okay, so I've been really slacking in the con report area. since my last post... well, ACen was ACen, and Colossalcon was Tornadocon Colossalcon. I had a blast at both, despite the little minor irritations i.e. the room bill at ACen >.>so now this leads us to Ikasucon. I have a room.... with 3 people, including myself. we're coming in Thursday ( Read more... )

I want to rant about the headaches I've had with Ikasu reg (no blame on my department head, she was finishing a degree, but trying to get the issues I've had resolved feel like me banging my head into a wall, as if what I'm saying is being dismissed as paranoia, and the issue I'm seeing isn't real. Excuse me, I'm perfectly good at putting 2+2 together when multiple people contact me on having the same issue) but getting into details wouldn't be proper... or something. I also don't see much enthusiasm for the con from staff. At least not upper staff. Dusty and the cosplay people are excluded from that grouping though.

Fireworks on Saturday night during Ikasu! Three Rivers Festival! I'm totally getting funnel cake from food alley at one point. =D I'll probably be Mei and Nami.

Boss was trying to figure out the schedule to get me the days off, working on it for a loooong time one day with help from another management person, asking me when I have to use my remaining vacation time before I lose it, etc. FINALLY they worked something out, very proud of themselves, since things are tight with the boss's own vacation time. "...but my thing is in JULY."

They nearly collapsed with laughter and kicking themselves. XDDD There was a reason I gave her a FLYER with the dates so I couldn't screw up my request, and she STILL managed to have a mix up! Funnier than the time she forgot how to ring up lotto sales.

Hey, if you need another staffer for reg, I could probably do it again. XD Granted it's been a couple years since the last time I was on reg instead of video staff, but if you need the help~

Jessie hasn't said anything about wanting/needing more staff, but at the same time I have staff from last year asking about staffing again too. Waiting for her to say stuff about it. =/ I say more help the better. But for now I'm manning the emails for reg and there are times I DREAD checking it, and other times I'm hopeful that may, just MAYBE, I'll get a response from someone going, "Oh, yeah, that IS an issue! Let me go and fix that!" or even an "I'll look into it" acknowledgement.

Silence sucks. -_-#

(Oops, did I start going into a rant. Sorry.)

Just let me know! I don't think I'll be getting in super early on Friday so I doubt I can do reg then, but we shall see~ (lol I'm all about getting a free badge and helping the con. I was going to do panels but idk anymore... XD)

No worries about the rant, yo!
