I feel bad

Had a patron ask me if I could let him make a long distance call to call the state cosmetology board about transferring his license from another state. It took me by surprise so I sent him to our Info desk to see if they could help him. I haven't seen him again, so I hope they did, but I feel like a right c***, especially as it could be construed as a state government information question and that is supposedly my area of expertise. Maybe I should memorize my long distance code (yeah right). I probably would have let him use my free long distance on my cell phone if I had it out at the desk...

Update: He passed by again. I brought out my cell phone and he's making the call. Either I'm doing my good deed for the day or I'm going to have my phone stolen.

No stolen phone? Yay! You are a good deed do-er. And, I wouldn't feel too bad - the whole long distance call thing still throws me. And why doesn't the state board not have an 800 number? hmph.
