This despite Verity and Pansy being on site all day. Verity and Pansy run two of our busiest branch libraries but Julia has decreed that Umpty Library cannot be without A Professional. Unlike all the other libraries in the borough, including Helminthdale Central which is three times busier than Umpty.

The equivalent of having your legs firmly shackled in a mangle
There's nobody officially in charge at Helminthdale Central Library today unless it happens to be me or Frog. Posy's theoretically in charge this week but she's been press-ganged into being the responsible adult at Umpty Library today.

One would not wish an amateur to be in charge anywhere. I know this to my cost.
You're in charge already???
This blog may have a small change in tone then...
When the cat's away...
What fun!
I rather like the federalisation of the governance of your library empire
Madame DeF: in my experience, the people who have to tell you that they're A Professional are the biggest amateurs in Christendom.
Macy: nah, I side-stepped it, as did Frog, so the place ended up being run by one of his glove puppets. Until Lippy's stuffed toys declared martial law.
Pat: since T.Aldous (officially!) retired this is pretty much how this place is run these days.
Nota Bene: federalisation. Like in "Lord of the Flies."
