Hi there, this is your resident plastic Sith dropping by.​
"Why?" you might be tempted to ask.​
Let's look.​
Now, as some of you might know, some of the ammunition for trolls is "You have no life since you staff here" or some derivative.​
Once, a former member of the TNT staff told me after their​
resignation "When am I ever going to tell someone 'I was a TNT Op.'?"​
Well, this Sith has popped by to let you all know that he has found an answer to that question.​
You guys are familar with money, right? Bills, coins, the works.​
Das moneys
So you might also know that you kind of need it to survive/go to college/etc.​
That is why I resigned. I was applying for more work and likely would not have time each week.​
What does all this have to do with my point?​
Good question.​
Now, in my search for jobs, there were sections on applications that asked for any volunteer work.
I asked, and found out that pleasantly, the 500-odd hours I spent staffing TNT DID in fact count as volunteer work.​
Now, it may not be the same where you live or at every job. But I have found out first-hand that yes, people count staffing as an accomplishment worthy of mentioning on a job application.​
So, that's my point in a nutshell. This stuff can and will help you out in the future. It might never end up on a job application, it might end up on all of them. But there are many things you can take away from staffing. Confidence, problem-solving, and loads more.​
So that, ladies and gentlemen, is what I wanted to relay:​
You can and will come across situations where people will count staffing here as something valued.​
Thanks for reading this, and special thanks to PickYerPoison for the post-format idea/other stuff.​
