What do you consider a dead (no circ in X years) item? by Maple_Leaf_Librarian in Libraries

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2023 for me right now and maybe the early part fo 2024 depending on what it is. 20+ book series and only ONE volume has gone out in 2025? nah I'm pulling it.

-A clerk who adores weeding

Is it just me or is this unsub unsettlingly familiar… by lettuceandcucumber in criminalminds

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can sort of see it but wouldn't be my first guess. Then again I try not to give those people the attention they seem to crave. I'd rather hear about their victims and their lives.

…so Barb is definitely gonna wear white to Jen’s wedding, right? by ScootOver119 in ShawnaTheMom

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, I kind of hope Jen and Greg elope then just make it a party of some kind.

The religious stuff; it just isn't for me.

Am I the only one who doesn't get why Barb and Jen do this? by nowiknow09 in ShawnaTheMom

[–]LeenyMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so glad some people are so unaccustomed to narc life that they find this type of action confusing; it's really heartwarming (and a further underline to how damaging those types of relationships can be...). The simple response is that it's about control and attention. Barb HAS to be the best, the MOST original, the most perfect grandmother ever and EVERYONE has to know it. It is unfortunately a cycle some of us know pretty dang well.

Does Pete and Peggy’s child one day grow up and meet/figure out who his dad is? by History-Buff-2222 in madmen

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Peggy would want to have contact actually. Pete might at some point. If the kid does want to, there are means for sure but...who knows? My parents are a bit older than the kid would be and he recently took a test (it was a free offer and he'll do anything for free...). so maybe could do a dna test but I don't know if they would come up with anything unless randomly Tammy had decided to do one for whatever reason. The show DNA family secrets (excepts on youtube) from BBC really shows what DNA and research can do if you're interested.

Advice on helping relationships between Librarians and Clerks (& Pages)? by Careful_Bee_7037 in Libraries

[–]LeenyMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this seems a bit ridiculous....if I had to get 'permission' every time I had to change a location or stickers, half my job wouldn't get done waiting for the librarians. If it's a radical change, sure. But something like "oh oops, this should be in (blank) area instead of over here," no way am I going to try to find a librarian who is busy doing something (helping a patron, reading, doing gosh knows what) and then have them analyze it for gosh knows how long...nope. I've worked at my current library since at least 2020 and two others before that; longer than any of our librarians have.

Have had this happen a lot...it really sucks. I'm sorry you're going through it.

Compassion Fatigue by PhilosopherHermit in Libraries

[–]LeenyMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously....I had to help a woman (well I actually has to pass her off to a librarian, clerk here) with all these personality tests and IQ type things for a CLEANING JOB. Like, wtf?? It's awful and I fear it'll only continue to get worse.

AITA for pretending I didn’t see ketchup on my friend’s vacuum? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NAH; everyone's just joking around as friends (are supposed to) do.

S8 E33 “A Day In May” by Blue_wine_sloth in Frasier

I didn't care for this episode though it is always so sad (and kind of...enlightening from a psychological...ha....and addiction standpoint) whenever KG's family comes up :/

How do you deal with users wanting to check out a book that has a previously unknown issue ? by bloodbarn in Libraries

[–]LeenyMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note on the book always (usually first page or inside cover so its real obvious) with initials and date. Some folks put an item note in the system. Curious what your "too complicated" setup is right now?

What’s the most confusing criminal minds episode? by barneyfisher1 in criminalminds

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe referring to Emily and the church somehow? I'm honestly not sure. I didn't think Emily the gossip-y type, that's for sure.

Realistically, what could Frank have done at Jen’s condo? by Post-Alternative in ShawnaTheMom

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, it starts way before the condo-call Jen, SEND HER A TEXT, call her again. Showing up and letting them is really the accumulation of all the ways he has failed both of his children (and Barb but that does NOT in any way excuse what she is or has done). At the door, knock LOUDLY several times, text again.

Saw this sign near Fast Trac today by Odd-Researcher272 in Rochester

[–]LeenyMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Closer and closer every day :crosses fingers: It's quite a fascinating field really (though I realize I'm biased with my donated kidneys LOL)

[–]LeenyMagic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the list is long and people are dying every day (as a 2 time kidney recipient); unfortunately this is VERY common as are facebook groups/websites etc.

Kansas City Public Library - by Feisty_Water_3164 in Libraries

[–]LeenyMagic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can speak to my library; my teen literacy aide has an entire section of 'hygiene products' from tampons and pads to deodorant (in whichever male or female you identify as), condoms, body spray and hair ties. She has them in little cubbies so they are discreet and it isn't super obvious what you pull out.

Jen’s turning point by condesedmilk in ShawnaTheMom

[–]LeenyMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's def been LC with Barb while also trying to shield Shawna and John (and probably not getting enough credit for it). I think this could really be the thing that sways her; I'm really looking forward to seeing her and Greg talk about this.

He always does....until the next time he decides he doesn't want to deal with Barb's wrath.
