[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You treat it like any other professional setting, and quit in a manner that affords them some time to replace you. Just like in a job, two weeks notice would be appreciated if your commitment is weekly. If you know anyone who would be of a benefit to the organization, you could make a referral.

It’s too bad that you volunteered, when it seems to be all about you, because it should be all about helping the other people. I guess that ship has sailed though. Please don’t volunteer again. [/quote]

Wow, you seem harsh. I am a volunteer for many organizations and give generously of my time. I'm also a person who has other commitments including young kids. My "match" is hard to reach by email and phone. It is hard to schedule things with them.[b] We are in a pandemic, making outdoor activities preferable yet weather-dependent[/b]. I'm wondering why you felt the need to be so needlessly harsh. It's all about the match, which isn't working out, and for volunteer relationships to flourish and sustain, which I'm sure you must realize, both parties need to get something out of it.[/quote]

Good grief. Were you this hysterical during H1N1? [/quote]

Why would it be even remotely “hysterical” to take simple precautions to prevent the spread of a deadly virus? Do you also think it is hysterical to wash your hands or cover your mouth to sneeze? What’s the difference?[/quote]
