I love librarians do Gaga.
Totally made me smile, too.
Neither of you are librarians, are you? :)
Seriously, made me want to cry. I hate when librarians try to be “cool for the kids”. Just do your jobs and try not to make your colleagues hate you, because the students? They will NEVER think you’re cool no matter what you do…
No, we’re not librarians… But honestly, I didn’t see it as an attempt to be cool for the kids, I just thought that they had fun together… But I guess, being a librarian yourself you have more insight. :)
I also thought they had fun together without even thinking about the kids.
… I always thought this “never cool no matter what you do” only applied to teachers. ^^
Librarians are pretty much teachers with slightly more social phobia and know-it-all’s disease.
(A great number of the “more mature” students in my Library Studies university course were in fact teachers who’d realised they hated kids but liked the idea of sitting around being smart…)
^^
I think librarians are cool guys. Like the librarian in Buffy.
People of my own cloth, then. ;)
… true. You’d make a cool librarian.
Why, thank you. :)
L is right – you would. In fact, sometimes I have to stop mid library-in-joke and think “wait, kalafudra’s not actually a librarian…”
Feel free to make those jokes anyway – maybe by the time I’ll have my career change into the library, I will be at least ready, when it comes to the jokes. :)
