The Bell.

You know the one. The one that sits on front desks at several businesses, post offices, and stores. It creates quite the dilemma. When to use the bell is the question. Even when there's noone around to help you it still begs the question. *inner thoughts* Maybe if I wait around for a minute someone will show up. Hmm where is everybody? Maybe it's lunch time. Sheww... *DING* *end inner thoughts.* It just seems so rude to ring the bell. But to do it while someone is directly in front of you is rude. I should start doing that, maybe raise a few blood pressures. It'd be a hoot!
