Great job. "I hate children and poor people." Brilliant! "...the market is flooded with ALA dishwashers..." "...You will have to wait for someone to die." I am an academic librarian and IT'S ALL TRUE!

"Have you ever operated a Soviet bread line?"

I've been an academic librarian for 11 years. While there's some truth in this of course it's grossly exaggerated. I've never been unemployed in the field, and while the job market is certainly dismal at the moment that's true in most fields. You don't get rich but I knew that going in and I certainly make more than I did as a waiter and have better working conditions. ALL jobs have BS you have to put up with. If you're interested in being a librarian don't let this scare you away.

I worked as a graduate assistant in an academic library! It was actually a very ideal job. And I was exactly like the girl being interviewed. Except I'm male. And not animated.
I now work in a factory.
I LOVE THIS!!!!! Great Job!

This is hilarious! (As a Quaker and academic librarian myself I find it particularly amusing)

@rascalwhale Oh I'm so glad. I had a Quaker education . . . and I'm an academic librarian too. (Though, when I made this, I was "just a clerk" . . . )
:D
