A door slammed in my face
May. 26th, 2005 12:31 pm...So I'm looking for a window now.
I'm typing this at the library here in town: I've just been enquiring about getting a volunteer position helping out with the summer reading program for the kids department... No such luck: The children's librarian told me very politely that they take volunteers "only for large events like our Teddy Bears' Picnic", and that they have all the help they need for the smaller projects. Translation: We're trying to keep out the pedophiles, even if that means shutting out perfectly harmless decent people.( Rant cut for language. Don't click on this unless you know me very well.... )
So, my next step is to go to the Town Hall and see if they have any postings for job openings at the library. After I do a little shopping therapy downtown: I'm getting one of my birthday presents for myself, namely that set of "Sandman" figurines I saw at Larry's Comics a couple weeks back.
Edited at 9.34 p.m. to add: I forgot to add my "[ranting]" tags in the right places. Sorry about that, folks!
