Me, answering phone: Good morning, this is the Free Library!
Patron, on phone: spellingofthewordvocalist
Me: Sorry, what was that?
Patron: vocalistonewhosings
Me: Uhhhh
Patron: Canyou?
Me: I don’t know what you’re asking about. Is that… are you asking for a book?
Patron, getting frustrated: I need to know the spelling! Of the word “vocalist”! You know, like, someone who sings.
Me: Oh!
Me: I know that. V-O-C-A-L-I-S-T. Vocalist.
Patron: Listen. I’m gonna need you to slow down when you speak.
