family for all

The more I thought about the whole deal with the museum, the angrier I got. I decided to email the volunteer coordinator because I like her and thought she would be receptive to the problem I had with the workshop people. She called me about half an hour after I sent the email, and she was livid.

She thought the whole thing was stupid, and actually said, "Well, I'm going to sign up for every damn workshop they offer, and I'd just like to see them try to keep me out." She also said she'd never heard anything about a family requirement for the workshops, and if there were such a thing, she was sure the museum wouldn't mandate the definition of family. It was nice to hear a museum employee agree that the whole thing was stupid.

An hour or so after that call, the original person I spoke with this morning called to apologize, which was nice in a way. She had obviously been told to apologize by someone who had some influence on her, and I don't know if that was the volunteer coordinator or someone the volunteer coordinator contacted. She didn't offer to sign me up for the workshops, and I didn't ask because I'm not interested now. I'd be going just to make a point, and I have better things to do with 4 hours on a a Saturday.

I've already made plans to get together with some scrapbookers this weekend, so I'll get my art fix there with people I already know I like. :)
