Closing time at the library. A girl of about four years old and her father have just finished using the self-checkouts and are heading towards the door. The girl looks up at her Dad and asks, “Why are they closing the library?”
He responds, “Because the people who work here have to go home.”
She frowns. “But why can’t they live HERE?”
Why not, indeed? Massive square footage, open concept, tons of natural light, a fireplace, comfy chairs, and thousands of books. I can see where she’s coming from….. 😉
