Reference Question of the Week – 9/28/14
October 4th, 2014 Brian Herzog
While I was talking to a patron, the phone rang and my coworker answered it. She listened for a little while, said "Yes, I think so," and then hung up.
Any time that happens, you know it's going to be a story.
She turned to me afterward and said the patron just asked her,
Is Boston Market considered fast food?
Yes. Her logic is that any restaurant where you order at a counter and pick up your own food is fast food - if you order at a table and your food is brought to you, it's not fast food. That seems like a good distinction, and apparently it satisfied the patron as well.
Sometimes, the hardest thing about working in a library is not getting to ask, "why?"
