7.) A guy left his apartment with his roommate's girlfriend's shoes on, and had to go back to change.
6.) A guy tried to cut his own hair before work, but his clippers broke halfway, so he needed to wait for a barber shop to open to get his haircut fixed.

4.) One woman drove to her old job by mistake.
