Questions At The Library



I work in a library.
I get asked a lot of questions.
Some of them are pretty.. ridiculous.

Actual conversation:

Girl: How do I get to the "3rd floor main collection"?
Me: Just head up the stairs behind you.
Girl: Oh! That's what I did last time.

    you should have told her the 3rd floor collection is on the 4th floor, but that you are actually on the 2nd floor, so she has to walk up two flights to get there. That way you are giving her the right directions, but within a different framework.

    Life is always good, even when I think it's sucking – still good.
    How've you been?

    Were you still working there when we met, or were you already done with your library sentence?

    yep I think so. I was working there in the second half of 2004, was that when modblog was around?

    Yeah, I jumped on there just before getting my gmail account, so May/June 2004.

    Jeez. I've known you for over 4 years.
