Had a customer the other day who went to lick her finger to get a ring off, only to end up spitting in her mask. Lucky for me, my mask hid my smirk. I was kind enough to give her a fresh mask, though I refused to take the spittle-coated one she tried to hand me. I just held up the waste basket for her. — James Doggett, Doggett Jewelry, Kingston, NH
