First World Bad Days

I worked a couple extra hours at my desk job today and have a slight crick in my neck.
 
Earlier this week, I went to Dollar General, only to see that my favorite Glade scent was not stocked on the shelf. In a fit of pique, I approached the manager to express my frustration, and asked her to replenish the product. She had the temerity to say that it wasn't her job; both Glade and Air Wick products are serviced by a separate merchandiser. I then proceeded to go to work nonplussed and distracted by this lack of effort on their part. How is a person supposed to work efficiently without the correct setting of Cashmere Woods gently wafting through the office? In order to clear my mind of this injustice, I had to shut my door to avoid the pungent odor of cheap cologne (Drakkar Valheim, I believe) emanating from the cubicle of the Accounts Receivable clerk nearby. Ugh. An incalculable, unmitigated workplace disaster.

I feel that. Our water heater makes our water so hot I cannot hold my hand under it for more than 2 seconds. Its on the lowest hot setting, and if I go lower than that the wife complains it does get hot enough.

Is that a wife problem or a water heater problem?

Found a pretty good deal on a shuffleboard table, but then started to look around the basement for a place to put it and realized I'd have to rearrange the entire layout and move the pool table, large sectional, 75" TV, dart board and Golden Tee machine to find a home for it. I think we're going to have to find a way to move on with our lives without shuffleboard.

Addition time.
 
I was walking out the door this morning to the car I drive to work and realized I had grabbed the keys for the car I prefer not to drive to work. I had to walk all the way back inside across my (for the moment) regrettably generous two car attached garage to get the other keys. The alternative was driving a nicer car, but risking it getting slightly dusty in the parking lot. Real Sophie's Choice.

My 160lb Newfoundland likes to wait for me to scoot my office chair into my desk while working from home, then lay against the casters and nap. I get literally trapped at work at home.

Also, I don't have a standing desk at home which is ******* ********.

Oh and 7am meetings. I know I'm on the west coast. Why don't YOU have YOUR meetings later? Or let me schedule a meeting at 3:30pm when it's convenient for ME?

Just got an email that there is a dealer required software update for my truck - called and scheduled and asked about this - found out it likely is the fix for this issue.

Thank you CF.

Have exact same issue with my truck and received same email today, but was told by my dealer (Karl Chevrolet) that it likely WOULD NOT fix this issue
