Is it a Suggest a Purchase Submission or a Job Application?

I know we're not supposed to have favorite patrons at the library.  I mean, that's like having favorite kids! Literally, though, sometimes people just leave their kids at the library, so I probably shouldn't choose my favorites...

 Anyways, I do have favorites and the other day a "Suggest a Purchase Submission" came through that was submitted by one of my favorites, a cute kid who has autism.

Instead of putting in a title of a book he wanted us to buy, he put in his name and then in the comments section he put:

"I would work as librarian as a job at MILLCREEK LIBRARY.  i love to work hard and always happy."

And I just went, "AWWWWWWWWWW."

Moral of the story:  Sadly, it's not that easy to get a job in the library.  Also, as a side not, applying for a job via the "Suggest a Purchase" form is definitely not the best way to apply, although it will get us to notice you and give us a bit of a laugh.
