Librarian Ire

Defining a Nathan.

Probably for the benefit of those who don't know, a definition of a Nathan should be provided. (Nathan was referenced in the previous post concerning morons.)

Nathan (n ae th e n)
n.
Male student worker in a library at an institute of higher learning who is hired based upon a good resume and first impression and who demonstrates, within the first day of work, that they are severely incompetent, unable to communicate, behave in most unusual ways, and overall drive their supervising librarians to homicide. They may or may not be characterized by abnormal facial and body hair, the wearing of women's clothing, and extreme disorientation regarding where they are, where they have been, and where they should be. Once hired, a Nathan is impossible to be rid of until he chooses to leave.

adj.
resembling or suggestive of a Nathan.
