Please...

Don't make me go back to that job. I hate it. I find it mildly degrading and I'm not any good at it. Not being good at it is probably why I find it degrading. I know that this fund raising is for an excellent cause, but it's definitely not my strength to be the one making the calls for the donations.

I think this is because of how I was raised. In my family, charity work and donations are definitely encouraged, but in a much more anonymous way. We're not to advertise any good works, because good work is what we're supposed to do. It's kind of like what Chris Rock says: You don't get credit for paying child support or staying out of jail! You're supposed to take care of your kids! You're not supposed to go to jail!

So this is a learning experience, or some crap like that. If nothing else, it is definitely humbling. And I am awed by the women I work with who do this work so well.
