Ever feel like smacking someone who's SO stupid? I do. Just to see if their head will re-boot. *sigh*
Patron: Do you have any books on Anne Frank?
Me: Yes, we carry books on her. Unfortunately there has been a high school working on Holocaust projects, so we might be low on Anne Frank books.
Patron: What?!? Anne Frank was in the Holocaust? Hmm.. I don't think that's the right person then.
Me: It's the one that's most commonly asked for. I'll show you the section and you can see if she's the right person.
Patron: Is she still alive? Is there a video interview with her?
Me: Maam, she died in the Holocaust. There isn't an interview with her.
Patron (talking to her daughter): I don't think this lady is showing us the right person.
