I just finished training fo ra new job. I will be working for the Kansas State University Library on what is know as the Annex Project. There is an old building here in town that used to be the Alumni Center. It houses a half a million books. KSU is going to ship all of the books out to Lawrence to a climate-controlled center for preservation. My job will be cataloging, barcoding, and boxing up the books. It is supposed to be a 3 to 4 year project. I think this means I can finally quit my Mall jobs (at least one of them. I am very excited. This also means I will now have my weekends completely free.
One downside to this job is the amound of dust in the air. I only spent an hour there this morning and can already feel it up in my nose. I don't know how those who spend all day there do it without masks.
The other downside is that I will need to be there by 8 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I guess it is a good thing I am a morning person.

You'll get used to the dust after a few weeks. Until then, get some allergy medication (if it bothers you).
