If you have been to San Francisco downtown's Rasputin Music store you
have probably taken the elevator, a closet-size box christened the
Transporter Room, to go between floors. You would probably have pity on
the operator, who spends hours sitting in that claustrophobic box.
SFGate.com took an interest on them and run an interesting story
today. In the elevator you might find painters, poets and other
intellectuals as well as a trained librarian, and someone with a Ph.D.,
as well as aspiring musicians running it.
Believe it or not, among the store's steady stream of job applicants, there are always some people who want to apply just for that gig.
