[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Note to PVS and UMD event staff. There is a saying “You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar”.

I’m less inclined to help out with timing multiple sessions when I’m a paying customer (meet fees - where does that money go?) and your staff is flat out rude and yelling.

Maybe UMD has more issues getting timers because of how they treat volunteers? As someone pointed out meets at GMU, PWCS, Fairfax Co, don’t seem to have these issues. They might be looking for a few volunteers at the start but it hasn’t been the catastrophe of UMD.[/quote]

It’s got absolutely nothing to do with UMD staff or the security contractors/CSC.

The decision to not let parents into the stands and or to kick parents out of the building is coming from PVS deck officials. This is a PVS induced problem that needs a real solution. [/quote]

The real solution is parents step up and time.   [/quote]

And I’m not going to step up any extra when I being treated disrespectfully. [/quote]

If you had volunteered to time when your coach sent out the notice in the first place, none of it would have happened.[/quote]

Thanks, but I did my shift. Not doing any extra with the hostile environment.

And to the PVS officials - yes, you all volunteer a ton and it is very much appreciated.

That said, if someone is down right rude after you did your shift and you missed DCs swim due to not being allowed in but the meet started, you would be inclined to sign up for an extra stroke and turn shift on short notice? Doubt it.[/quote]

I doubt any of the comment about volunteering are directed at your specific situation.[/quote]
