Aaaaand my least favorite patron just came in and, in the space of not even five sentences, managed to call me "young lady" and refer to the whole of our library staff as "you gals".

Fuck that guy. I hope he loses his favorite socks.




ETA - And then another patron asked me to find the name of an author for her and, when I did, told me I was a "good girl".

LOST SOCKS FOR EVERYONE.

Next time you see him say: "And how are *you* today, young man?"

Or point him in the direction of the children's section.

Wow, people? No, just....No. I'm sorry you had such folks existing around you today.

ARGH! We have one client who consistently calls me 'good girl' and it drives me directly up the wall.

My boss also calls myself and the rest of the staff 'ladies' and 'you gals' and I really hate it but cannot tell her.

I wish people who use those phrases will step on legos.

Was there anything nearby that you could accidentally stab them with?

Off with their favorite socks!

[frenchroast]

Even better, wish that they lose *one* of their favorite socks, so the other one is always hanging around, reminding them of what they can't have.
