My job is boring: I've been paid to go on scuba diving expeditions to so many tropical, exotic places that I'm tired of traveling and don't want to go on the next month-long trip to the Great Barrier Reef in September.

I'm going to steal a line from AC, to the effect of "I left my phone at my desk and had nothing to do in the bathroom when I went to poo."

Mine is my wi-fi doesn't reach to the bathroom I use most of the time, so I have to use data to play CoC or surf the web.

There was a "Where's Waldo" puzzle book in the waiting area at my Dentist's office. But when I opened it up I found that someone had circled Waldo in all of the puzzles.

I had to endure 2 Mondays in one week when I took a flight from Japan to the US.

Business, but it was a while ago. I just thought about it now when reading the topic and seeing you're heading over soon. :)

I took a red eye so I could arrive early and be productive, but the hotel didn't have my room prepared yet.

You think that's bad? I took a redeye to be production but the hotel DID have my room ready and the bed was so comfortable I ended up napping instead of being productive.

I had to wait until coming home from work to play the new Deus Ex: Mankind Divided due to it now making its 0000 release time.

the toilet bowl light batteries died while I was away for the weekend. The toilet seat and floor paid dearly for this when I couldn't see the toilet in the dark while half asleep.

***edit***

get one of these if you HATE, turning on the light at night to go to the bathroom. This thing is borderline amazing. No more bathroom blindess!

The batteries in my auto-opening trash can died, so I have to lift the lid myself. Then I have to wash my hands, with my abundant, cheap, clean water, because my hands are dirty.

And now, the FDA has banned anti-bacterial soap. Which, while it didn't actually do me any good, made me feel cleaner.

The heated steering wheel in the Range rover is a bit hotter than I'd like it to be making it difficult to keep on very long.

It's actually the loaner. My Jag has been in and out of the shop for 2yrs now. I have only driven my car for 4 months total out of that time. :x
