Overheard in the Bookstore 3
Ok, it wasn't really overheard, it was actually said directly to me.
The workload is so overwhelming that I haven't even entered a bookstore in the past 3 weeks (and let's not even begin to discuss how much reading I have accomplished in this time). But yesterday I managed to squeeze in a couple of hours of good ol' Bloor West Village quality time, including wandering around my local bookstore. One of the delightful employees smiled from ear to ear when I walked in, and turned to her colleague in an excited manner to say, "Look who's here, John! Look!"
I smiled back, though somewhat confused, until she explained to me that this morning she had said to her colleague, "I have a feeling that today we will have a visit from Mrs. Storms."
How d'ya like them apples? Bookstore staff that can actually foretell your arrival! Talk about exceptional customer service!
