Laundry Trouble

This post would work better with real pictures but the Semi-Retired Drama Queen was too furious to take any pictures this afternoon.

It all happened a few days ago when the Semi-Retired Drama Queen realised that she actually had two and half weeks load of laundry to do. She then decided to send her clothes to the laundromat near her apartment.

She had underestimated the weight of her soiled clothes and paid RM20 for the service. She had initially expected it to be less than RM10.

When the Semi-Retired Drama Queen returned home after collecting the washed clothes this afternoon, she discovered that the 5 kg bundle of clothes that she had lugged all the way home were not hers! The bag contained male briefs, male boxer shorts, men's t-shirts etc.

Annoyed, the Semi-Retired Drama Queen repacked the clothes into the bag and returned to the laundromat. At the laundromat, the worker refused to accept the bag and insisted that there was no mixed up. The following is an excerpt from her conversation with the worker at the laundromat (Translated from Malay):

SRDQ     : Hi, there is a mistake. The bag of clothes I took home just then were not mine.

Worker  : Shouldn't be. There is NO MIX-UP. We sort out all the clothes according to names. Isn't your name XXX

SRDQ    :  Yes, my name is XXX. But those clothes in that bag aren't mine.

Worker   : That is not possible ma'am. If your name is XXX, the clothes in that bag should be yours

SRDQ     : Look, obviously there is a mistake here. I am XXX but I am pretty sure I don't wear men's briefs and boxer shorts. I want my clothes back!!

Worker    : Ma'am, I am very sorry but we can't find your clothes. If what you say is true, someone must have taken your clothes. We will contact you once they return the clothes to us
