Am I the only person with this job?

[nobrakes8]

newsletters fell under the responsibility of the website team on my old team, however they were always given other stuff to do, which is why the website and newsletters were never done (except in 2005, it seemed everything went as planned, but that was the only time)..

Also our team did an hours system.. Where you had to do so many hours to go to be on the drive team (they figured if you're not there then you don't know enough about the robot to be on the drive team), and you had to do so many hours to go to the event on thursday, so many hours to go on friday, etc..

We'd always have like 3-4 students just hanging around with nothing to do everynight trying to accumlate hours... So like they always got stuck on the jobs nobody wanted to do since they really weren't part of any subteam.. One night they might be organizeing tools for us, another night they might be machining parts with loose tolerances so somebody like me could dedicate time to other stuff, maybe they'd go work on an old robot to get something working and do troubleshooting etc..

Those people ALWAYS turned out to be critical since without them important stuff wouldn't get done.. They maynot have worked on any particular critical part of the robot, but without their work the little stuff would never get done and we would have had lots of problems come ship date..
