Bug List

1. Doors that are made mostly of glass
     -People constantly put there fingers on the glass making it dirty.
2. Map apps that provide only a couple of alternative routes
     -The provided routes tend to keep people on main roads which are often backed up with traffic.
3. The process of taking a shower.
     -Showers are time consuming and it feels like there are so many things that you need to do while in the shower before you can be done.
4. Wobbly shopping carts at different department or grocery stores.
     - When the carts are off balance, they tend to be loud and difficult to push.
5.  When electronic devices freeze and need to be restarted.
     - The time it takes to restart an electronic device is way too long.
6.  The lack of seating in Starbucks.
     - Starbucks was created for people to be able to work inside (that's why they offer free wifi), but there is never enough room for each customer to have a seat and get work done.
7.  The unusually small tables found in Starbucks.
     - There is absolutely no space for multiple items at the small round tables found in most Starbucks.
8.  Garbage day is only once a week.
     - It only takes one small piece of trash to make everything smell terrible and there's nothing to do about it until garbage day comes around and the trash can be thrown away.
9.  When large bags are given to customers who bought a small item.
     - What about the environment and why is it necessary to put a small item in a huge bag.
10.  Trying to get the rest of the toothpaste out of the tube.
     - It's like a battle trying to get the rest of the toothpaste out of the tube.
11. Hand sanitizer leaves a sticky residue
     - It makes my hands feel more dirty than they previously were.
12. When there are only electric hand dryers in public bathrooms.
     -They take longer to dry my hands.
13. I can't comfortably get work done while sitting comfortably on a couch.
     - There isn't a portable desk that I can use to work on while sitting on the couch.
14. Thin plastic bags used for groceries.
     -  Thin bags often tear easily making it more difficult to carry your groceries to your destination.
15. Cleaning water bottles that have a straw built into it (Camelbak bottles)
     - The straw often doesn't get cleaned because you can't take the bottle apart to clean each individual piece that the liquid flows through.
16. Cracking an egg when cooking.
     - It's nearly impossible to get all of the wet regions of the egg into a bowl or pan without it getting on the surface you cracked the egg on.
17. When the ice machines that are built into refrigerators offer a crushed ice option.
     - Whether you want crushed ice or whole cubes, the refrigerator often shoots out crushed ice which often sprays all over the place missing both the cup and the ice tray.
18. School desks that have a small surface to work on.
     - All of the things I'm working on need to be stacked on top one another because there isn't enough room to lay the pages side by side.
19. The inability to try on clothes while online shopping.
     - Some clothes can only be found online whether because they are out of stock in store or because you are ordering from a different country and you want to be sure it will fit prior to buying the item.
20. When emails won't load until after the app is open.
     - The notifications are turned on to alert you when you have a message, if the only way you can check to see if you got an email is to open the app, then its pointless.

This assignment was very hard for me. Most of the things that bug me have to do with people rather than items so the problems cannot be easily fixed.  I also realized that I am (for the most part) rather calm and optimistic when it comes to using things.  If something doesn't work properly, I usually just forget about it and move onto something else.  Also, trying to come up with the "whys" for this assignment was challenging.  There are some things that bug me and I don't necessarily know why, it just does.  Overall, the assignment really made me think outside of my everyday life.
