    Thick Accents, Thicker Heads

    (A teenage girl enters the library.(

    Me: “Hi, do you need help?”

    Customer: “Oh, yeah, I’m looking for a book.”

    Me: “Okay, are you a member of this library or any other Wellington library?”

    Customer: “Oh, no, I’m here with my Mother for the US summer cause I live with Dad in Florida.”

    Me: “Okay, we can sign you up to the library for free and issue you a card, the card will cost two dollars.”

    Customer: “Okay.”

    Me: “So, what book were you looking for?”

    Customer: “Twilight. Have you heard of it? Most people in America have read it, but I’m not sure if it’s here.”

    Me: “Oh, yeah, it was quite big for a while. My sister loved it.”

    Customer: “Yeah, it’s my second favorite book ever, after Eclipse.”

    Me: “Oh, did you leave your copy in America?”

    Customer: “No, I just wanted a copy from here because everyone here has really funny accents  and I wanted to know how that would change the story.”
