Library Snobs
I really really like books.
I really enjoy helping people get books (i.e.- suggesting books & checking them out...).
I really do not enjoy being around people who are totally full of themselves. There are a lot of 'snobs' in the library system where I work. This is a downside to my job.
The upside-
1. The business I work for has made the front page of the local newspaper which was sort of cool. People I know were like "hey whats going on" and I was like "no clue, not paid to read the paper".
2. I can count on staff at my branch NOT knowing procedure. This is cool to me because if I know whats going on and they don't it makes me feel like at least I was paying attention during instruction. Mostly though its because I've been here longer than anyone else.
3. The excitement when people discover a new author or series.
4. I work right by a Starbucks.
5. I can get home from work in 13 minutes flat speeding in clear weather.
