You know how there are parts in movies when people know that their day is gonna be horrible?
You see it all the time!
But it doesn’t JUST happen in movies:
What’s a “Today is going to suck” red flag?
byu/redmambo_no6 inAskReddit
The people of Reddit know a red flag when they see one.
1. Bad kitty.
The cat sh*tting on the floor even though she has a PERFECTLY fine litter box to use
– KittenMeRightMeow6
2. Don’t sweat it.
Learning on the news or a weather app that it’s gonna be really hot.
– MoonWarriorAutumn
3. TP emergency.
Running out of toilet paper while taking a morning sh*t.
– NurMangelnHier
4. What a morning.
Finding out the milk has gone off AFTER you have taken a swig of coffee.
Then when you get dressed, you find that the ‘clean’ blouse isn’t actually clean because the grease stain didn’t come out. And all your other shirts are waiting to be washed so you will have to attend that meeting with a very obvious stain right on the boob area.
And then your umbrella breaks on the way to work. And your car is in the garage being fixed and you don’t live on a bus route, so you have to walk.
At this point I’d call in sick and just go back to bed.

5. Too cool for school.
Waking up to 20 degrees with 30mph wind, plus drizzling rain, when you’ve got to drive 100 miles to a jobsite by 7am.

6. Thanks, mom.
When your mom wakes you up with an attitude yelling about something you didn’t do or claiming you did something you didn’t.
You’re supposed always start the day off with a smile but getting yelled at isn’t smile material to me :/

12. Ding dong.
Hearing your work email ding on your phone before the alarm goes off… and there are 5 or 6 responses dinging quickly after.
– EvictYou
13. The morning ambush.
For me, it’s hearing my name being called the exact moment I open, or even touch, my bedroom door.
I call it “the morning ambush”, and it’s never a good sign.

27. Your call is important to us.
On hold for an hour and told to leave a callback number so I don’t have to wait in a queue.
Get the callback an hour later and get told I am next in line.
Stay on hold for another hour only to have someone pick up and immediately hang up on me.
Not a great start, but that means there is ample room for improvement.
