So I had to go down to the customs office to pick up my shirts because I miscalculated and was over the maximum amount you're allowed without having to pay customs.

The agent had me open my package and looked at the shirts and the invoice (I knew I was over so had resigned myself to paying 30% of the value) and when I explained that one of them was my design (I finally got to see Imposter in the Bird Hotel in person and was kind of excited) and showed him my name printed inside the shirt, he said, "Well, it doesn't seem right that you should have to pay customs on your own design". I smiled and agreed.

"Tell you what," he said, "I'm having a good day." And then he proceeded to let me leave, customs-free, with my shirts.

So, I'm having a good day too! Yay for awesome customs agents!

I swear, whenever I have to go to some kind of official office-y type thing here in Berlin, they're always so friendly! It totally throws me.

Yeah, I always thought the Germans would be even colder and more bureaucratic in official positions, but I guess I've been lucky.



(Ja, Berlin. Been here for 6 years, made easier by the fact that I have two passports! Which is why I'm always around when most of you wake up and pretty much always gone when the blogs get rolling... It's very Ladyhawke)
