Pleasures found on the job
I look forward to opening the mail. As a child, I never received enough mail. I receive a lot more at home now that I’m an adult, but the library receives much more. And I get to open it ALL–books, CD’s, magazines, newspapers. I see stuff that will make the patrons happy, too. It’s fun! It’s only recently that I resisted opening the magazine renewal envelopes. I always knew that it was pointless to open them, but it’s the heavy workload that forced me to forgo the pleasure of opening yet another envelope.
