Meanwhile, in libraries: "I'm being laid off? WHY? No budget for so many staff? But I'm only part time, I don't even get health insurance... PLEASE, I'll lose my house!"
lol, good job, OP - really stuck it to the man!
Using your free library card to rent free things and returning them without paying a late fee isn't going to get anyone laid off or any library closed.
True.
And it's not like those fees don't cap before they hit a point where they'd be meaningful in that way.
Also not a good idea to piss off librarians though.
I’m pretty sure they don’t rely on fines to operate.
