'Entitled woman is fuming at how loud I am': Library assistant loudly eats nachos during meeting with trustees because 'it's policy'

This worker shared a day in the life of their job as a library assistant. Though it seems like a whimsical job, there's apparently much more to working in a library than meets the eye. 

This person writes that they had jobs at two different library branches. One of these jobs was a piece of cake, while the other was home to some rather haughty trustees. As u/localanimenerd shared in their malicious compliance story, they've realized that one trustee in particular seems to dislike them. 

The story involves the ethics of when and where one should eat in a library, which is a polarizing topic. Many libraries ban not just food but all drinks too. That's a good way to save books from getting full of sandwich crumbs, or soggy from a spilled soda. But on the other hand, having a little snack while eating is a lovely way to spend an afternoon. So you can see the dilemma libraries find themselves in. Many libraries offer a happy medium, though: they might have a room or two where food is allowed. Usually these rooms are meant for group projects or working on homework with your friends, and the rules are a bit more relaxed. 

After you read this person's story, check out these cases of workplace foolishness, like the dude who was caught photocopying his slice of pizza.
