A lady came up to the desk with our copy of today’s local newspaper and she says to me she says, “I’m taking this.”
“What do you mean?” I ask.
We don’t allow the newspapers to be checked out, but also she didn’t ask to check it out.
“I’m gonna take this home, but I’ll bring it back tomorrow.”
Then I crushed her dreams for the evening by telling her she couldn’t take our paper home.
“But I’ll bring it back.”
“I’m sure you will, it’s just policy. None of our papers are allowed to leave the library.”
“Well. I guess that’s okay”
