Dumb library fees.

[Thetrufflehunter]

So I lost one a of classmate's library books, and the cost of the book is roughly $11. They are charging me $21, because THERE IS A FEE FOR PROCESSING FEES. In that case, why isn't there a fee for processing the fee for processing the fee? And why isn't there a fee for processing THAT fee? I am just really annoyed by this. Isn't this extortion? Can't I buy a copy of the book to replace for them?

Sorry, I just need to vent the rage of extortion from the local library. They are a {basilica screecher} with all that extortion going on the stack (of books).

Wait till you learn about parking tickets

Buses FTW.

Also, since my family has an Amazon prime account, I can get the book for $8, free shipping. That sounds better than $21... I'm gonna call them up and ask if I can do that instead.

How about speeding tickets? The fee in NC is $30, regardless of your speed. Then they tack in $180 in court costs and other fees, even if you pay online and don't need to go to court!!! That is extortion lol

We do have a great public transportation system. But it's kinda hard to bring all my tools,equipment, and supplies on the train or bus.

Well, that's because California is broke and they need to make money someway 😛

Do you mind me asking what you do for a living? I may be able to help with that problem, as I had to solve that for myself

I'm a plumber. I need my work van. If not for the stuff I keep it stocked with the ability to quickly and in a timely manner go from job to job or go pick up parts.

I completely understand. I attend culinary school, so I have mastered the art of carrying everything in one bag on a crowded bus. I do get yelled at when I bring baguettes home though😁

If you had this conversation with me 3 weeks ago I would have totally been able to. I was in town for a restaurant convention and would have loved to meet someone from this forum.

Solution: don't lose library books, especially if they're not your own
