How to Leaflet & Alienate People

I am greeted outside of the immigration office by hoards of people giving out paraphernalia advertising their respective companies or cults. A woman is spreading the joy of Christianity, a man hands me a document offering, Legal Support for Aliens, and anotherman is holding a sign demanding China stop the act of organ harvesting. Its all very exciting. Inside the Immigration Center, I head over to the Advice and Information Counter. I take a ticket, 147, and then take a seat. The woman at the counter is talking to a young French couple in broken English. Every few seconds she lets out a yawn or scratches her head, illustrating her own apparent boredom. Eventually, the French couple leave. The woman at the counter presses a button and the bright red display shows the number 145. She waits less than three seconds before pressing the button again, 146. She waits less than three seconds before pressing the button again, 147, my number. She watches as I approach the counter, her finger hovering over the button to call the next number, her eyes filled with a resent that I might sit down before her within my three-second window. I take a seat just as she sighs. I understand that maybe I am the one hundred and forty-seventh person she has seen today, not counting the people she frantically skipped, but this is her job. To counter her obvious state of disregard, I greet her in an overly cheerful manner, smiling as I sit.
