Argghhh...

I just got the dreaded, "Do you work here?" question again. I'm sitting here behind a rather prominant desk, unlike any others in this rather small library, working away at the computer and she asks if I work here... No, I've commandeered this vessel and I'm taking it to Mexico! No, I've got a part as a librarian on TV and I'm researching the role! No, it's my day off but I can't stay away from this place! AAAAGGGGHHHH!!!

I've got to get me one of those buttons.

See that is why you always have to wear your id.

Matt said...

Yes. I work here. I try not to but they make me. *laugh*

And we don't have IDs. We don't work at McDonald's, you know! *laugh*

And besides, it's happened to people even while wearing an ID, myself included!

Jeez! You would think that would not happen at a university library!

I tapped on this uniformed guy's shoulder the other day thinking he worked at the bookstore I was in. Turned out he was a bodyguard covering one part of the store or something. Lol.

Some of the buttons might make you seem like you live alone, not counting your three cats, but this one is cool. :)

dan: People are dumb even at university... *laugh*

jenn: I swear, I think they just say it as a greeting or something...

andie: So did he arrest you or something? *laugh* See, but he still worked there. Just not in the capacity you wanted him for. And that button you pointed out IS the coolest one. I've got to get me one of those.

No, but he gave me this look, like he was above all because that little telephone cord hanging behind his ear gave him great power. That, or maybe he just didn't like to be touched. Hahah.

Really cool, yeah. The kind that makes you also want to be a librarian just so you can wear it, lol. :)
