Peninsula Library Palos Verdes 👎👎😡 SUCKS

https://maps.app.goo.gl/3NpR3KWAUhcNkKMd6 
Upstairs, by the parking entrance there's now a table for one person to plug in. So it looks like a new regular has claimed it as his spot. Problem is he leaves his stuff there plugged in and walks around. Then he acts suspicious towards everybody. If you're afraid your cheap little laptop might get stolen you creep, then take it with you rather than treat all of us like potential suspects. There's NO FREAKIN COMMUNITY at this library. It's so dreadful and getting worse.

Now they put a lock on the electric curtains on the mezzanine so an employee has to put them up and down. Well, the sun was over the hill, so it would have been nice to put them back up for a few hours since the light is so dim but NOBODY ever came up to do their job. So I got to stare at a white curtain instead of the nice outdoors.

The ROBOT 🤖 is still at the same computer 🖥️ 2 years later. I swear he's a MANNEQUIN.

I experienced an ABUSIVE SITUATION here when I asked a lady if she could please be quiet because she was actually yelling into her phone on the other side of the computer kiosk.. she thought that was asking too much and literally growled at me " I don't have to be quiet " 👿. .. even though the little sign on each computer kiosk says " this is a quiet area ". etc I'll finish this later.b
