I joined the military, I know all about volunteer work.  My LPO volunteered me to haul boxes around all day on Monday, and my DIVO volunteered me to brief the new one star when he came to visit our squadron.  

Seriously though, I can't wait to check aboard my ship in May.  They participate in many community relations events during port calls.  It sounds like alot of fun getting to visit the different countries, meet the people (not the usual people you find pierside), and lend a hand as well.  Plus it is actual volunteer work, which makes all the difference in the world  tounge.gif

My brother did that too, he answered telephones, filed reports, and they even lent him a police car once to go drive and get food for the station. Then someone in the Union found out he was working for free, so they wanted to make his position a paying job, but the police departments didn't want to pay him and told him to get out. lol

Yea isn't that a great system. smile.gif

Sometimes these kids can get pretty disciplined by the cops too, but I guess it's all for their own good.

Well I'm doing it because I am trying to become a cop and volunteering for them helps. I"ve passed the physical and written test and now waiting for my interview.

Compton isn't all that bad, I go to school in Long Beach at Poly HS which is the same type of neighborhood. Sure, there are homeless drug users in the park next to the school, gang members out in front, and several undercover cops on campus, but there's not much crime, other than drug use. And no, Snoop Dogg is not really a Poly alum, he dropped out. Cameron Diaz however is.

As for volunteer work, I figure I'll try to help out a local hospital. Good free experience if you want to be a doctor.

Ive completed 37of my 40 hour required high school community service, most of that with my RCAC squdrn. I'm primarily driven by money, almost to the point of it being some kind of religion, so helping people usually dosen't have the same effect on me as it does most people. However it does effect me in some way when I stand outside a beer store with a tray of poppies and a WWII vet comes up and starts telling me about the war. I guess it brings back memories for them or somthing when they see a teenager in uniform

I recomend helping at your local VFW hall or your countries equivalent, I have a few friends at the local hall. And it's the best place in the world for war stories. Also a great place for me to put my BBQ skills to work smile.gif Cooking and eating biggrin.gif

Right. That's as "voluntary" as it can only be in the army. But I had nice time when we were collecting money for the vets. One of the first houses I visited had a pretty female occupant and I ended up spending my whole collection trip drinking coffee with her. Needless to say I didn't manage to gather much money, but I don't mind.

Well, considering that my marital status wasn't exactly single, I have to refrain from answering to that question. tounge.gif
