i swear

County salaries are public record; therefore, I know a certain admin in my building makes $93,000 a year.

 

She just asked me to help her find an address that she could NOT find in the phone book.  Literally, the task was giving her a migraine.  So, putting my Master's degree to hard work, I went to Google, typed a few more keystrokes and her answer magically appeared. 

 

"Oh, I could have done that."

 

Yeah, but you didn't.  And, you're welcome.

 

Also, you'd think I'd encounter more full-blown lunatics in the library but I really don't.  I work in a bubble.  But I met one today.  Do me a favor and picture a large-chested woman with no bra and a low cut tank top and glossy eyes that can only see one thing: the mothership.  Now, here's what went down:

 

Zoolulu Quartz Rainbow:  "I need to know where the bibles are."

 

Me:  "We have them in two places; would you like to check one out or do you want to look at one while you're here?"

 

ZQR:  "I asked you a simple question and I am not going to repeat myself."

 

Me:  "I'll gladly show you where they are because I'm going to pull out the heaviest one and smash it over your head."

 

I took her to the bibles and then showed her that they were on two shelves. 

 

ZQR:  "EXCUSE ME. WHERE ARE THE BIBLES. I ASKED YOU A SIMPLE QUESTION AND YOU JUST TOOK ME ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE."

 

Me:  "..." and again, "The bibles are right here."  I showed her. 

 

ZQR:  "Yes, I see."

 

Let's see.  Do I love my job today?  Do you love my job today?
