A Smile on My Face

I HATE JUNK MAIL!!! So when I get a new piece of junk mail offering a subscription, a chance to win something, or whatever else, I usually contact the company to find out:
a) Where they got my personal info (subsequently, I contact that company also)
b) How to get my name off their mailing list
Also, I don’t leave a valid address when registering on websites, and when I do subscribe to something, I always contact the company to tell them of my wishes relating to customer privacy.
So, I’ve had this envelope from a magazine company sitting on my desk for a couple of weeks now. Thinking it was junk mail, I planned on contacting them to do the above, but, surprise! it wasn’t junk mail at all! My aunt bought a gift-subscription for me. Wow! How nice to open mail that isn’t a bill or junk. So, of course I still contacted them to ensure my privacy; nevertheless, it put a smile on this girl’s face.
