To the man sitting next to me this morning in the library

This post is adressed to the middle aged 'gentleman' who was in the 'study' section of St. Albans central library this morning, but others could learn from it!


Of course the clue is in the name 'study' area.

So sitting with your laptop laughing out loud to something on facebook is slightly disruptive.

constant sniffing is annoying, you may have a cold? keep it to yourself!

Headphones mean you can keep your noise to yourself, so if someone asks politely 'could you turn that down please?' dont reply 'can you hear that? I find that hard to believe' well there you go I must be lying then!

So thank you, from a mature student trying very hard to do the best she can in the rare few hours she has without her children (this morning was exactly 1 hour!)

Try and think of others who are actually working there, and use another area next time (after all the library have supplied banks and banks of PC's and desk space everywhere!)
