Something about the old man cleaning the Library bathrooms and coughing furiously all over the place doesn't seem very sanitary to me.

Earlier tonight I went to the coffee shop in the library. The "fresh" sign had only the magnet up for the Irish Cream. Normally I just get house blend, but I was feeling adventurous, so I decided to go all out and try something new.
So I went up to the counter and ordered a large coffee. I pay, and normally they ask me which type of coffee I want, to which I normally say, "Regular." This time when they asked I was planning to say "Irish Cream." They didn't ask, and just assumed I was alright with the Cream. Bastards.
Now, in all fairness, I was going to order Irish Cream anyway, so no big deal. But the fact that they didn't ask me, and just assumed I was okay with that particular blend really pissed me off. What if I was allergic to Ireland? How bad would they feel when I broke out in hives and passed out at their condiment stand?

The other day I was studying on the first floor of the campus library with a friend of mine. This moderately cute girl came up to us and was like, "Can you help me find these books?" She said that there should be someone on the first floor to help her out, but there wasn't (there never is). I volunteered to help her, and she asked how the system worked. I explained that you just look at the cards placed on the sides of the aisles, which are in descending/ascending order, and go from there. She was like, "Oh," and I took her to where the first book should be.
"What's the book called?"
"Uh, I don't know."
"...well, it's not here, so maybe it's checked out. What did it say in the computer?"
"I didn't look it up, some guy upstairs gave me the call numbers."
So, she was an idiot, and I was getting annoyed. She asked again how to find the books, so I explained it AGAIN, and left her alone. Seriously, when you get into college, they explain all this to you, but how do you even get into college without knowing how to find a book in a library? The worst part was that she was a full-on Monet.
