God and small talk in the office drives me nuts after fixing everyone's dumb problems all day. I usually mutter something about an urgent email and walk away, but half the time they tag along complaining more. Complaining about it never helps though. people just don't get the hint.

Thought the quiet would help my thesis, then the hardware store closes at 5 and the bus runs twice a day. I ended up building a ridiculous schedule with shop hours and a pantry par list because one missed window means no flour until Tuesday. Pitfall was assuming 24-hour anything existed. Tip: set one weekly errand block and keep a small backup stash of staples.
