I guess this time, I was the Hare. I ddin’t make it, but well there is always next time.

The March of Dimes found a guess better people for their postions on the National Youth Council…

Sad to say. It almost makes me wonder why I even tried. I mean I am one of the youngest people (I am in Arkansas) to have any kind of leadership in the March of Dimes. I seve on committees. I am a leader. I mean what else do they want?

I can’t say that I wasn’t expecting it. When it takes over four weeks to hear back from an interview.. you can’t help but figure you didn’t make it. 

Unforntaly, it still ticked me off… I mean you put in the effort to do something and make something great.. and in return you don’t get anything back.. I guess thats life that for you… Well best wishes to those that made it.. and maybe I will work with you next year.. maybe not… 

My next March of Dimes thing will be the Signature Chef’s Auction and preparing ASU-J for a March for Babies of its own!

If you read more you will see the e-mail that I got about the NYC should you really care to read it!

Well I guess I am going to start this off by telling everyone that I work for K-mart the #1 National Sponsor for the March of Dimes. They, with the help of its customers and empoyees, have raised over 5 million dollars for the march of Dimes.

That is great! I am proud to say I work for someone that raises that much money! However, the downfall is that this is the the corprate total. I unfortantly work for a K-mart, that last year was the LOWEST ranking store in our district and most likely nation.

I can’t say that I was overly happy about that, but hey.. things were changing around and well now we have some good management and things are looking up!

While Management is GREAT our employees are absolutly not into it. Today I went into work to do some shopping and went to the back to check on the totals thus far for the day. We are at $7! WTF is up with that? I mean we have raised less than $3,000 and our goal is $10,000 and it goes to May. I mean we can’t make that goal anymore…

And when I talk to the person at the service desk about it like my management told me, she tells me that she is to busy to even do a freakin page. Something that would take her less than thirty-seconds to do if she would bother to take her time. I mean she event told me i didn’t understand how busy she was etc, that I should do the page if I was in there. I mean I have put in over like 10+ hours to just working on March of Dimes stuff when I am off the clock and she can’t even do a page to help raise money?

I HATE people that think they can’t help save babies. They are so fake!

Honestly, I am considering why I work for K-mart, or atleast this one.

I have to say though, the Management supported me and talked to the person, but still.. thats bull.
