a short story about hats:



(all confidential or sensitive information has been replaced with the word "hat")

All Hat Airlines Agent: how can i help you?
Me: I have about $600 that's not mine.
AHAA: yes?
Me: So Hat had a ticket from Hat to Hat that was purchased under the wrong name. When hat tried to change her ticket, the hat counter cancelled the old ticket, and issued a cash refund to hat. The hat counter then issued hat a new ticket without charging any money.
AHAA: that is impossible, we don't issue cash refunds like that.
Me: but i have the money!
AHAA: no... we have no data that the money was issued.
Me: but it's here...
AHAA: no.
Me: what the hat?
(and that's why, if i didn't work for the government, i'd be $300 dollars richer - at least there was that incentive check)

Maybe hat was hitting on hat? A little under-the-table-I-don't-normally-would-you-like-a-cup-of-coffee-$600?

so did you keep the $$?

I also have a hat story! All sensitive information replaced with kitten. From the Olympics:
Announcer 1: You can see the kitten contestant is wearing a hat there. Kitten, you used to wear a hat when you competed, were there any disadvantages there?
Announcer 2: Well Kitten, the thing about a hat is, and I believe the kitten team has picked up on this, is that the brim of the hat can, if it's raining, it can actually shield your face from the rain and keep it dry.
Announcer 1: That's a big advantage, kitten.
Announcer 2: Oh for sure.
