I heard about a travel baseball game where the umpire was clearly biased towards one of the teams. He would overlook obvious rule violations by that team while being very strict with the other team. It was so unfair that the team on the receiving end of this bad umpiring felt completely cheated. They lost the game, but more importantly, they lost their trust in the fairness of the competition.
Sure. There was a match where an umpire made a wrong decision regarding a run - out. The batsman was clearly in his crease, but the umpire gave him out. This had a huge impact on the outcome of the game as the team that lost the batsman due to this wrong call could not recover from the setback.
Sure. There was a traveler who booked a diving tour. When they got on the boat, they realized that the safety equipment was in a really bad state. The oxygen tanks were old and rusty. During the dive, one of the tanks started to malfunction. Luckily, the diver managed to surface quickly with the help of the instructor, but it was a terrifying experience.
There was an incident where a customer's locker was broken into at an Orangetheory studio. When they reported it to the staff, the staff seemed unconcerned and took a long time to even start looking into the matter. They didn't offer any immediate assistance or compensation to the customer for their lost items, which made the customer extremely disappointed with the overall customer service at the studio.
Sure. There was a team traveling for a softball game. They reached the destination, but on the day of the game, there was a huge thunderstorm. The field was flooded, and the game was postponed indefinitely. They had already spent a lot on travel and accommodation, and had to wait around for days in the hope that the field would dry up enough to play, but it never did, and they had to go back home without playing the game.
Well, there was this one case where a travel nurse got a patient who was constantly trying to harm himself. The nurse had to be on high alert all the time. But the hospital didn't provide enough support in terms of proper restraints or additional staff. She was really stressed out trying to keep the patient safe while also taking care of other patients.
On a travel ball team I knew, there was a financial issue. The team promised a certain level of facilities and training, but they cut corners. We had to practice on really bad fields. It was a disappointment as we were all paying a lot of money to be on the team.
Sure. There was a case where a traveler checked into a budget hotel. The sheets were full of stains and the bathroom was filthy. There were also strange noises at night that made it impossible to sleep well.
Sure. There was a traveler who booked a luxury resort stay through Costco Travel. When they got there, the resort was undergoing major renovations. There was construction noise all day long, and parts of the resort like the pool and some restaurants were closed. The traveler was not informed about this at all before arrival. They felt very cheated as they had paid a high price for a relaxing vacation.
Here's one. A solo traveler was in a car accident while on a road trip in another country. His travel insurance was meant to cover the cost of vehicle repair and his medical treatment. But the insurance company tried to low - ball the repair estimate and also said that some of his medical treatments were not necessary, so they wouldn't cover them. He had to pay a significant amount from his own savings just to get back on his feet and continue his journey.
Sure. There was once a beholder named Zorg. Zorg was overconfident and decided to attack a small village that he thought was unprotected. But little did he know that the village had a hidden group of powerful mages. As soon as Zorg showed up, the mages cast a spell that blinded him temporarily. He was then surrounded by the villagers who started pelting him with enchanted rocks that disrupted his magic. Zorg had a really bad time trying to escape and ended up losing one of his eye stalks in the process.
