20 Bugs

20 Bugs

1.  Switching my clothes from the washer machine to the dryer is an extra step that I don't think should be part of the process of doing laundry, You must pay attention to the laundry to make sure you do not leave it sitting in the washer machine to long after it is done. There should be one machine that does both washing and drying even if it takes a little longer.

2. I think all doors should be able to swing both ways. There are many situations where it be more convenient for the door to swing the other way.

3. Not feeling too hot or too cold in bed. I consistently switch from under the covers to being over the covers because I am either too hot or too cold. There should be a blanket or bed that can control its temperature.

4. I hate when I have food expire in the fridge. There should be a way that I can just scan the food in my fridge and be notified that there is food is expiring soon.

5. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and I tend to skip it the most because I am rushing to be somewhere in morning. There should be a way to have freshly made breakfast already made for you in the morning just like there are coffee machines that make coffee every morning at the same time.

6. I don't like losing things. There should be a way to stick a little tracker that is not noticeable onto anything you'd like to always be able to keep track of it. Things like keys, wallet or a maybe a very expensive water cup.

7. Traffic is a huge bug and frustrates me every time I deal with it. Everyone is headed home from work at around 5 o'clock and its almost impossible to avoid.

8. I also do not like when traffic signals that are not programmed to deal with traffic correctly. It bugs me when I have to wait multiple light signal cycles for me to get through and the people intersecting have lights that last much longer.

9. Another bug would be voting. The process to get my vote in is very long. I either go to a place to vote and have to stand in very long lines or I mail in my vote which won't be counted unless it is necessary.

10. I do not like waiting in a long line to use the bathroom while I am out with my friends. There are usually multiple people waiting to use only one stall.

11. While I am at the movies and I need to refill, I have to miss part of the movie so I can hydrate myself. I am not allowed to pause the movie or there is not waiter that comes up to me when my drink is empty.

12. When you finally land in final destination after a long day of traveling and then you have to wait to get your luggage which can take a long time.

13. It bugs me when I leave apartment layered in clothing because it is cold and then by midday I am sweating because it is 20 degrees hotter. I then don't know whether to just sweat it out or to take of some layers and carry them around.

14. Waiting for a bus at the bus stop longer than expected is a bug of mine. I use the bus app but the app is usually never accurate with the ETA of the bus. I then rush to the stop to end up waiting for a while.

15. Having to drive to South Florida to visit family. It is more expensive to fly to South Florida from Gainesville then to drive but it is less expensive to fly from South Florida across the country.

16. My roommates will let their dishes pile up in the sink so then I don't have room in the sink to actually clean my dish when I am done with it. My roommates like using the dishwasher but I don't think it does a sufficient job of cleaning everything.

17. It bugs me that most things you subscribe to you have to put your credit card information even if you just want the free part of the subscription.  I should be able to get a free trial without entering my credit card info.

18. Going to the gym in the afternoon is crazy. There are usually too many people there and I am not able to go through my workout the way I please because other people are using all of the machines.

19. Not being able to connect to the UF Wifi occasionally bugs me a lot. I go to campus almost everyday and on some days I can not connect to the Wifi.

20. Having roommates that stay up late every night and make a lot of noise. I have to wake up early and my inconsiderate roommates are screaming at very late hours.

Reflection:
I could not come up with the 20 bugs in one sitting. I had to put myself in other peoples shoes and had to do the assignment at different parts of the day, in different environments to get all 20 bugs. It was slightly difficult determining whether my bugs were actual bugs or if they were easily solvable pet peeves. Most of these bugs occur often and unavoidable. Actually thinking and analyzing these bugs makes me feel like I will have a better approach on coping with them next time.
