The Contrarian Librarian: Looking For Work
(My mom works at the library, working in the front where most applicants drop off their resumés for open positions.)
Mom: “Welcome to [Library]. How may I help you?”
Customer: “I’d like to apply for the open position.”
(She hands my mum her resumé, which is put with the others.)
Mom: “Anything else I can help you with today?”
Customer: “Can you help me find this book, as well?”
(She hands my mum a paper with the name of a series on it.)
Mom: “Oh, sure.” *looks it up* “This is a really good series; I think you’ll enjoy it.”
Customer: “Oh, this isn’t for me; this is for my friend. I hate reading.”
