Jan. 26th, 2010 01:36 pmDear Library Patrons,
Amazingly, helping you change the email address on your facebook profile is not, in fact, my job. Especially if you are apparently incapable of reading the text on the computer screen that tell you how to do that.
I mean, I'm a nice person and I'll help you with it anyway, but I'm probably going to privately seethe about it later. Sweet god, how do you not understand that if there is text saying that facebook has sent you a confirmation email that you need to check, then you have to go and read that email? And then, when the email has a link that says "click to activate", that is the link you click.

(Our self-check-out machine is currently out of order.)
Small Child: Are we allowed to check out things today?
Me: Sure. Why wouldn't you be able to?
Small Child: ::points at machine:: Well, it says the machine doesn't work.
Me: ...Yes, but I still work.
Small Child, the robot revolution has not yet come. Meat-based library workers are still allowed to do stuff, I promise.
