Top questions/remarks that I get these days in the fabulous museum that I work, from visitors:
- Where are we?
- What is here?
- What is the museum about? (It is called house of EUROPEAN HISTORY)
- Where am I? (Really?)
- What is the temporary exhibition about? Could you please explain to me? No.
- You look like you are about to cry? Will you be crying? (older man after he insulted me. Yes, I was)
- Touching/ getting dangerously close of one of the very few items not allowed to be touched that has a very obvious sign: do not touch
- What is up? (down?)
- Coffee?
- Tell me about this building. No
- Are we in the Solvay library?
- I am here for the brunch/conference /event (no brunch/conference/event foreseen). Insisting: I have an invitation, there! No madam/sir, this is an invitation for an event at another museum
- What can I do here?
- Don’t you know who I am? No.
- Oh you are closing, it’s fine, we don’t mind, we live nearby.
- Can I help you sir? No (obviously struggling). Two minutes later: how do I use this stupid thing?
To be continued.
Namaste
