Most undervalued job

[LightWaves1636]

Most of this is just personal stuff with my team

Safety Captain - My team would keep passing the job along and then when it reaches this one sophomore, he just tosses the button, this pissed me off how uncaring they were about it

Strategist - We consider it important, it's just the way our strategist gets treated on our team, well just the "boys" are mean to him which was truely unfair because he's just as important to the drive crew as the drivers, even the human player

Keeping the pit area clean - between matches and stratgizing, I would end up cleaning a majority of the pit, except when our coach gets to the pit first and then he starts cleaning it, this annoys me because we this sophomore that's there all the time and the only reason he wants to be there is to lay under the table and play his gameboy, bugged me evn more when he used the laptop cases as pillows, with the laptops still in them

Battery Changing - Drive crew had to keep taking care of it

Mascot - at the Colorado Regional, nobody wanted to do it which dissappointed me because our cheering section was like 5 people,

Drive Crew - now this is personal, it's because how practice day went for us, I told the drive crew to get sleep and eat healthy, unfortnately we had a bad practice day because nobody on the drive crew took care of themselves, except I tried to. I couldn't sleep at all because I was stuck with on of the parents and her snoring was loud, raspy, and annoying(I even went into the hall and still heard it-it's true, the media captain can vouch), so for practice day I go a half hour sleep(I didn't sleep the night before either because I had to finish some stuff before I went on the Atlanta trip). Our strategist was being harassed by the chassis driver, human element, captain, and extra person, so our strategist never got any sleep(This also pretty much says the human element and Chassis driver was awake all night as well). We get to practice, we concentrate, we can score, and we were all stressed out and over reacting to things. Luckily drive crew stepped it up and our assistant coach gave me and the media captain our room like it should have orginally been(Finally, sleep, I crashed and skipped swimming with the team).

Media Crew - They just don't get it, simply that.

It greatly irritated me(plus the 13 other people on the team, well plus the parents, and the coaches) at championships how this sophomore on our team just laid in our pit area to play his game boy and we would tell him to go away if he wants to do nothing and get in the way and he starts complaining how he can't play his gameboy in the pit area(yeah, especially when we had to fix the arm-well improve the strength and speed of it-and a couple of our team members tripped over his legs and cut themselves because he was lying underneath the table, he didn't even say sorry, he even yelled us to watch where we're going and wanted us to say sorry for stepping on his legs and distrubing his video gaming)

I guess, it's just that it didn't matter how improtant a person's job was on the team, it was that the job was taken for granted and that really dissappointed me.
