Yesterday afternoon I was working at the library.  Though you wouldn’t think it takes a masters degree to do it, a large part of my job seems to be checking dvds in and out.  Families come in and each member brings back the maximum, six, dvds and checks out another six.  All the dvd cases lock, so as they get checked back in the cases get locked, and as they get checked out the cases get unlocked.  I was having all sorts of trouble with the unlocking equipment at the station I was working yesterday.  Torward the end of the shift a little boy, maybe 6 or 7 watched me struggle to unlock his dvds.  As I finally got them all open he said “You’re not very good at that are you?”  I laughed and said no I wasn’t very good at it.  Then as he watched me scan them all onto his library card he added “But you’re very good at that!”

Kids.  They make you smile.
