My main "summer" job was within the St. Louis County Library System as a "page." Yes, the joke was that you had a chance to be promoted to a "chapter." My main job was to clean returned books and put them back on the shelf. Man, for several summers, I was the world's foremost expert on the Dewey Decimal System.
