Busy Busy...

This weekend is going to be spastically busy...

Yeah. That's right. I said it. Spastic. That's how un-pc and totally hipster I am.

Anyways... I have been helping out with this school holiday program called Shepp Shed (http://www.sheppshed.com)... What a fucking mistake that was.

Ok, so the people running Shepp Shed asked STAG (The local theatre company I am involved in) to provide some volunteers to help out, which is fine. However, we are then treated like shit, given no respect and expected to dedicate our time to the project. 9.30 - 4 Monday to Friday. Now, clearly the people who are able to help out are on holiday. These people are giving up their free time and what thanks do we get? None.

The other thing that is getting on my goat is that this project has been given $10,000 to fund it... I don't know where the fuck they're spending it all because the Performing Centre for the performance has been rented out for free (something STAG has never been able to do), STAG have loaned all the cotumes and make up to them and the people working there are volunteers. I'd say it's paying for the two people who organised it alls wages and the meals that they go out for every night.

Oh. But STAG are getting a very generous donation of $500. Whoo. Out of all that money, that's all they could spare when we are the ones donating our time and services... It's bullshit.

Anyway, that wasn't really why I was writing this blog.

I am writing to discuss my busy weekend. (wow, that sentence sounds like a business letter)
