"Clear your accessioning backlog by the weekend."
"I need you to give a half hour talk to the 65 seven year old school kids from the local inner city school on our early Twentieth Century Vorticist art collection tomorrow."
"Can I borrow your stuffed badger from the natural history collection for a stag party I'm having this weekend?"
"Can you show the St.Vitus Dance tour group around the ceramics open display?"
"Please let me see inside your store, just once, go on, you know you want to."
"Do you wear your nitrile gloves in bed?"
"Handling collections are important too"
"Can't you sell it on Ebay?"
