Miss Information is annoyed on Saturday

First of all, it's cold. Miss Information hates cold. So that's annoying. 
 
Second of all, it's so cold that the ticket machine in the parking lot is frozen and won't let her in until she swipes her credit card. She likes to pay cash on Saturdays because the flat rate is $5. So that's annoying. 
 
Third of all, it's cold inside the library. By 3:30, Miss Information has lost the feeling in her feet. It's not like she didn't wear thick socks today either. That's really annoying. 
 
Then there's actual work which is strange. A man in a yellow hat ( but no monkey) keeps coming in although he's been banned because he punched a random person for no apparent reason earlier in the week. Security keeps throwing him out but he keeps coming back in. If he took off the hat, no one would recognize him. 
 
While talking to the person in charge about Yellow Hat Guy, she disclosed that there had been a flasher in the branch in one of the other departments earlier. He was wearing a trench coat. So cliché. 
 
Around 3 pm, Miss Information has lost the will to live and is just trying to keep warm by snuggling up with the printer and picking out which books would make the best kindling. 
 
Customer: Where is the men's washroom, please?
Miss Information: There is one on the second floor and one in the basement.
Customer: I've tried them both. (he leaves)
 
Does he mean he tried and failed?
