We've got an outage on at work at the moment (1000 extra people on site) and someone in charge of the two canteens has decided that it's too difficult to do fried eggs. 😯
After years of frothy eggs I discovered the pre-warming method and its a winner. You can be quite rough with dropping the eggs in and they still turn out good.
I tend to put them on the grill pan and let them drain briefly before putting them on the toast.

Eggs should not be stored on the refrigerator door, but in the main body of the refrigerator to ensure that they keep a consistent and cool temperature.
But that's foreign advice.
In the US, it's illegal to sell unwashed eggs. In the UK, it's illegal to sell washed ones. Also, in the UK hens are required to have salmonella vaccinations, not so in the US. (I'm not sure about Canada where that article was printed).
So, due to the salmonella risk and because the washing process affects the shells (it can encourage salmonella to transfer from outside to inside), US eggs need to be stored in the fridge. UK eggs do not have these problems and so should be stored in their box in the cupboard to avoid the chance of them absorbing odours from other strong flavours in the fridge like cheese.
HTH.
Good advice Cougar.
Still, it's all irrelevant as OP and most of the deviants on this thread seem to think that this, [i]abomination [/i] of boiling eggs incorrectly, is somehow tolerable in a civilised society.
You'll all freaks and when I am in charge anyone caught doing this to an egg [or for that matter opening the fat end if they do somehow manage to boil one the right way] will be first against the wall to be egged.
