I've got an idea, lets all call FIRST HQ tomorrow and whine about how unfair the rules are! (sarcasm)
Instead of complaining about something, why not just go by the rules. I it find ironic that some of the people who complain the most, are the first ones to talk about "Gracious Professionalism". As mentors and experienced team members we should be setting the example, not teaching new members if we complain/whine enough maybe we can get our way. Like a small child throwing a temper tantrum.
Let's remember the reason for Wed. night is to uncrate the robots, so the crates can be removed. Can you imagine what it would be like if this had to be done Thur. morning, with all the forklifts w/crates. (Like our 1st year in Atlanta.) Due to the tornadoes our pit area is half the size,(Making room for the auto show) making this year's aisles looking smaller, and with a lot less room in the pits. This makes for a dangerous situation. All it takes is for one person to get seriously hurt. Then lets see how the rules change.
Maybe this year, if everyone goes by the rules, and behaves themselves, and show gracious professionalism, next year they will relax the rules.
