I am waiting for the library to call me back. I am pretty sure I got the job! I did really well.
I was explaining my invention of a stain-proof type of paper for people who like both reading and coffee and they agreed it was a novel idea.
They were not completely convinced by my suggestion that we polish the books to reduce fiction when people take them. They were too shelf-ish to see the possibilities.
They asked me if I was willing to reshelve books.
I said "yeah book me as the chapter do that" but then I had a closer look at some of them and asked "what about these numbers Dewey use them or not?" I could tell they were impressed by this stage.
I knew I had won the job when they asked me about references. I was way ahead of them there. "Do you want them in APA or Harvard I asked. It was like I had read their minds.
They author be calling me about now.
