LIS News lead me to this article, 13 questions with a library branch manager. The article is sort of what you might expect from the title, but this excerpt is great.
“
Q: Have you ever had any comical experiences on the job? If so, what happened?
A: Wow, I have comical experiences almost every day. The one that immediately comes to mind was when a member of the library staff was out among the shelves and a little girl said, “Excuse me.” The staff member asked, “What can I do for you?” and the little girl said, “You can get out of my way.” But like the time the automatic door was mysteriously opening because a spider had taken up residence in the sensor, something funny is always happening.”
