What was your first world problem today?

I had one in Coles.

 

The deli server asked who was first (because they NEVER use the **bleep**ING ticket system, am I right?) and I indicated truthfully that the (well-fed) woman to my left  was first.

 

Stupid me.

 

Well-fed woman had to taste everything before she asked for it all to be specially sliced for her.  Already sliced turkey breast or ham wasn't good enough for her, no siree! She neeeded THICK slices of everything.

 

Deli server: "Is this thick enough madam?"

 

Well-fed woman: "Hmm let me see....."

 

Oh, and then she insisted that she only have 400 grams and ONLY 400 grams of all the stuff she had tatsed and asked to be specially sliced just for her.  I think she had her lunch at the deli counter...

 

ARGH!!!

LOL Fiesta! I'm surprised Telstra even advised you before cutting your service!

My problem? Being held up at roadworks at an intersection I use between 4 and 6 times a day. I could take a different route, but I would use tons more petrol and highway crossings etc. are more difficult going around another way.

Blimey!  Did iPhone auto correct your post?

 

I went through weeks of my phone translating OK to yhk or something.  My foofoo valve hasn't busted this week... yet.

It's terrible isn't it Lic.

 

Everywhere I have been over the last week or two is difficult.  Roadworks everywhere.  It must be budget time at the local councils or something.

Yeah J* I reckon that's exactly what it is. Although, our council LOVES putting in ridiculous 'things' in the road for what seems to be no good reason. The peanut at the end of the bridge is a shining example. And the trees down the middle of the road with the new works another. LOL.

our school only has one road in and out, the road comes off a pretty busy main road that services the area.

 

8 weeks school holidays - no roadworks.

 

The morning that school went back - they were there with roadworks.

 

They were only there 3 hours each morning for that week, between 7am and 10am,

 

Yep, right when all the school traffic was there, with 600 families and staff etc all trying to get into the area, they come in with road works. as soon as the heavy traffic is finished, they go for smoko and then move somewhere else.


Some people can go their whole lives and never really live for a single minute.
