Making the time go
Two weeks in a row now, I've been screwed because someone is leaving blank sheets on the bottom of the stack of guest logins. Everyone who isn't a member of our patron community needs these and I'm not authorised to generate them myself, so when the stack gets low, I have to find someone to do it--which is not always an easy thing on a Friday afternoon in summer, even when there isn't a professional conference going on. Honestly, some of the people who come in here are paranoid enough already without having to listen to a long-winded explanation of why you are DENYING them access to the Internet.
But that doesn't matter because I saw two chubby little kids wandering about and when I asked them if they needed help finding something, they told me their parents had sent them on a scavenger hunt. SO CUTE! And a brilliant idea, by the way. They weren't being in the least disruptive, I was just trying to be proactive in my duties. In any case, they were looking for "a building that has '1896-1913' carved into it" and thought this might be it. Really, little dudes? You think poured concrete was all the rage during the Gilded Age?
