6. Do you need any help preparing for your job?
I don't, have you deal with some ice head trying to get information out of him or something.

5. count yourself lucky

10. There was a librarian thread a while back and
...there was a shout out or two. A friend of mine is a librarian and loves it, but she's not a DUer.

14. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edited on Wed Jun-08-05 02:21 PM by MissHoneychurch
it is the perfect job for me. I enjoy helping customers finding answers, I enjoy working with the books (I partly work with books from the 16th to the 19th century).

15. I worked at a Law Library....Best of Both your worlds...
I wasn't exactly a "Librarian" per se, I just worked behind the counter answering questions for a little extra spending cash during school.

I was the loudest librarian on record. Even my "shhhhhh" was quite noisey.
