Worst Tuesday I've had in 15 years of service work

Last Tuesday I had to redo a whole panel swap in Oakdale because the homeowner's 200 amp main lug kit was the wrong part number. Then I drove 45 minutes to a service call where they wanted me to fix a three way switch that wasn't even wired right by some handyman. By 4 PM I was so beat I nearly backed my van into a brand new fence. Has anyone else had a single day that just snowballed like that?

Used to think those days were just bad luck but man, this changed my mind completely. One thing after another like that is some kind of curse.

@barnes.brian I used to just shrug it off as a weird day too, but after getting three flat tires in one month and then my phone dying right when I needed GPS, I started thinking maybe some people really do have bad mojo following them around. The thing that got me was when my coffee machine broke the same day my car's check engine light came on and then I slipped on the stairs all within like six hours. It feels less like coincidence and more like someone put a hex on you when everything lines up that perfectly wrong.
