The Definition of a bad day

    So....

    Went to sleep after 5.30 this morning, up at 8.20 this morning to go to work for a 9hr shift.

    Get into work to find both the coffee machine and the water boiler are broken, as well as the sky box on the blink.

    The girlfriend arrives in at about 10.15-30. A lovely small dog has followed her from the apt to the front door of work. she brings me out to see the dog and it is a very affectionate dog. playing with the dog for about 30 seconds and it decides to run onto the street..... it didn't stand a chance, the car had no way of avoiding the dog, BUT why didn't the car stop.

    Picking the poor dog up off the ground with traffic backed up on the street is about the hardest thing i've ever had too do, all the while the girlfriend was in histerics.

    please tell me other people have had just as bad days

    This guy has you beat...
    A resident of Nagasaki, Yamaguchi was in Hiroshima on business for his employer Mitsubishi Heavy Industries when the city was bombed at 8:15am on August 6, 1945. The following day he returned to Nagasaki and, despite his wounds, returned to work on August 9, the day of the second atomic bombing. In 1957 he was recognized as a hibakusha (explosion-affected person) of the Nagasaki bombing, but it was not until March 24, 2009 that the government of Japan officially recognised his presence in Hiroshima three days earlier. He died of stomach cancer on January 4, 2010.

    Got woken up this morning by a dog barking,
    my mam cooked me rashers for breakfast but she burnt them :(
    I ended up eating them anyway and felt sick.
    Later got a text from some girl I really liked back in school,
    she wanted to meet but Ive no car and the bus doesnt go near her house.
    Decided to play some basketball with friends instead but fuked up my hands from the cold!
