Being a volunteer at my local Barnes & Noble is honestly relaxing.
Especially during school afternoons where I don’t get a lot of kids coming into the Barnes & Noble.
The best thing about toiling at the Barnes & Noble is being able to get the first opening to read a newly released novel. The worst thing about toiling at the Barnes & Noble is yelling at kids to be quiet. I don’t like to raise my voice however if I have to tell someone three or four times to quiet down, I will. Plus I don’t like being that beatboxregular librarian who tells children to “shush.” Most of the time I’ll let the loud talking go, if there’s not a lot of people in the Barnes & Noble. On one hot summer time weekend, the Barnes & Noble was honestly busy. Because of the large crowd, the Barnes & Noble was start to feel really warm. I went to the programmable thermostat to lower the air conditioner temperature however for some reason it wasn’t toiling. I called the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C provider that normally comes to our Barnes & Noble & inspects our system. He diagnosed the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C system & called to my attention that the seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) was low. This wasn’t a honestly good thing because this meant that there was low energy efficiency. This also means that the Barnes & Noble is wasting energy & paying more cash to run the system than they should be. I called the manager & asked for her opinion because the worker commanded that the a/c be upgraded. The manager agreed to go along with it, since the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C system was seasoned.
