Wife said she'd like some help around the house so I bought her one of those robot sweeper things.

I've had it scheduled to clean while we're at work, but today I'm running it while I'm at home so I can see what it does. The thing keeps cleaning the same 3 rooms over and over again - and it's going over the same places 6 or 7 times before it even hits a single area once. It's been running for about 30 minutes now and it still hasn't found the hallway leading back to the bedrooms.

It got stuck under the kitchen table and kept banging into chair legs. I'm just watching it thinking "You got yourself in there, you can get yourself out" - took the thing forever to get out of that mess. Then it turned around and went right back under the table and got stuck again. Fucking idiot.

If it was an employee, I'd fire its ass. From this day forward its name is Corky.
