How To Tell If The Universe Is Out To Get You

A dispatcher friend of mine during my days with Heartland sent flowers to his girlfriend. It was not a special occasion....it was not nearing Valentine's Day...it was not to celebrate the first time they met or her birthday. He sent flowers for no other reason than to show he loved her and was thinking about her. Now here is where the universe steps in. I don't know if it was the delivery guy or the delivery guy's boss, but the delivery guy takes off to my dispatcher friend's home address, when he can't find the girlfriend at her home. The delivery guy rings the doorbell at my dispatcher friend's house and is soon greeted by my dispatcher friend's wife and hands her the girlfriend's flowers. Now my dispatcher friend earns a meager dispatcher's salary. His wife on the other hand (the lady with the new bouquet of flowers and a curious look on her face as she reads the attached card) is a full fledged doctor lady making big doctor lady money. From all accounts she provides (or provided as the case may be) a handsome income stream to go with his paltry dispatcher pay. I'm not sure if my dispatcher friend was able to explain his way out of this one. Remember, the Universe is always out there and it's always gunning for you....but in the defense of the Universe, this was way to easy and no one can blame the Universe for stepping in on this one.
