Mine is that one of my Tesco Chicken Caesar wraps had NO Caesar dressing on it!!! While the other one had obscene amounts on it. Per MN rules I'm not simply livid, but Beyond Livid about this.

So what's Your First World Problem Today?

The voice control in my car didn't understand my instruction to "Call Bob" on the first three attempts, and I had to briefly turn down the aircon in order that the microphone could hear the instruction clearly.

Preparing fresh chillies and then retrieving my mooncup. Ouch.

Atalune · 07/06/2018 21:44

I can get my nails done OR my eyebrows threaded but not both tomorrow and now I must choose as my therapist doesn’t have time to fit me in.

Mine is that I’m absolutely sick of the Thameslink trains being buggered up and had yet another nightmare journey home :(

The waitrose sushi bar had no free samples today Sad they always have samples but none today

helloBuddy · 07/06/2018 21:45

My nail varnish chipped today that I only put on yesterday!

The garage freezer still has too much stuff in to accommodate the fruit of my planned jaunt to Farmfoods. Might have to wait until next week.

I ran out of cumin and you could really taste it in my homemade Taco mix 😩

The Tassimo coffee machine at work only spat out half a cup of coffee this morning so I tried getting it to fill up the rest of the cup and the resulting coffee was revolting (and lukewarm for some reason) and I had to throw it out.

I haven't seen the elastic quite straight on my left ballet shoe and it irritated me every time I caught a glimpse of it in class this evening.

My gardener came a day early and I wasn't in. He only mowed the lawn and wanted weedkiller put down too!

sunshinewithabitofdrizzle · 07/06/2018 21:50

Also, there were carrots in my takeaway Chinese French beans dish. I am allergic to carrots and they have no place being in a dish of French beans in garlic sauce.

Treated myself to a chocolate eclair earlier. Was absolutely outraged to discover it had a chocolate filling instead of a plain cream one.

I'm going in holiday on Saturday, and now I'm too excited to sleep, but I'm tired.

Sarahlou63 · 07/06/2018 21:53

I missed a water bill in April and the authorities have cut my water off. Paid the bill pronto but won't be reconnected until the morning. Will have to clean my teeth in wine tonight. Second world problem.

OhPuddleducks · 07/06/2018 21:53

I asked Alexa if it would rain today. She said no rain was expected. Obviously it rained and as me and DS had gone out without coats etc and he is 4, I had to give him my umbrella and I just got wet. Fucking Alexa.

IDrinkFromTheKegOfGlory · 07/06/2018 21:53

I was really looking forward to my ice cold can of San Pellegrino blood orange and after one sip I realised they've only gone and added sweetners!! Angry
I'd so nearly bought a Dr Pepper but I thought I'd go for something a little nicer. More fool me.

Passthecake30 · 07/06/2018 21:54

I only had magnum minis in the freezer, so I had to have two.

grumpy4squash · 07/06/2018 21:55

I thought the number of share options I was given was too low.

MarsBarsAreShrinking · 07/06/2018 21:56

My new fan is too powerful even on number 1 so I got a bit cold. It doesn't have a remote (like my last one which died this week after many years of loyal service) so I had to get UP to go and switch it off.

MrTrebus · 07/06/2018 21:56

I dropped my car key into the wheelie bin and had to reach in and get it and nearly fell in and then I had to clean it liberally with dettol making me a few minutes late to Costa 😡

chocolateworshipper · 07/06/2018 21:57

I really fancied some chocolate but only had chocolate-chip cookies and Jaffa cakes to choose from

17CherryTreeLane · 07/06/2018 21:58

I had a really hard day at work, then had to come home and tidy up for my cleaner coming tomorrow. It's too much.

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 07/06/2018 21:58

Our au pair moved out today. He has a proper job starting on Monday. We will probably get a summer au pair, and then we will be finished with having au pairs after nearly 7 years of charming, funny, useful, young people living with us. It's the end of an era, and I will have to load my own dishwasher myself. Sad

Reythelastjedi · 07/06/2018 21:59

The wifi wasn't working at the restaurant so I coildn't insta my meal.
