The Post Office
Returning from a working holiday, I was feeling very pleased with myself for hardly spending any of the Euros I'd taken out with me so I took them back to the Post Office. There were 3 people manning the tills, one assisting the people queuing and the other two fiddling with envelopes. After 20 minutes I arrived at the front of the queue, only to be told I should have gone straight to the Bureau De Change window five feet away.
"But there was no-one there" I protested.
"There should be - have a look now" said the only one working.
I popped my head round and saw the assistant in the BDC section, yapping away on the phone to her mate. After another 5 minutes, she finally comes over.
"Sorry about that" she says.
I'm sure you are.
Then they have the cheek to give me £20 quid less back than I originally changed, due to exchange rates.
You can imagine the scenes of machine gun smoke filled carnage playing through my mind as I left.
