I'm probably the only one that will find these funny, but I had to share.
You might be a museum professional if:
You find yourself compulsively levelling picture frames in restaurants and department stores.
Your first thought is that a mime in the park is a collection manager who has absentmindedly forgotten to remove their white cotton gloves.
You obtain a "non-profit" status for your home.
You take notes while watching Antiques Roadshow.
You think $40,000 a year is a lot of money.
Your co-workers quiz each other to see who can identify more accession numbers.
You arouse anxiety in museum security staff because you pay so much attention to the anti-theft devices.
You pay more attention to legibility of the labels than the contents of the cases.
I'm not a museum professional and I DID find some of the list funny. Are these standard "in" jokes or did you make them up? -LL
