Mishaps, Misadventures and Serendipities

When I was in the US I met a lovely lady who fell in love with my nutrition. After I cam home I shipped her some bars in what I thought was pretty good wrapping but only half of them made it. I suspect the box was raided by a hungry postal worker. Anyway, she tells a funy story I thought worth sharing with you…

Tom,

I took pictures with my I-phone and tried numerous times to email to you but it seems they didn’t go. So either they didn’t and you have received no photos of the box, or they have and you will have multiple copies of the same 3 photos. (?)

BUT I did go to the post office and it was really fun, I know that sounds unbelievable but it was. I took the box and it’s contents (and it a place I have frequented a lot during the last few years so the ladies who work there are familiar to me and me to them). I put the box on the counter with it’s partial contents and started to tell the story, and she said I need to find something out 1st: was the postage from some where other than the US? if so only that place can help and then only if insured. I said yes it was from Australia but I needed to know how to prevent this problem in the future because despite the fact that I paid $58 for postage, and despite the fact the bars are very expensive, and despite the fact that this problem occurred I LOVE these bars because they don’t make you gain weight, they give you energy, they help you think clearly and they taste really good, not sweet and they have no bad stuff in them. At this point, not one not 2 but all four postal ladies were not helping the customers, they wanted to know where to get these bars because they needed them and insisted I give them contact info. Well I hadn’t taken your card to the post office, but the lady who was helping me said I will google heathelicious and did right there at which point the other ladies left their stations and came over to see. I said these are expensive and the postage is expensive but they are worth every penny and I am not going without them. So despite the added expense, you couldn’t have paid for that kind of advertising, as all the postal customers heard as well, as they had no choice but to wait. Isn’t that fun?
