I Should've Known Better
I HATE getting ads.
Since Newspaper is considered a "class" at my school, part of my grade depends on how many ads I can get for the paper. Ignoring the fact that I've been working my little butt off on articles and design(our design editor is a slacker), I still had to go out and get ads.
Last week I went to this dry cleaners off-base, and managed to get someone to purchase an ad. I scheduled Monday to pick up the money, but on that day the person said that they forgot the money, and asked if I could come by on Tuesday instead.
Being the stupidly nice (is that possible?) person that I am, I agree to it.
Today I returned to the dry cleaners, but the person LEFT and I had to speak with the manager. Apparently the person never told her that they purchased an ad, and couldn't get a chance to speak with them before they left.
So now, with three days before the marking quarter ends, I have no ads and my grade is going to tank. Yay.
I think I trust strangers too much for my own good. >.
