So, I was talking to the librarian in London today, asking if one of my suspects had been there when the murder happened. I'm studying to be a librarian, and the first thing that jumped to mind was, "Is she allowed to tell me that? That might go against the ethics of guarding a patron's privacy!" My next thought was, "I've been studying waaaaaaay to much!" I was amused though...

Wow....when I asked you a few days ago. You just said: "Yes."

lol.

Oh wait, I think i asked "I didn't know you had to get to get a PHD to be a librarian." At least I knew you had to study. :)

Lol, well I try not to rant too often. I figure people who aren't actually in the program *probably* don't care. Although at the same time I sometimes get the urge to say, "Um, there's a lot more to it than shelving and checking out books." And good job for knowing you have to study. :)

Oh, my little rant wasn't directed at anyone in particular Calico! It was just a "yes you have to go to grad school to be a librarian rant". I know you were kidding. :)

Thanks for the luck! :) So far I've only been through one semester, but I enjoyed it. Although things got really busy at the end.

Well, the library is my favorite place. It always quiet. Well, it's not easy to find a quiet place in a city. Go for it bitter suite.

Two of my dream jobs: working in a bookshop or being a librarian : o )

Don't say that in an interview.

I used to manage bookstores, now I manage in a library.

I always get a shiver when someone says that in an interview "I always dreamed of working in a library, I love to read".

No, you are here to work, not to read.
