Yeah, my employer knows about this blog. I don't hide that fact from them. They don't endorse it but neither is it disapproved.Ivan Chewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727226573817276108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-1131638431921807372005-11-11T00:00:00.000+08:002005-11-11T00:00:00.000+08:00Thanks for dropping by...Increasing the loan limit...Thanks for dropping by...<BR/><BR/>Increasing the loan limit was cool,but i also felt that extending or waiving off renewal fees should also apply during this 'promotion period' too since you can borrow up to eight books.<BR/><BR/>btw, does your employer knows you've got a blog and you are helping with the reviews? you should get them to sponsor your page and then make it BIG AND KNOWN. ha. just kidding. only a thought.<BR/><BR/>Cheers!bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351392201744668270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-1131636677599802932005-11-10T23:31:00.000+08:002005-11-10T23:31:00.000+08:00Responses to the 2 anonymous comments:>>>Working l...Responses to the 2 anonymous comments:<BR/><BR/>>>><BR/>Working long hours on alternating shifts really takes alot out of you. How to find time to read consistently??<BR/>>>><BR/>I don't work shifts in my current job capacity. It's still a challenge to find time to read but there are ways -- on the train to and from work; read instead of watching TV... it's like asking, "where do you find time to eat?". If you have to, you have to.<BR/><BR/><BR/>>>><BR/>tried to borrow 8 books, but the machine didn't let me. by the 4th book, it said i'd exceeded loan limit.<BR/>>>><BR/>Hope you weren't too inconvenienced. Definitely a systems error. Might happen to some membership accounts. Not a major problem -- just approach the staff at the Customer Service Counter and they'll issue the items to you.Ivan Chewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02727226573817276108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-1131617265843737062005-11-10T18:07:00.000+08:002005-11-10T18:07:00.000+08:00i went to the library 2 days ago, saw that same po...i went to the library 2 days ago, saw that same poster, tried to borrow 8 books, but the machine didn't let me. by the 4th book, it said i'd exceeded loan limit. because i was in a rush, i didn't get the chance to ask the librarian. so what's up with that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424038.post-1131613365928217302005-11-10T17:02:00.000+08:002005-11-10T17:02:00.000+08:00Yeesh...Can't complaint, after all, it's an additi...Yeesh...<BR/><BR/>Can't complaint, after all, it's an additional benefit granted.<BR/><BR/>But I'd much rather have them remove the renewal fee, or at least lengthen the period you can keep the books before renewal.<BR/><BR/>Working long hours on alternating shifts really takes alot out of you.
