I agree with the librarian image issue = people are always telling me that I am not what they expect of a librarian (I wonder what they expect), I assume a beige person wearing beige (acrylic) leading a sad beige life and surrounded by (beige?) cats... my reply is normally "well - at least you only thought I was a librarian - I had you down as an ACCOUNTANT hahahahahah!!!!" works even better if they are an accountant - not that there is anything wrong with accoutants, but I am determined to pass the insult on to someone and keep in going.<BR/><BR/>BTW is monkey-flu better or worse than man-flu?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13280710.post-63947944394003885092007-11-14T05:41:00.000+00:002007-11-14T05:41:00.000+00:00Hope your cold gets better soon, and that you are ...Hope your cold gets better soon, and that you are successful in your flat hunting.

Never mention religion (not that there's anything wrong with it of course, but we're trying to keep things neutral here!) and call yourself an information professional or an information manager instead of librarian. If you want to get something a bit closer to cataloguing elements of your job maybe you could call yourself as a meta-data analyst!<BR/><BR/>Not sure how else you could describe knitting though... the practice of executive yarn-based de-stressing techniques? ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287784537743461703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13280710.post-31881636032162282432007-11-12T20:58:00.000+00:002007-11-12T20:58:00.000+00:00If the potential flatmates are the kind of people ...If the potential flatmates are the kind of people who would stereotype librarians as being 'quiet', then you wouldn't want to live with them anyway.

What timing you have. :) I'm a bit down with something myself.<BR/><BR/>As a fellow knitting Christian librarian, I have to admit that I am the least quiet person I know. Some of my student staff do tend to give me a look over my knitting, but a few want to learn (or so they say). <BR/><BR/>Here's a lovely comic I think you'll enjoy: http://www.unshelved.com/archive.aspx?strip=20051026 <BR/><BR/>Best wishes in healing and finding a new flat.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04256079693688996043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13280710.post-68042907535560301502007-11-09T16:27:00.000+00:002007-11-09T16:27:00.000+00:00Oh Daisy I dont envy you!
