So frustrating!
So Calvin sent me two dvds (no cases) in an envelope. He only put 37 cents on it so by the time it got to Berkeley, I got a notice from the post office saying I need to pay 23 cents. I barely have enough time this week to walk to post office. So STRESSED OUT with teaching, homework and a talk this week. Anyways, fine, I had some time today, so I walked to the post office. NOT a short stroll, mind you. It's really far. But I get there, wait in a line where this woman at the window is taking forever!! Like seriously forever... anyways, finally it's my turn and I give that post office employee a quarter, the slip and my ID.
She says, "I can't take that quarter, I need exactly 23 cents."
I go, "It's okay, I don't need the change."
She says, "No, I can't take the quarter. You'll have to get change at the other window [pointing to the group of windows where there's a huuuge crowd of people]"
I was like, "What?"
She says, "You need exactly 23 cents. I'm not a clerk. I can't take that quarter."
I go, "Fine!!"
I go wait in the even looooonger regular lines. I hand that woman a quarter and say, "I need change." Luckily this employee was smart enough to not send me back to the original window I was at. She got my letter and gave me back my precious two cents. Geez! What a hassle!
Darnit Calvie! Put another darn stamp on letters!! The stupid USPS already ruined a nice box of persimmons last year b/c I was too busy to walk to the post office.
