As mentioned in my About Page I used to work in the trades before going to school and becoming a librarian. Blue-collar work, as they say.

Back in December, I was talking with my spouse about my ideas of giving blogging another go. We were kicking around different blog name ideas. We had tons of them, most of them terrible, but before I settled on the name, Librarian in the Wild, my spouse actually recommended calling this blog The Blue-Collar Librarian.
