Spent 4 hours on a Samsung dryer that just needed a door switch

I got called out for a dryer that wouldn't start, and the customer swore it was the thermal fuse. I checked everything, even pulled the whole drum, before I finally tested the simple door switch and it was dead. Has anyone else wasted a huge chunk of time overthinking a basic part?

Ugh, that's the worst! Been there so many times. Makes you want to kick something, right?

I get what you mean about wanting to kick something, but honestly that feeling never lasts for me. I usually just feel tired and kind of numb after a bad day. Like last week my car broke down in the rain, and I just sat there waiting for the tow truck feeling empty. The big anger part doesn't really show up.

Paige brings up a good point though. That numb, empty feeling after a bad day is pretty common too, I've had my share of those moments where the anger just never shows up. So maybe the "wanting to kick something" part isn't automatic for everyone, it kinda depends on the person and the situation.
