"They Didn't Send Me a Bill (But I Sure Got The ShutOff Notice!)"

Woman comes in today, slaps down a $990 gas bill on the counter. I picked it up and did a double take and all I could say was, ... WOW.... She said, "Yeah, right, ya know? It's all the gas company's fault, too! They didn't send me a bill for three months!"
Wondering to myself, how do you 'forget' to pay a gas bill, since it comes every month like your period. Ok scrap that, she might be pregnant. It comes due every month just like your, oh, RENT!!! Electric and water bills! Your overextended Capital One bill! But she went on and on about how she should not be expected to pay this high of a bill if they didn't send the bill to her. She leaned over and said, "I called the company and you know what they said? 'Ma'am we are not responsible for the postal service!', as if that excuses them for not sending me a bill and letting them know what I owe!" (Inner voice is saying, "ASK HER how come she didn't call them when she didn't get bills! ASK HER!!!") I'm just smiling and trying to take the bill. She has really long fake nails, a pack of cigs hanging out of her purse. She drove up in a huge truck that is about 20 ft. off the ground thanks to the tires that are about as tall as I am. Ok so maybe she borrowed that truck from her boyfriend so we'll give her a break. She has about $50 worth of cheap makeup on, earrings in many holes in her ears, covered in tattoos. Lots of rings, some fingers have two.
Then she says, "I don't know how they expect me to come up with this all at once when I'm f*ckin' unemployed!" Wow, just...wow. So much potential and no one sees it. Wow. (Nevermind that the bill is three months' worth of bills she did not pay, and if she'd just set the money aside as if she had paid it OR, gasp, called them!, she would not have had to come up with so much at once. But I'm sorry, this is land of the persecuted here.) On and on about how utility companies are gouging the poor people and how unfair it is.
Just that truck alone cost more than most people's yearly incomes...must bite tongue. Some people have different priorities.
