Today's Wacky Library Phonecall:
Me: Kingston Library, this is Sara. How may I help you?
Patron: ::speaking in a slow, dreamy voice:: I'm sitting in the Bainbridge library checking my email and I have a notice that says I have two audiobooks coming due. I turned those in.
Me: All right, I'll look up your record and check on those. ::pulls up the record:: Well, it does look like those are still checked out to you.
Patron: I turned them in.
Me: Let me go check the shelf.
So I put her on hold and go check the shelf. The audiobooks are not there.
Me: Ma'am, I'm afraid they're not here. Would you like me to renew them for you and you can look for them one more time?
Patron: ::very long pause:: Oh, they're right here. I have them.
Me: ...
Patron: Can I turn them in at Bainbridge?
Me: ...yes.
I get all the weird phone calls, I swear to god.
