I've heard of a mechanic who lost some parts while working on a car. Instead of admitting it, he tried to make do with other parts that didn't really fit. This led to all sorts of problems with the car's performance. Mechanics should be more responsible and honest.
There was a case where a mechanic was supposed to replace a radiator. But instead of a new one, he just patched up the old, leaking radiator and charged for a new one. When the car overheated again soon after, the owner found out what had happened. It's so unethical.
My worst roommate horror story involves a roommate who had a pet without permission. The pet made a mess all over the place, chewed on furniture, and was not properly trained. The other roommates were allergic to the pet, but the roommate with the pet didn't care and refused to get rid of it or keep it in control.
One of the worst mechanic horror stories I've heard was about a guy who took his car in for a simple oil change. When he got it back, there were strange noises coming from the engine. Turns out the mechanic had used the wrong type of oil filter, which caused a blockage. It cost him a fortune to fix the damage that could have been easily avoided with proper attention to detail.
A friend of mine had a date who took her to a really seedy part of town. The place was dirty and there were some really sketchy - looking people around. She was so scared and just wanted to leave right away. It was a really bad choice of location for a date.
A friend of mine once went on a Tinder date. The guy she met was much older than his profile picture showed. He was also drunk when they met. He started slurring his words and making inappropriate jokes. My friend felt really unsafe and had to call a friend to come pick her up.
I once heard of a person who received a pair of shoes that were two sizes too small. It was clear that the giver didn't even know the recipient's shoe size. The person couldn't wear the shoes at all and it was such a waste of a gift. It seemed like the giver just grabbed something without considering if it would be suitable. If they had taken a moment to check or ask, they could have chosen a better gift like a nice scarf or a wallet.
A friend of mine got a call from a telemarketer who started yelling at her when she said she didn't want the product. It was completely unacceptable behavior.
I heard about a person who had gerd so bad that it damaged their esophagus over time. They had to go through a lot of medical treatments and had to be really careful with their diet all the time. It was a horror story in terms of the long - term effects on their health.
A friend of mine who worked at a hotel had a customer who checked in late and then complained about everything. The room was too cold, the sheets were too rough, the view was bad. When my friend tried to help, the customer was so mean and told him he was incompetent. Eventually, the customer demanded a full refund and left in a huff.
One of the horror stories I've heard is that a girl took Plan B and then had a very heavy and long - lasting period. It was much worse than her normal periods. She bled through her clothes a couple of times because she didn't expect it to be that bad. It made her feel really embarrassed and also physically weak. She had to take extra iron supplements to make up for the blood loss.
I heard about a flight that got delayed multiple times. First, it was because of a mechanical problem. Then, they had trouble finding a replacement part. The passengers were kept in the airport for over two days. They had to sleep on the hard benches, and the airline only provided minimal food. It was a disaster. There were families with small children, and it was really difficult for them. People missed important events like weddings and funerals because of this delay.
