here we go again - opening the doors

[orangerful]

Tomorrow, we open the doors to the library for the public to come in.

10am - 7pm

My branch is very small and we are limiting entry to 12 people at one time to start things out. We're limiting computer use to an hour. We are hoping that people will come in, get what they need, and head out.

And I am really hoping that everyone shows up with a mask.

We has masks to give away, thank goodness. But I am worried about getting some non-masked people who just don't want to wear it. And to them I will say "goodbye" because it's the rule right now to wear a mask and they should be used to it after so many months.

Anyway, send me positive vibes, fingers crossed etc. for tomorrow please. And this week.

Crazy random happenstance - this happens to be the one year anniversary of when I started as a manager LOL. It's like I'm starting all over again!

Sending some Good Luck vibes, but also some envy at having a workplace that's considerably less daft about this.

:Fingers crossed for you:

I hope people behave themselves.

Here's hoping that all goes smoothly. Good luck!

Welcome back :) Life is a bit crazy at the moment, but I will add you back and I will be back here properly in some days.

[schrodingers_time_lady]

\o/ Glad to see you! Good luck with the crazy.

Hope things went well! It's great your library is telling people without masks they can't stay. I wish they were doing that at my job. I hope no one hassles you about that.

Hello! Long time, no speak. Just in case you weren't sure, this is the_redjay/luckweaver from LJ.

I hope starting up at the library again worked out for you! My local libraries have just begun to reopen, and I'm itching to go back in but I'm trying to make sure I go when I really need a new book. I have some at home to read, after all...

Welcome back to blog land! :D Reopening went well, only bummer is that while we were closed, no new books were ordered or processed so our shelves are kind of bare. But people are putting holds on what they want and coming in for them. My branch has been pretty chill so far *knocks on something resembling wood**

Ooft, I can't imagine a bear library. There's something very eerie about that.

... I meant to write 'bare library' but there's something eerie about both of those things, let's be real here.
