Episode notes
Silent Auction Misunderstanding
- Dwight misinterprets a silent auction as a price guessing game, winning all items by bidding the highest.
- The writer's sister had a similar real-life experience with misunderstanding a silent auction and nearly buying a $17,000 Italian sofa.
Libraries as Community Pillars
- Local libraries run entirely by volunteers can be vital community centers, especially in underserved areas.
- Office Ladies supports small community libraries through donations and sharing their impact stories.
