I had lots of time over the weekend to think how I was going to approach "those" employees at the front desk of the Post Office. I decided to make a joke out of the whole thing, with a comment like "Are you guys out to get me?"
So off I went to the Post Office for the FOURTH time, on Monday morning. Lo and behold! Who do I see in the parking lot, but the same affable gentleman who opened my box and gave me my second set of keys last Thursday.
I yell out to him. He tells me to talk to the employee at the front desk and he will be right in. So of course, this is déjà vu all over again. Miss Competent ( Can you detect a note of sarcasm there?) arranges for Mr. Affable to meet me once AGAIN, at my Super Box, in an hour.
When we meet up, he tries my keys. Well, they don't work any better for him than they did for me. Did he think I didn't know how to use them? So he opens my box with his master key. For those of you who made a prediction that my locks had been changed AGAIN, in those twenty four hours, you were right! There lay two NEW keys ONCE AGAIN!
We go through the same routine, double checking that my third set of keys actually work for me. I make a remark to the effect that OBVIOUSLY, no one had told the "lock changer person" Thursday, that the lock didn't need to be changed. So they went and changed the lock Friday. His parting comment to me? "Well, that may be so, but I don't know WHO changed the lock, since I am the one who does it!"
So I have come to the conclusion that some EVIL, EVIL Elf has been out to get me since I came back from My Camino. He has thrown every possible roadblock at me. Well, Christmas is coming and maybe he is going to take a rest? From making my life miserable anyway. I didn't think I had been that naughty.
On a final note for 2015, I wish you all a Joyous Christmas and a Peaceful and Prosperous New Year. Joyeux Noël et Bonne et Heureuse Année à tous. 2016 promises to hold more adventures. Of that, I am certain.
