Status Updates From Is This a Cry for Help?: A ...

Her library job is certainly a different experience than my library job.... (I mean, thank god, but...)

finally getting to the arc ive had sitting in my inbox for four months

i had already laughed and cried by page 6

“Why did I choose this job? Why did I pursue this? Why didn't anyone warn me that I'd spend days telling people not to cook meat in the bathroom while hearing others chant from outside that I'm a pedophile? I just wanted to be around books and help people.”

This is so real bc my library interviews always felt more catered to crisis management than book knowledge.

“,it's also important that we have access to information that represents different viewpoints-even viewpoints that are widely considered bad. Engaging with information that opposes our own opinions can open our minds up to new ideas, and it can help us get a deeper understanding of our own position. This is part of what justifies keeping reading information that's hateful or ignorant.“

This.
