Today I went into work at my usual time of 8am. When I got there my boss told me work was delayed until noon because of the snowstorm. So I took this time off to go down to one of the post offices in my town to get my passport renewed for my trip to Europe this summer. I had to make out two checks, one to the U.S. Post Master and one to the U.S. State Department. The mailwoman said I wouldn't get a receipt for the State Department check and it would come back as a canceled check. Not understanding why it would come back that way I asked her why. This is what she said to me, "Because the State Department is separate from the Government". Now for one, this didn't answer my question and secondly, since when is the State Department not part of the U.S. government? Instead of correcting her I decided to just leave, because I didn't feel like dealing with stupidity this early in the morning.
