The Twilight Of Our Literacy
Bookstore | Exton, PA, USA

Me: “Hi, how can I help you today?”

Customer: “I’m going on a 25 hour plane ride, and I was just trying to find something to read.”

Me: “Okay, what kind of books do you read?”

Customer: “Young adult stuff, like romance stuff. OH! Or something with vampires.”

(I walk her over to the young adult section. And show her a series with vampires. There are six books in the series and each book is quite small-not even 200 pages.)

Me: “Well, you might like this series. They’re easy books to read, but really good. I’ve read them.”

Customer: *flips through book* “It seems boring.”

Me: “Oh. Well, I can assure you it’s not. They are quite action-packed.”

Customer: “I mean it looks wordy. Like, there’s a lot of words in it.”

Me: “Well, yeah…most books have words in them.”

Customer: “Hmm…I’ll think about it.”

(She ended up buying 3 teen magazines.)

Just...no.

On an unrelated matter, no news of whether the head honcho showed up at work, but it took me five minutes to receive and cash my paycheck. XD And the food seems to be progressively moving closer to the door, to the point where it's right in the doorway and next to the front door. Dad asked me what I thought about this, and I said, "Yoink!"

Then I said instead of putting food by the door, they should place certain employees there instead...

wtf, randomness, reading, work
