[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][i]Boo-fucking-hoo! In the real world an employee at 7-11 does more than that before a Librarian even gets out of bed! People around here think that just because you have a masters degree that it automatically makes you smart. I know plenty of people in this area that have the degrees, but are just as unknowledgeable as people that don't. It also always amazes me how people deduct that longevity / tenure should automatically mean that you deserve a lot of money. Librarians are teachers who decided to take the easy way out. Ask a real teacher and you'll see what I mean!

I guess you must think the PE teacher, counselors, art teachers, and music teachers are worthless cop-outs too?   They are on the same salary scale as teachers too.
I hope if you are a teacher you are not teaching in my daughter's school.   Shudder..[/quote]

No, actually, I would hold all of those other teachers in higher regard than the Librarians. I hear of Librarians that have a Master's degree and it reminds me of people that get degrees in outdoor recreation. Really, I mean REALLY?....

As a side note, I'm glad that you wrote daughter's instead of daughters', because this indicates that you only have one, which means that you're watering down (dumbing down) society less than if you had multiple children! I'm hoping that your other half is more intelligent than you are, otherwise your DD doesn't stand a chance in this cesspool that we call life!

YOU give me douche chills! [/quote]

Sorry, folks, but it sounds like you're focusing only one librarians who work in K-8 school settings.  That is just one subset of librarians.  Many librarians are research specialists specializing in law, medicine, or technology.  Others are preservationists with significant training in the sciences and technology as related to archiving and restoring information that has been recorded on an ever-evolving body of physical media.  When an oncologist calls a medical research librarian and asks him to pull journal articles on a particular subject STAT because a patient's life is at risk and some new procedure might be the last resort, I'm damn glad that librarian has a masters degree, because that helps her know exactly what to look for, where, and right quick.[/quote]
