Sometimes I do something dumb like order a watch strap 2 mm too big.
And then I do something not-so-smart like try to make it work anyway, by switching the spring attachment and trimming the strap width.
Couple it with accidentally putting a strap in backwards, and then creating a new hole because otherwise, it would fit too large.
The other alternative would be to return it and purchase one in the right size. But that would be way too simple. And take too long.
The saddest part of this story is that I've been doing things like this since I can remember. Fiddling with my hands to do a not-too-great job of fixing something. Cutting things too short, using a stapler, glue everywhere...I can remember trying these kinds of shortcuts as early as third grade.
I am an impatient person. But maybe no one will pay close attention to my watch strap.
