Something occurred recently that felt so natural I knew things weren't right. I have started referring to other libraries by their NUC symbol (mostly used in Document Supply) in daily conversation with normal non-MUL people. Case in point, I was giving directions to a relative and explained 'It's the theatre opposite NUN, you know the one?' (even pronouncing it 'noon') and waited for their nodding approval.
It did not come.
After a pause, I backtracked and attempted to speak English. (the university of new south wales is such a mouthful though!)
The incident made me think, what are the other quirky ways you know you work in a Library?
Sadly I can add that even on weekends when 10:30am rolls around I think 'Morning Tea!'
Do you have any sad and worrying examples to add?
