What's Bugging You?

Here is a chance for you to sound off at the frustrations in your daily life. Being disabled presents all of us with certain challenges, and we all have to face them in our own way.
The thing that bugs me is when others throw road blocks in our way. Case in point, my electric wheelchair went down. The company who promised fast and reliable service when they got the other chair, took a week to pick it up. Then comes the evaluation period, followed by numerous phone calls which leaves you more frustrated. It's been weeks, and still no chair. I am lucky, I have a backup. If I didn't, I would be stuck in bed all this time, and we all know the problems that can cause.
Well that's what's bugging me today.

Do you have any horror stories you want to share?
We plan to use the info to document the severity of these problems and bring it to the attention of those who can influence positive changes in the system.
