We had a patron, since deceased, who always had fines and who ALWAYS
said, "You ought to wear a mask and carry a gun" when informed of his
fines.

MM, 

 

"8. Nobody hates a librarian."

 

Lies! At my previous job, there was this crotchety guy who always
complained about the late fees he'd accrued on his account. But he
always refused to speak with the circulation manager because, and I
quote, "I can't think of a more cold, unfeeling bunch than librarians."
