Post office cashier: Next
Woman: Hello, am I
too late to get the limited commemorative Elvis stamps?
Post office cashier: Oh mam, I am so sorry, I don’t’ know
how to tell you this, but we sold the last one just moments ago.
Woman: No, you are mistake. Go look again. You probably have
another case of them.
Post office cashier: Seriously, I double checked already.
Woman: You are a
professional, check again. I just don’t believe that you could have really sold
the last one.
Post office cashier: Mam, this is my Job. I know exactly how
many Elvis stamps we had. I know we just sold the last one.
Woman: Let me back
there and let me try to look for it myself.
Post office cashier: You are not a US post office official,
mam, you are not qualified to search.
Woman throws her arms in the air: You made a mistake, Sir. You should plan
better and have enough stamps to meet demand. I hold you responsible for this calamity.
Post office cashier: Mam, they were limited run Elvis
stamps. By nature we printed less than demand would require. This is just what
happens to all limited run stamps. I’ve seen it happen many times. But I
understand your grief and I have a hotline that you can call to get help.
Woman: Well what if I
could find someone who just walked out with the last one? Maybe I can buy it
off the person. What did they look like?
Post office cashier: You can’t do that mam. Its rude.
Woman puts her hands over her face and cries: Oh the
humanity!
Post office cashier: Mam, please take this hotline number.
Call them. They are there to help you through this very common occurrence. They
will help you.
Woman: I guess I just have to accept this as my fate. Thank
you sir, you have been so patient with me.
