I didn't make Mary J Blige sick

About two weeks ago, I was suppose to work the Mary J. Blige concert. Unfortunately, due to an illness, the concert was rescheduled to Wednesday, October 8.

I stupidly volunteered to go into work and take phone calls and work the box office window for those fans, who didn't get the message. WRONG WRONG WRONG IDEA!!!
Every person who came to my window, decided to cuss me out because the concert was rescheduled. I am sorry that you spent all day in the salon getting your hair done. I apologize for you spending hours in the mall trying to find that perfect outfit. I understand that this inconvience means that you will have to come back and you planned your whole weekend around this one concert.

But people..... this WAS NOT MY FAULT!!!

I didn't get Mary J. sick. I am not in charge of her schedule and I don't know why she chose a week night to do the concert. Also, I didn't price the tickets. I know you spent $104 on each ticket for the best seats available, but I didn't make you buy the tickets. And no, I can not give you a refund for those tickets you won off the radio. I also can not compensate you for the gas used to travel from Virginia, or the hotel/food that you paid to spend the weekend in Charlotte.
As much as I would like to be a miracle worker, alas I am not.

So please, I do not mind listening to your frustrations, but there is really nothing that I can do. As I did not make Mary J Blige sick.

The only thing that saved me from wanting to shove a pair of scissors in my eye, was Ashley and James making me laugh the whole time! Without them, I might have gone off on somebody myself. Thanks guys!

P.S Did you know that a "king's hat" is called a crown? But that's another story.....
