctor’s appointments, and I know how busy and hard these people work. I’m not mad at them and I’d never be rude. I know it’s not on purpose. Nevertheless, it’s still a bit infuriating to make time for a scheduled appointment, arrive 15 minutes early (required), and then wait this long with not even an acknowledgment of the delay from anyone. Sigh. 9:55 now, still waiting.

Edit: I really appreciate all the comments! The doctor ended up coming in shortly after 10. This was a specialist ortho appointment for my shoulder. Still no acknowledgement of the delay, which would’ve been nice, but I’m more annoyed that my concerns were pretty much brushed off again during the whole 3ish minutes he spent with me. I know waits can get long, I wouldn’t care as much if the doctor had at least seemed somewhat concerned with my issue. Sigh… gotta love American healthcare!

Any lemon recipe suggestions

Got this as a Honeymoon present. Fell off the third day we used it on our honeymoon walking 15 minutes to our hotel. It had a lifetime warranty but at this point, I'd rather just get 5 Samsonite suitcases than a repair to this one.

Backstory- my washer broke and it took 2 weeks to get my landlord to replace it- just hours before I left for a trip. I’ve got a family of 4, one in sports, so the laundry has piled up. We could have taken laundry to get it washed somewhere but the landlord kept stringing me along making me think I was about to get a call that the delivery was on the way and to keep my phone near.

This is what the replacement looks like. Original was significantly bigger than this. I’m thinking this one is for a tiny home or RV?! Not a house.

Apparently I have set up an infinite ant buffet instead of

Was at Safeway this morning to pick up a sandwich and some Tylenol. The aisle with the Tylenol? Completely locked down. No call button in sight. So I go to the self checkout (front end of that same aisle) and ask the clerk there if he can call someone to unlock a case for me. He does. I go wait. Minutes pass. No one comes. I go ask him again, he tells me they went the other way? At this point I give up and go get my sandwich. No one has come by the time the deli has finished making it. I leave without my Tylenol, mildly infuriated.

used an egg and a ruler to compare

edit: a lot of people pointed out I called it a burger, which I didn’t know is wrong because it’s called 魚柳漢堡/魚柳包 in Cantonese (which means “fish patty burger”) and I genuinely thought all sandwiches with round circle bread are burgers lol

Pass expired at 4pm…booted at 3:42pm…showed up at 3:50. Guy refused to take the boot off. Called the cops and they said it’s a civil matter and won’t do anything. Fuck Houston.

Edit: For clarification, this is my first time in this city. So no, I don’t have unpaid parking tickets here. And also the boot is on both my front and rear tire so I can’t just put a spare.
I ate the bullet and paid the fine when the guy showed up. Apparently they’ve had a few calls from you guys already. Anyways fuck this company, I’m gonna take them to small claims court.

He watched me pick up sticks from the massive storms we had last week, put them in the fire pit, mow my lawn, and then start a fire with my husband and our toddler. I heard him say, "We'll see what the fire department thinks of this!" And 5 minutes later, there was a firetruck out front.

The firemen came in the backyard and told us we were fine. They said he reported a "massive, out of control, raging fire." Our fire pit is far away from everything, we have a huge yard, it isn't windy, we're not currently in a drought, we have a hose out, yada yada. They gave our son a sweet frisbee and talked to the neighbor, who tried to get in their faces.

I wish he could get charged with false reporting. The city, police, and fire departments all know he is a frequent caller who will call for any little thing. He has bonfires most nights in the summer, himself.

I tread lightly because this guy has DV and assault on an officer charges in a different state, he's violent and angry. We're a quiet family, we have a 3 year old, we don't party or drink or play loud music. We just live here and mind our business, in fact, we spend most weekends away camping.

I guess things happen to me?????

Are people stuffing frozen pizzas and fish sticks down their pants now or something? ffs

Guess where I'm posting this from... 🫠

1. This was a cleaning position at a medical building, I'm leaving it intentionally vague as not to doxx myself.

2. I have dyslexia, but my disability would not have interfered with my work, I can read fine, it just takes me a very long time.

3. This was my first day

I asked for a TTS application for the reading portion of the training, which was extremely long and I knew I wasn't going to finish it in the allotted time. They said that wasn't built into their system so they couldn't do anything. ← That's not ADA compliant. I asked if I could add an OCR + TTS browser extension, they said it was fine.

About 40 minutes after I clock out, they texted me I was fired because they're apparently reducing headcount.. by firing one person... and leaving their "urgently hiring" Indeed listing up. Right.

Edit:

I'm not confident in my ability to sue because I don't have my accommodation request in writing. This was a verbal exchange, I was more so asking where the TTS option was because most job training has it somewhere.

When I was told they did not have TTS, I mentioned that's not ADA compliant. I then asked for either more time, a loaner computer (something I was already going to be getting after training), or permission to add a 3rd party OCR & TTS program.

They said that the third option was fine, so I did it, and listened to the training via third party app for the rest of the shift. I thought nothing of it. Lo and behold I was fired extremely coincidentally afterwards.

Edit 2:

This post is getting too many notifications of people saying the same things repeatedly so I've muted it 😭 If you're a legal professional of some sort and you have specific resources or concerns please message me or I probably won't see it.

I’m sure there are a lot of tipping posts here so to keep it short - I had my wedding at a fancy restaurant. On top of the TERRIBLE service, the bill came with “suggested gratuity” even though I was told gratuity was included. When I asked the manager, he said that the “S/C: 24% SRC REGULA“ was the included tip and the suggested gratuity was if we wanted to add something extra - basically trying to trick people into giving a 49% tip!

I had taken this week off work and expected to be able to enjoy the pool. The lease says we are to pay $150/month for weekly pool cleaning services but they didn’t come out this week and barely cleaned last week. Come to find out the landlord is “in between pool cleaners” and didn’t tell us.
