When I have a ritual day planned out and it gets cancelled for some reason.
If I have a full day with no responsibilities I'd do gym, eat at fast food place, get some coffee, go home, shower, watch anime where I walk/run between each activity.
If by any reason these plans get cancelled or derailed by something I forgot I promised to do or just urgent need I'll be very upset the rest of the day even though it'd be at most 10-15% reduction in a whatever or I'd have to drive/take bus between activities.
Another thing that really grinds my gears is when there's a scheduled time, clear path towards being on time and things get added last minute. Think of having a flight the day after, bag is packed, sleep is scheduled for good rest but for some reason some task gets added right before the 1h wind down before bed that adds 1.5h of delay to sleeping. Or just grabbing coffee/food before passing passport control etc.
