Have I mentioned I hate job-hunting?

There's nothing that makes you feel quite so much like a waste of carbon as getting turned down for a library shelver position. I didn't even make the interview.

If it makes you feel any better, library jobs are incredibly competitive. When I worked in HR for the University of Missouri, we had applicants with PhDs applying for $8/hr front desk jobs in the library because the library market was so tight.
