Library Life | Naked Man In The Restroom...

Yesterday as I was walking into work I noticed that our Director and Newsletter Guy were having an issue with our resident homeless/smelly dude (We shall call him HSD for short and I would like to note that I'm not unsympathetic toward homeless people, it's just that this dude in particular is a real piece of shit that harasses and is rude to the staff even though people have tried to help him in the past). And because I had a bunch of stuff with me for a program Nicole and I were having, I just decided to ignore the situation and just go straight into my department.

So later on in the day I walk into the Newsletter Guy's office and find him sitting having a conversation with one of our custodians. I start asking about what had happened with HSD earlier and the custodian proceeds to tell me that he had see HSD walk into the library with a brown paper bag that had a can in it. It was pretty obvious that it was a beer and that he was going to the restroom to drink it, so our custodian went into the restroom to confirm his suspicion. He walks in and finds HSD standing totally naked in one of the stalls, the unopen beer sitting on one of the sinks. HSD slams the stall door when he sees him walk in, our custodian just grabs that beer and goes straight to the Director.

The Director comes down (Minus the custodian because he was done with the situation) as HSD is walking out of the restroom dressed but with no shoes on. So he starts having a conversation with him, which is when Newsletter Guy came out of his office to backup the Director. HSD proceeds to argue with the two men. They weren't having it and tell him that he needs to leave the library, etc. This is when I apparently walked pass to go to my Department.

Fast forward a few hours... Our custodian comes into the room that Nicole and I are setting up for our program to tell us that he had just went to speak to the Director and while they were talking the Director says "Did you not notice that he didn't have shoes on?" The custodian said "Um, no I didn't notice that he didn't have shoes on because HE WAS TOTALLY NAKED IN THE RESTROOM!"

So yeah, that was yesterday at the library.

Library Life | Shit Show...

Remember the other day that I said I'd start writing about work again, well do I have a little story for you that literally just happened... Out of nowhere a bunch of patrons just ran into the department with disgusted looks on their faces and my Department Head and I just kind of looked at them very quizzically. Eventually one of them came over to us and informed us that someone had defecated in the hallway. One by one other patrons confirmed what the original patron had stated and my Department Head when to the hallway to check. Not two seconds later the door to our department was shut and she was on the phone trying to find our custodian.

Unfortunately throughout this I realized that I had to use the restroom myself (Why didn't I just pee earlier when I got back from the meeting I was at?!!) so I had to brave the hallway to make my way to the staff restroom. And oh my God, it was literally a shit show. There were piles of feces on the floor and smeared on the tiles. It was one of the most disgusting things I've seen at work in the longest time.

Being me, I took pictures but I will spare you all the photos because I basically took them to show our Director and random staff memebers. But yeah, there is my work story for you...

Library Life | An Apology To My Readers...

As you may or may not have noticed I haven't written about work in a while and it isn't because the library has be boring or anything, on the contrary a lot of interesting things have happened in the past few months. But as I'd mentioned in one of my last library updates I'd been wary of writing about work because of shadiness going on within the building.

Thankfully as of late a lot of that shadiness has subsided and I feel like I can go back to writing freely about my library life again. And even though I kept silence on the subject to basically cover my own ass (Which I hope the majority of you understand) I feel like I still need to apologize to you all because those stories are a big portion of what I wanted this blog to be about. I mean, I genuinely love all of the things I've shared with you (Like I really really do love makeup, bad movies, traveling and taking photos of dumb random things) and they are all part of my adventures outside of the library but I still can't stop feeling like I've been only giving you half of me. So for this I apologize.

I hope you all accept my apology and enjoy my ramblings once more because I absolutely love sharing the wackiness that is my life with all of you. Thank you for dealing with me and I cannot wait to once again go back to my roots of writing all about my adventures inside and outside of the library.
