Sorry, I volunteer at Iowa City VA, 4 weeks ago in preparing welcome kits, ran out of puzzle books for kit. 2 weeks ago office out of shipping tape. To date, neither replenished! Stick the fork in my butt, done! Ordered 70x puzzle books, & 1/2 dozen shipping tape, will be a donation!
Likely will piss people off, but their response, pathetic! Screw it, don’t care, I see the big picture, & will adapt!
I have disposable income, willing to push for a good cause!

Good on you for taking initiative!!!

Something that they should teach in school, someplace, is that "amateurs study tactics; professionals study logistics."  Having spent 23 years as a Naval Aviator I learned the necessity of "attention to detail."  Having spend over a decade in working in a job associated with the medical profession (malpractice defense lawyer) more than one bad result was caused by inattention to detail.

So has more than one bad result in the courtroom.

If you want to make an impression give your collogues one sock for Christmas.  When they ask what it's for tell them it's where they put their s**t so it's all together in one place.  Or maybe this really wouldn't be such a Good Idea.  It's a tempting one, though.  ;)

In any event, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year (early on that last one).  You done good; enjoy the Holiday!!!!  :)

I don’t need/want the $600 stimulus! All will go to local charities! Screw it, don’t care how organizations accept me, 1/3 locked in, 2/3rds open, totally behind supporting local. Can push 100% to one organization, but won’t! Involved with multiple organizations, won’t lock in, keep options open.

I will use my $600 to stimulate the LGS economy by buying 50 rounds of cowboy ammo.  That $600 should just about cover it.

Tried to donate to a local crisis center/food bank, they were in total lockdown, couldn’t even enter the building. So all $600 going to American Legion.
