Live trip report: a quick trip back to the real world

[JustCor]

I did tech support in a former life. It's not a fun job. People aren't calling you because they're happy that you exist. They're calling because something isn't working and they want it fixed. What tends to happen more often than not is that the thing works but they didn't do something simple to make it work (is it plugged in? Did you turn it on?) It they tried to fix it themselves and made it considerably worse. When they realize it's something simple, they tend to get more angry and take it out on tech support. I understand. I'm very mindful of those things. You would be shocked at how many people have asked me to fix their iPhones because it's not ringing anymore and the fix is as simple as flipping the switch on the side. It happens. I also have a pretty good handle on how to troubleshoot a problem and resolve most issues on my own. Call it an additional perk of working a tough job.

It's frustrating that I just walked through the steps that I took to troubleshoot my door problem and the first thing she asks me is if I've tried my MagicBand. Yes, as I said right off the bat.

I'm frustrated. I was frustrated earlier because I was essentially forgotten at lunch. I was hoping to go out and just forget about it. Instead, my frustration is compounded by trying to get a door fixed.

Well I hate to sound like so many on these boards, but did you express that displeasure to those of higher authority? It may be minor issues but they stack up!

I did not. Instead, I left. I'm laying comfortably in my own bed.

So, my trip is over a little early. I looked at the schedule of things going on and saw that Hollywood Studios was closed, AK was closing soon, MK had MVMCP, and I wasn't hungry and didn't feel any strong desire to go to Epcot or Disney Springs. I took stock of everything that I had hoped to accomplish and what I would gain by staying the night and decided home was where my heart was. So, I loaded up the car, happened to get an excellent music playlist playing and had a very sweet drive home. Details and pics and all that fun stuff will be in the full trip report at some point tonight or tomorrow.

Thank you to everyone for following along. Until next time!

I know the feeling of wanting your own bed. I get anxious missing my pets. I know they are well taken care of, but I still worry.

Glad your trip was successful, maybe a little wonky, but you accomplished what you wanted. Being that you are so close, hope to read another of your reports soon. And report back about the job interview result!

Well I'm now I guess I better start gearing up for mine!
