Hotels with plug sockets too far from the mirror

Important emails go into the junk folder

It’s freezing outside but boiling in the office

Surely it would be worse if it was freezing in the office too Forrest ?

 

Some people………🙄

Read the topic header, Mr. Rubble – First World Problems don’t really matter 🤗😉

I never read the topic header properly Forrest. I must admit though that in the past I have been pissed off by work colleagues insisting that the heating stays on, even when it's difficult to breathe in the building.🙄

I know that feeling, Barney, and then there's the ones that insist on having the aircon operating operating all day, giving me right nasty headaches, so I have to go home early to cry into my pillow, and try get some nice young lady to let me spoon with them

Alexa doesn’t respond promptly to instructions

TV remote control stops working and you have to get off the sofa to change channels 🙄

You’ll have to stop asking her to do the vacuuming for you, F. 😉

She didn't mind doing the vacuuming, Charlie, but she did have a problem with the outfits I asked her to wear while doing the housework 😇🤭😇😉
