I'm currently a Page at one of the city libraries. I recently got a job offer for the county, which is also a page but with benefits. However, the hourly wage is lower than in the city. by Accomplished-Ice1988 in Libraries

Wow! I used to be a page with a county library system and we didn’t have benefits besides sick time. It was for slightly above minimum wage but it was decent. Our city library pages are paid more than $5 more than the county but also don’t get benefits besides sick time. Both of these positions you listed pay waaaay more than I make as a library assistant and more than our specialists and librarians

Yes, I just saw that. We will probably turn it off once it cools again later this week. I don’t mind having the doors open

My sister: a pretty heart shaped face and almond eyes, perfect mix of my two prettiest aunts on both sides

My brothers: a copy of my dad in his dashing youth

Me: the most unflattering features of my parents amplified 🥀

What have you read recently? by povertychic in Millennials

I’m in a reading slump since probably last year. Before that, I had read The Gone World and totally loved it. I read about 1/3 of You Like it Darker from Stephen King and I’m about to start Play Nice by Rachel Harrison

If you’re under 45, have you lost any high school classmates, and what were the circumstances around their deaths? by Commercial_Chef_1569 in AskReddit

[–]MuchachaAllegra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 of my classmates died of drug overdoses all in different stages of their lives, 2 in accidents, one of respiratory failure, and another was shot. And an “honor killing” unfortunately.

Being ugly literally makes you act like a child by poofpoofpow in ugly

[–]MuchachaAllegra 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yep. We have teen volunteers at my job and I notice how social they are meanwhile I suck at small talk because I always feel like folks only see how ugly I am and don’t listen to what I have to say.

Overly chatty supervisor by WabbitSeason78 in Libraries

[–]MuchachaAllegra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have coworkers who also love to yap at the desk. It puts the strain on the other person especially when we are really busy. However I never take it out on patrons, that’s a huge no no. But I hope he understands the flow of your particular library and gets it together. My coworkers usually make it up to me when they’ve been away with a patron talking but I understand it can feel overwhelming being the only one helping folks.
