The secret's out. There is another stereotype for librarians out right now, passive aggressiveness.
To celebrate National Library week, Buzzfeed collected 20 Passive Aggressive Library Signs. If I knew they were looking for contributions, I could have added another 20 to that.
Here's to National Library Week!
I don't think it's a secret that librarians are a passive aggressive bunch -- most of the ones I've met would rather go out of their way not to confront someone in favor of sending an email, or more likely, an anonymous little namby-pamby post-it note on someone's screen.
ReplyDeleteForgot to use my sarcasm font, but I completely agree with you.
ReplyDeleteI think dealing with the mix bag that is the general public, the best way to act is passive aggressive. Librarians are way too nice.
