Patron: Hi, I'm calling to find out if you have Jurassic Park on the shelf.
Me: Um, that's definitely an adult title, so let me transfer to your call to the reference dept.
Patron: They just transferred me down to you.
Me: That doesn't make any sense. People get eaten in that movie. It's definitely NOT a children's title.
Patron: That's what I thought, but she said you guys had it.
Me: Let me check the computer to be sure.
::checks computer, finds that it is, in fact, on the shelf in the ref dept with the call number DVD JU::
Me: It's definitely upstairs, so I'm going to transfer you back up there and tell them exactly where it is.
Me: Hey [fellow co-worker], did you just transfer a call down to me looking for Jurassic Park?
Co-Worker: Yes.
Me: People get eaten in that movie. The catalog is telling me that's definitely upstairs by you guys.
Co-Worker: And see, my computer is saying it's in Juvenile.
Me: No it's not, the call number is JU for Jurassic, not juvenile.
Co-Worker: Oh.
