The Man At The Post Office

Dear D,
My Thai arch nemesis works at the post office. He made me so furious today that I've decided to boycott his office, even though the next closest post office is another 10 minutes further by motorbike. This is why:
1. He points at random things and asks me to name them in Thai when all I'm trying to do is send a letter.
2. He mimics me and laughs when I stumblingly try to reply.
3. OH, did I mention he speaks perfect English?
4. EVERY time I try to send a package to the US he tries to convince me I have to pay 800+ baht at the minimum. I fell for this once, but TODAY I put my foot down, took my package one town over and the charming, smiling lady sent it for 300 baht. ?!?!??!

Wishing I could give that jerk a piece of my mind without making my school lose face,
L
