Hannah Gadsby on rape culture (x)
I will always reblog this.
The school musical opens in a week. I’m in charge of coordinating the volunteers for rehearsal potlucks, dinners, and performance nights. The tricky part is I have to coordinate not just between the drama parents but also the orchestra parents, choral parents, and parents of elementary school kids that have parts in this musical.
I don’t mind doing it because I have strong organizational skills and handle most of the stuff through email.
However the booster club president is micro managing me to the point that I’m about to snap. Another parent handed out flyers last week asking for signups, AFTER I CLEARLY TOLD HER I WOULD HANDLE IT.
The booster club president also wants to hold yet another board meeting on Tuesday to make sure we have enough volunteers. I’ve been trying to ‘patiently’ explain to her that the parents that show up for these meetings have already signed up to be volunteers so the meeting is moot.
Also next week I am at the school Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night, and Saturday all day. I really don’t need another meeting.
This morning a parent called me after I sent out the updated volunteer signups last night. Apparently I had left her name off. She was upset about this and then upset because when she told me that she would help on Tuesday I didn’t react with excitement.
Seriously…I can’t win.
