Re: Terrible Volunteer Experience

Interestingly enough, we had members of our group who volunteered and were first told the wrong time they had to be at the event on Friday (7am instead of 10am) and then when 10am came around they were either told they weren't needed or were only busy for a few hours before being let go.

We also had people come in on Friday who had signed up to volunteer but were turned away.

These people were all willing volunteers that ended up with a lot of time on their hands. Perhaps the coordinators at the event will consider rotating out the safety glasses volunteers since people who were signed up in VIMs were free.
