Sometimes I wonder if the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it. - Mark Twain

Bookstore. Not porn store.
Truth may be stranger than fiction, but it's also so much funnier!
A couple of stories from friends who work at bookstores that I just had to share:
Story #1
From my friend Mike D, who is studying library science and working in a Barnes & Noble:
So, this guy came into the store today looking for a job. Ugly, skinny dude
with big eyebrows and a Vinnie Barbarino (welcome back kotter) accent. He
said he was looking for a "legitimate job" and that he was mostly "a bartender
and took my clothes off." Try saying it with the accent, it's that much
funnier.
I shit you not. According to his resume (which has his picture on it,
self-portrait), he is an exotic dancer and bartender. Wow. Highlight of my
day.
Story #2
From my friend Janelle, who is a public health major and working in a Borders - her former supervisor got a call from a guy wanting to know:
Guy: "Do you guys have books on sexuality?"
Supervisor: "Why, yes, we do."
Guy: "How about anal sex specifically?"
Supervisor: "Uh-"
Guy: "Because I am trying to convince my girlfriend to do that with me. Can you give me any advice?"
Supervisor: "Try Barnes & Noble."

I think most jobs should include the former; bookseller/exotic dancer, McDonalds front counter/exotic dancer, brani surgeon/exotic dancer....yep, works ever time. let's try one more; presidential candidate/exotic dancer...
"Try Barnes and Noble." I'll have to use that one at work. ;)
Wow. I'm speechless!
