Jun. 22nd, 2020 04:06 pmOkay, I am not actually bad at my job (hooray!) but also, it turns out that 3 months is definitely enough time for my body to just entirely forget how physically tiring my job is.
Books are heavy! We have a lot of backlog to process and no parts of the shift where it's my job to sit at a desk and answer questions (since there are no patrons in the building), so it's all lifting and moving books all the time! We're on short shifts this week and it's a good thing, because 5 hours of nothing but continuous check-in and shelving is fucking exhausting.
On the plus side, no patrons in the building means I get to listen to music while I shelve. So that's cool.
