Why is it that?

People who have no money for the obviously homeless guy on the corner suddenly find change for their eggnog latte as soon as he's out of sight?

And why is it that 'urgent blackberry messages that cannot be ignored' only ever seem to come in when there's something that they don't want to look at / deal with?

And why is it that at Xmas stores throw untrained seasonal workers onto the shop floor and push their frayed patience with endless loops of the same three Xmas songs and an ever changing PoS system (what happened to tills?)

And why is it that when faced with an exhorbitant price tag on an item I'll walk away but when told the price by a salesperson I have to go through the charade of consideration?

And why is it sometimes not a charade?

This could go on (and on) but I run the risk of sounding like the offspring of Tracy Chapman and Savage Garden and that's a thought I'd gladly pay to avoid
