And you could write a Russian novel about the despair I have when someone says “Hang on, wait a minute, you still clearly have eggs in the fridge and a pan which is still warm. Why can’t you serve the eggs you were prepared to serve 63 seconds ago?!”

With exceptions, this generalizes to a whole host of interactions where there is any sort of clear rule book to follow. The rules brook no argument. And if there is no rule book, or (worse) your situation isn’t in the rule book, getting it done is extraordinarily complex.

I haven’t been to Wendy’s in 8 years because I walked in the door to order breakfast at 10:40 and nobody came to the register until 10:50 at which point they refused to sell me breakfast (the menu said they served until 11).

I almost got into it with the convenience store clerk who *yelled* at me (Sydney, Aus) to “hurry up, I need to close” as I took an extra 30 seconds to pick a bag of chips. At 10:50 pm, with a clearly advertised 11:00 pm closing time.

No recession in living memory leads me to believe Sydney is pretty unique for this. Once blasted for trying to buy a BBQ at 2.30PM with a 3 PM closing time, as it was “not the time for questions”!

My wife saw this as a JET, kids sent to school with chemical heat packs because it was not the season for radiators / already super humid and radiators on full blast.

Yup. Same with many train lines and turning on AC or turning off heaters. If the temp outside is a certain degree they won't turn them off/on. But im sorry...YOU DONT NEED A HEATER IN A TRAIN PACKED WITH HOT BODIES AND COATS!
