[quote=Anonymous]So you think she should single-handedly run the carnival? Plan it, set it up, run every booth, clean it up —all single handedly? It’s literally impossible. So she needs volunteers. And since she knows you, she asks you to help fill in spots. How is this a scheme? Otherwise there would be no carnival. Btw we are a focus school where 90% of the active volunteers work full time, including our president. There’s no drama and no “making up work” to look important. We are doing it to help the school. And yeah, sometimes it’s annoying to see the same parents happily bring their kids to events and never help, not once. But that’s life. If you don’t want to help, don’t. But don’t fault your friend, who is undoubtedly spending a ton of unpaid organizing events that benefit the children and their families, for asking for help. [/quote]
