I conquered!!

Oh yes, I conquered a government worker today! (can you hear my pride, which I know is evil but still!) I had to go to the local social security office to apply for a new card for my daughter and felt like David facing Goliath. My question is this- why are most (not all, because my Dad also works for the government and I guess my Mom kind of does, too) government workers always so angry? I really don't understand. I realized they sit behind the same desk day in and day out and perform the same tasks daily, but don't alot people? At least they are able to talk to 100s of different people a week. The lady I was blessed to be assisted by today would not smile. She was kind of intimidating, to tell you the truth. I tried to make small talk, didn't work. I thought she was going to send me on my way without allowing me to apply for the new card but she didn't.

I wished her a blessed day and skipped right out of there (and I do truly love to skip- just ask my family)!! Victory! I just hope her day is better tomorrow!

In Him,

E
