I completely forgot that I worked in the library when I was in college. I was supposed to be shelving books, but I was more often to be found sitting in the stacks reading the books instead.
I volunteered at my elementary school library when I was 11, too. That one I did remember. I finished a four-week reading assignment overnight, so the teacher sent me to the library every day instead of going to reading class. I loved that.
I always wanted to work at a bookstore, but I never managed to get hired anywhere. Going away to school put a big crimp in my summer job opportunities.
