I feel like Homer Simpson...when Bart messes with him

First idiot.

Two of the floors have 2 desk each that are "U" shaped. The North and West side have cabinets, counters, and computers for the librarians to use. The South side is just a waist-level wall; usually there is something on the other side, like copy machines or computer stations. East side is open.

So I'm facing North when I hear a voice behind me. I look up but don't look at that direction and say, "yes, how can I assist you." I was hoping the idiot would walk around to face me. But no, she stayed where she was. So I turn around. The idiot was trying to crane around a copy machine to talk to the back of my head. Instead, I don't know, go to a side that isn't obstructed.

She wanted to know where grants come from.

*sigh*

I just love when people think Bill Gates is just going to hand them money.

Next idiot.
NI: Hi, where are the astrology books? The other librarian gave me the wrong call number.
me: oh, did you already go to that call number?
NI: nah, I just figured she gave me the number for psychology, not astrology.
me: what is the number she gave you?
NI: 133
me: that is the call number for astrology.
NI: ok, thanks!

He was happy with my answer, but still, there are so many levels of

Buh....how....why....what could the thought process have been that would cause him to come to that conclusion?! My brain hurts thinking about it.

Well, they both end in ology, so aren't they the same thing?

Just like psychic and psycho - they both start with psych - or aren't they the same?

And while the customers think we are the former, we're tempted to do the latter.

Thought process behind this. Guy comes up for call number for astrology while espousing how "true and awesome it is" LIbrarian rolls eyes and gives him call number he assumes it is the number for the psychology he is clearly so needing help with .
