    I just dropped my soda in my lap, in my car and it’s my lunch break so I gotta go back to work looking like I peed myself. 🧐

    I hate when that happens

    Speaking as someone who pees themself regularly, just roll with it. If you can pretend it never happened? Everyone else will also.

    Bonus: You will smell like soda. Which is a definite upgrade from actual pee smell. (I do carry a deodorizer spray in my emergency kit)

    My pet peeve today is fleas.
    Especially the little buggers who are reminding me I forgot to give the cats their monthly dose.

    Customer calling me baby girl. He switched to sweetheart when I didn’t respond but like, idk why baby girl was pissing me off so much but I can’t stand that and princess too.
    I’m not busy but he called me over for nothing. Wanted me to tell some guy he had grey in sideburns that didn’t so.🤷🏻‍♀️🙄

    This morning I'm irked by low water pressure in the shower in my hotel room. It's actually more like nonexistent water pressure. 😑

    Gross. It would bother me, too.

    Both do, honestly, but I can tolerate "sweetheart" more since I heard it a lot growing up and having spent the last four years living in a place where "sweetheart" was a weird default for a bunch of well-meaning, polite old men.

    "Baby girl" and "princess" are both ruined for me because of the sexual/sexist connotation and how I hear them most often used. Just.. NO. Sorry you had to put up with that. :neutral:

    @OpheliaCooter that does sound incredibly irksome so I’m sorry I giggled. Perhaps it’s a scavenger hunt? Maybe Google wants to take you on an adventure! 😉
