For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
Businesses keeping bankers hours, especially banks, should stop immediately. How could it possibly be a good idea to only be open during the main times that no one has free time to run errands? Why do I have to use PTO to go to the mechanic, or the doctor? Why can’t these places, which require you to visit them in person, be open during the days and hours during the week that people actually have time to visit them in person?
Some doctors overbook, too. Like airlines do. Can’t tell you the number of times I scheduled an appointment months in advance with my old doctor where I specifically ask for the first appointment slot of the day. Because I know they get more and more backed up as the day goes on, so if possible, you want to go in early. And I can’t tell you how many times they call in a different patient first to see the same doctor I made the appointment with. So I have to wait in the waiting room for another 30-60 minutes past my scheduled time.
I stopped going to that particular doctor, and mostly just go to doc in the box now. Computer check in, first come, first serve.
My old doctor was also one of those places that would call, text, and email you fifty times to remind you of the appointment. Because the doctor’s time is precious and fuck you, patients.
I understand a doctor’s time is very valuable. But goddamit, other people value their time, too.
See, that gets in the way of the doctor’s tee time.
The real issue (imo) is that so many businesses that don’t require in person labor insist on keeping factory hours (and more often than not in-person labor). If your job doesn’t require daylight, you should be allowed to set whatever hours that work for you.
Also bring back 24hr grocery stores and go back to doing stocking overnight, you cheap cowards.
This drives me nuts too, but most of them fall into one of two categories. They are either B2B so don’t care about individual consumers, or they are “lifestyle” businesses with basically one employee who doesn’t or can’t work excessive hours.
