Maybe this comic discussion forum isn't for you.

Unless Jeph said it, since he owns the place.

In this case it was Jeph.
Let's not forget that this forum is not a public service - it's Jeph's private territory and none of us is entitled to anything while we're here.

Ha! I did wonder. Didn't search.

No, it wasn't Jeph!! Way to spread misinformation to prove your agenda. Point proven.

What point? You could just tell us when this happened, if it still matters to you.

You've said so before, but you're still here saying it again. Why? If you want us to put something right that you think is wrong, then help us by explaining; then perhaps you'd feel able to stay after all.
NemesisDancer:
Reading the posts in this thread about library jobs and wishing it was that easy to get one here in the UK (and, indeed, that they paid quite so well). Libraries here are government-funded and due to the government insisting on giving as little money to local councils as possible, it's near-impossible to become a librarian/library assistant here (unless you want to be on a zero-hours contract as a relief librarian and get maybe four hours of actual library work per month if you're lucky) as most libraries are severely underfunded or even closing down altogether.
Academic libraries are still an option, but even then you're competing against hundreds of other applicants, and in both cases knowing the right people and having people skills are more important than knowing about books, IT systems, and libraries themselves. As a failed prospective librarian myself I can relate to Claire's feelings a lot in the current arc (incidentally I've ended up working in music now instead, thus rendering my English Literature degree useless) - and I disagree with the notion that Claire would turn her nose up at a Library Assistant job, given how hard these jobs are to get even if you have work experience and/or the right qualifications.
