Jill finally arrives at the office (90 minutes late). Her boss, a silent figure with stern glasses, just points at the clock. No words are needed. She sits at her desk. She opens her laptop. The battery is dead. She searches for a charger. There is a new IT policy: you must check out chargers with a badge. Her badge is in her other jacket. The jacket with the coffee stain.
She runs to the bus stop just in time to see the bus pull away. She checks her watch. The next bus is in 40 minutes. She decides to walk. Splash. A taxi drives through a puddle, drenching her replacement trousers.

It doesn't need explosions or plot twists; it relies on a universal human experience: the domino effect of misfortune.
