You know it is going to be a bad day when ----

You know it's going to be a bad day when the razor you so carefully honed and were pleased with arrives at the owner's home and he's not happy with it!:gaah:

You know it's gonna be a bad day when you can hear water running & there are no leaky taps. It gets worse when you discover it's a hot water leak. The plumber can come & fix it but when he starts digging up the backyard to find it he gives up & calls the leak detector guy that charges like a wounded bull but he can't come till Monday & it's Friday. Eventually he finds the leak but the plumber can't fix it cheaply because it's buried under the storm water pipe , the cold water pipe & the sewrage pipe so you tell the plumber to just cut the pipe off at the source. Now why didn't I think of that before. So now the hot water tank has full pressure once more & next day blows up flooding the laundry. Thankfully it gets replaced with no dramas until the water & electricty bills arrive & have tripled in cost due to the previously undetected leak that's lost you 76 K/litres in addition to your normally used 21K/litres.
That bad day ran too long.

Thanks to everyone for putting my day in perspective and making it wonderful!

One would think that finding that everyone else's day was worse than your own would be comforting but it's actually a bit depressing. We are a sorry lot!

You know it's going to be a bad day when the promotion you are going for and the job you have been doing for the last year goes to someone less qualified who has NO CLUE what they are doing....

You know its going to be a bad day when you get caught at a train crossing by a train on the way to work and catch seemingly every red light then finally get to work late only to reallize its your only day off of the week...

You know it's going to be a bad day when both your kids have been up all night with gastro and when you wake up in the morning to the sound of your wife bent over the toilet saying goodbye to the last meal she ate

When you go to the basement and you see water at the top of the deck drain and your sump pump is shorted out. Hand bailing since 10 PM last night.

Wow I wouldn't by a lottery ticket with any of us . ;)

You know it's going to be a bad day (read: today) when the first conversation you have with your boss is that the raise and promotion you were promised 6 months ago isn't going to happen until at least the end of this year, and the work that you're doing is good, but not good enough, even though you've done in 6 months what it's taken the other locations in the country 18 months to accomplish.

Needless to say, I dropped off a résumé or two on the way home today.
