    Default I love my new job!

    Two weeks ago, I got a job at our public library as a circulation clerk. I just love working at the library. It is the perfect job for me! Everyone I work with is so nice. I just can't believe my luck in landing this job. We are moving the library to a new, larger building next year, and that will make it even better. I hope I can work there until I retire. They seem very happy with me too, and are already telling me that my position will probably become full-time (with benefits) within a year (working 30 hours a week now), and that there is room for advancement.

    I've always wondered what it'd be like to work at a library.

    Congrats on your new job!
