You need to go, you know, go to this branch or that branch.\" And I had people try to return books to me. \"You can't do that. I can't take them.\" One guy just left his books at the old Pio Pico. He refused. I refused to take his books because not only were we closed, Pio Pico was open in the other place, and he just, \"No, I'm not doing that.\" Okay, well, leave them there. Hopefully the people who took over that office building returned them. But if they did, they did. They didn't, they didn't. I didn't have the ability to return his books. And, you know, it wasn't my job and I didn't—I tried to explain to him that I couldn't do it. But no, it didn't work. But, you know, I spent a lot of time explaining to people that they couldn't come in the building, that we were closed. I've thrown people off construction sites.
