One Knows They are Having a Bad Day When:


  • They are late and rush to get to work only to realize they are still wearing their pajamas.

  • They look for their wallet and find it in the washing machine after they washed their clothes.

  • They are stopped by a police officer and their driver's license expired 5 months ago.

  • They place a curbside order in Phoenix, AZ. Then, get an Email that their order is ready for pickup in Carlsbad, New Mexico.

    When I wrote this about a curbside order, never did I think it could actually happen to me. I only saw the possibility of it happening.

    GUESS WHAT? It happened! I placed a local order here and the default retail location is Conroe, TEXAS. Conroe Texas is 963 miles from here as the crow flies.

    I woke up at 2:05 am and thought I would check on the order. I got an email that my order would be delivered to Conroe, Texas!

    When the situation was resolved, I closed my account at that store.
