Hey guys, gunna go to my local library today and get a card.
I go there afew times a week and hang out to read, I always say hello to the people working there but I have yet to get a card.
Any tips on how to go about doing this?
What book should I check out first to make a good impression?
On my reading list I have "A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man" by Joyce, but Im scared that will make me look like a pretentious tryhard
>What book should I check out first to make a good impression?
Now that's what I call autism.
Ask for a card, take out any book you want, nobody gives a fuck you autist

>implying i give a shit what a librarian making 20k a year thinks
>implying your MLS is relevant
>implying you aren't just a glorified cashier
>implying your job isn't being replaced by self-checkout machines
now shut up and scan my books

It requires a 4 year degree and a 2 year training program you uneducated plebeian
The assistants can be kids who are in school or whatever, but a Librarian requires 6 years of school total

Are you fucking autistic or something? You're really fucking asking us how you should loan your first fucking book from the library?
You're an imbecile.
Always leave a tip with the receptionist after checking out

The majority of the best writers in history were aristocratic and wealthy as fuck. It's a lot easier to focus on art and literature when you aren't busy wagekeking it up and worrying about going homeless :)
But no tell me more about your 6 years of library school and how that has contributed to your /literary lifestyle/
Also

Money value or literary value?

I don't know what it's like where you live but check outs are cheap so I always tip 100%. They treat me like gold when I walk in there

>caring about money
hohohohoho
>>7627343
t. every poorfag in denial who wished he was actually rich
>>7627348
Negative. Poor people care more about money because it actually matters to them where their next meal is coming from. The kids of rich people are the ones who don't care because they never had to learn the value of it. 2/10 bait.
>>7627359
Uhm I think he said the opposite of what you think he said, or else you're saying something different from what I think you're saying.
He's saying poor people actually care a lot about money but pretend/are in denial about it/shitpost about it on 4chan, which is what you're saying ("poor people care more about money because it actually matters to them") as well.
>>7627363
Then what he's saying is idiotic.
>>7627368
aren't we all idiots
>>7627370
Touché,
>>7627370
speak for yourself i'm brilliant
