TAM 9 Volunteers needed

[Piggy]

Notice how SkepticScott carefully tiptoed around mentioning the special jobs for the n00bs? That's because they are THAT special!

They'll be even specialer when I get through with them, I garontee.

hcmom,
The first rule of coordinating volunteers is "don't scare off the volunteers".

 

[JennaMarie]

I'd like to volunteer, assuming I can work out finances to get there.

I just successfully performed the Heimlich Maneuver this evening. I assume that may be handy.

 

[NoisyAstronomer]

Too bad for her. That sucker itches.

Hrmmm... looks like I'll have to sew a liner in it or something. Though, I fear that I am not "wenchy" enough for the task.

Yet another reason why you rock

But volunteers will get a free lunch on Wednesday.

That's right... forgot about the lunch. I MIGHT squeak another day in so that I can attend that. Will adjust hotel reservation when the next sale comes up

I don't think the itchy is anything that could be fixed with a liner. It may only be fixed with fire.

You really aren't missing much. The food at the buffet is not all that good.

I didn't go for the food (though it was free), but to meet the other fresh meat volunteers and JREF staff, but I know that's old hat for you.

 

[SkepticScott]

I think Zooterkin has it right. It's not the food, it's the company.

 

[Disraeli Ears]

Official TAM beer wench?

Having been to TAM last year and experienced this myself, cute girls (and since I know you IRL, I know you qualify ) never have to bring beer/drinks to anyone...beer/drinks will be brought to you.

 

[Kil]

If I make it there, count me in. I've been a volunteer, I believe it's been, the last three TAM's. I never really knew what the hell I was doing, but it felt good doing it!

 

[zooterkin]

I think Zooterkin has it right. It's not the food, it's the company.

And if Scrut is not there, so much the better...

 

[Tamazon]

Of course you can add me to your list Scott.

I'll be arriving early so can help with whatever is needed in the way of set up as well. I tried to help with the package assembly last year but all you overachievers beat me to it.

 

[SkepticScott]

Thanks Tamazon! If we're not going to personalize the folders again this year, I'll make sure I have fewer people on each shift since it's a lot easier making generic folders.

 

[Allecher]

Make sure that Kil and I work a shift together, if possible. We were selling tickets at the door of the talent show and I think we got that one guy to pay twice.

WIN!

Hmmm... I guess the more we work to get women into skepticism, the less of that we'll each see. I can live with that trade-off.

Make mine a Keith's or a Moosehead.
(Don't worry there is 99.9999999999% chance of me not coming.)

Keep in mind that this is Las Vegas. Assuming that they even have those, it'll be "import" priced. If that 0.0000000001% rolls up, make sure to buy your own at duty free...

They're even hard too find outside the maritimes. Plus the last time I had a drink was over a decade ago. The beer I have in the house is leftover from last summer using them for slug traps for the garden.

 

[Piggy]

Crap! The water heater blew out. New heater plus expansion tank plus installation was several hundred bucks, and the only source was my vacation money. (Yeah, I was a slacker and hadn't made my resos and registrations yet.)

So you can take me off the list of volunteers, I'm afraid, cause I can't make it this year.

Hopefully next.

Y'all enjoy.
