Mildly annoyed, for a brief period of time.
I’m reviewing a piece of exercise equipment. It’s doing something absurd, obviously poorly designed and never tested. There’s a simple fix but I feel like I shouldn’t have to do the fix (leave weights on it).
I contacted the company. Looks like I’m the first person to ever put one together. They pulled one from the warehouse and built it, confirming what I said, then concluded 'just leave weights on it. Ok, why don’t you just admit that it’s poorly designed and never tested, and tell me you’ll fix it. Instead try and tell me it’s fine, when it’s not.
Unfortunately, and it is unfortunate, my review gets published on the sales platform. They’ll never sell a one with my review there.

Amazon has a 4-8 AM delivery option with people using their own vehicles. Two mornings in a row at 4:30 the car pulls into our driveway setting off our driveway sensor and the security cameras waking me up only for them to be the neighbors packages and nothing being delivered to our house

I’ve lived here for 2 months and already had to replace 3 smoke detector batteries.
I never select the option to deliver my packages at a time when the delivery people shouldn’t be working. Amazon already treats their drivers terribly enough without it.

I’m only working a half day this week, and it’s today. Decided to come into the office to get away from the distractions of being at home (lots of things to get done before I’m back on Tuesday), and thought the office would be quieter. But they’re doing construction on the floor above mine, and there are loud drilling and banging sounds directly above where I’m sitting, so I’m not sure I did myself any favors.

Amazon delivered a package to our house yesterday, addressed to a house almost a mile away, on a different street that doesn’t even intersect our street or have a name that sounds at all like our street.
Our adult daughter opened it (not sure why; presumably didn’t notice the address and perhaps was expecting something from Amazon). It was cat supplies, so I dropped it off at the proper address this morning.
(FWIW, today my daughter did receive an Amazon package she had ordered, but it contained a single item, far too large to fit into yesterday’s box.)

Unpacking from return trip to the store.
“You forgot to get the onion and celery.”
“I bought everything on the list. You forgot to put it on there.”
Stares.
“Guess I’ll go back to the store. Again.”

I had to force a new nose stud in, the ring I’ve had in there for a couple months was apparently thinner and the hole started closing a bit. Not pleasant.

Trying to listen to Mrs. Hoffman go on about the $88 TV at Wal-Mart that she didn’t get, and then she’s explaining that it doesn’t make sense to get the 50% off for WalMart+ when we can get the student discount on it from Child #4 [note: the student price is the same as getting 50% off] but she wants the WalMart+ price for something even though she won’t use WalMart+ stuff.
I’m starting to wonder if this is a sign that I should start working in the office again.

This has happened to me a few times. I order a lot of packages from Amazon so I sometimes don’t glance at the address. Usually, its because they dropped off the package because my neighbour was not in (they seem to do this at random as its various houses down and not simply next door).
Same. I don’t want delivery drivers pulling up to my house between 11pm and 8am. The dog will go nuts and wake us up.
I’m getting 857 calls a day from numbers with the same area code as my phone (which does not match where I live) trying to sell me Medicare Advantage plans. I am not even 50, let alone 65.
This last one was a recording: Hi! I’m Jessica. How you are doing today?

Well? How are you doing today?
Almost all the time the misdeliveries to our house is the neighbor higher-numbered than us. That may because they order more than the lower-numbered neighbor (only once that I recall). Also once each for two neighbors nearly directly across the street. And once, which may have be the postal service instead of Amazon, for a house 5 down the street, whose 4 digit address is off from ours in the 10’s digit. This is the first time I recall getting one not from our street.
Have been already forgotten, from the AO, that’s it’s how you doin’ ?

Yeah, “how you doing” is at least like somewhat normal slang. “How you are doing” is someone coding up the fake person script incorrectly.
I forgot to run the dishwasher last night, and the frying pan that I prefer to use for eggs is dirty.
