A Birthday Surprise That Went South

What started as a thoughtful birthday surprise turned into a day of disappointment for our birthday girl. A 4-hour drive, a surprise tattoo, and a time zone mix-up led to a whirlwind of events. Despite their best efforts to explain the situation, the tattoo artist remained firm, even demanding a late fee for an appointment they were early for. In the end, they chose to walk away, losing their non-refundable deposits but refusing to pay an unjust late fee. The day ended in tears, a ruined birthday surprise, and a long drive home. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this unfortunate turn of events…
