The answer is "This is unacceptable. I had my whole day planned out."

People with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) has a tendency to make all aspect of their life in order. This makes them frequently have a specific restricted schedule that might be detailed up to minutes. An unexpected event can change this schedule and makes them upset because they have to modify their plan all over again.
