Today is the first day of my blog and the first time you will get to enjoy some of the questions that I get while working at the library. The questions that I get aren't something you would think would be asked at the library, but let me tell you, I get them all the time.
So now ... it starts.
One question that I got was actually on the phone, so as usual, I answered the phone and gave my usual response. "Information can I help you?"
A lady replied with, "Yes, I'd like to know what the square root of 377 is multiplied by x cubed." "Oh, and I need to know what x is."
After hearing this I was honestly dumbfounded. I set the phone down and just sat there for a second looking at my coworker with a look of stupidity. I then picked the phone back up only to find that the person calling had hung-up. Why would someone ask the library for this, I really don't know.
The only thing I can say about this is I got lucky this time. Other, not so much.
