Chris the bookscout spins a tale:

"I'm talking to this dealer, he's got to hire a part-time clerk, and he says, 'I'm just so tired of them answering, "Lifelong love of books," to, "Why do you want to work in a bookshop?", that I'm almost ready to hire anyone who answers differently. What answer would you give, Chris?'

'I want to work in the shop so I can dip the till.' And he just about fell off his chair. No sense of humor, that one."
