Jean Chrétien wants a postage stamp issed with his picture on it.
So, he instructs his people, stressing that it should be of the highest International quality. The stamps are created, printed and
released.
Jean Chrétien is very pleased. But within a few days of release of the stamp, he is hearing complaints that the stamp is not sticking, and he becomes infuriated. He calls the people responsible and orders them
to investigate the matter.
They check the matter out at several post offices, and they report their findings to Chrétien.
The report states, "There is nothing wrong with the quality of the stamp. The problem is people are spitting on the wrong side."
