MOTHER FUCKER!
this is a rant, this rant is about vagina monologues and how i am utterly confused!
A few days ago I went to the MUB to finish up everything regarding set up and such for the GST where it is being held
everything was going great I got everything I needed done and I felt good about it. Then I ask if I need to fill out some kind of form to sell
tickets. The woman says yes I do (goes to get form) comes back looking sullen, says "you need to speak to my
boss regarding money issues before I can allow you to sell your tickets." I'm like okay sure whateves thinking nothing of it
I plan a meeting. I get a call later that day from the head of the MUB saying SAGE/VMONS has MAJOR money issues and
could face a conduct hearing and cancellation of the performance. I'm like WTF!!!!!
I immediately rush in first thing today to find out what is wrong. I talk to the head of the MUB, here's the scoup...
VMONS makes lots o money and every year the programmers sign a contract, like the one I signed this year
saying that they will give all but about 10% of these profits away to our given charities. Well apparently last year
SAGE did not give that money away. Let me back up...
I found out about a month ago that we had a SAFC account, something I knew nothing about, that amazingly had 10,000 dollars in it!
HOLY SHIT, I'm thinking this is great think of all the great programming I can do and stuff, I spend some if it on the Sex Fair, and I
spend some of it helping out the UNH One Campaign to help aid Afraid and the AIDS epidemic. The girls and I are excited, we think wow we can buy new tshirts to sell at the Vmogs because we are running low on the old ones. I go out and order new t shirts (which are bitchin by the way, if you come to vmons you'll see why! ) and spend oh I dunno LOTS OF MONEY!
Okay now back from where we started. Apparently SHARPP which we typically give money to because they help our cause was unhappy with the amount given this past year. Which granted the girls from last year had no idea how much money
had been given in previous years, a considerably higher amount. I feel terrible. Also they NEVER got there money...uh oh!
I immediately send them said money and feel as though everything is fine. Except everything is not fine. SHARPP being upset
that they did not get enough money, considering the contract we signed and how we are supposed to give away tons of money
but didnt reports this to the MUB, who in turn comes to me and says that I have to give away ALL THAT 10,000 Dollars before
I can sell my tickets. Oh and I have to give it to the three said groups that were promised it last year. So I'm totally confused
because I don't honestly believe that the girls from last year would have made this kind of mistake, there just is no way.
So now I feel like an ass, and am fucked because I have to send all this money out tomorrow if I want to be able to sell tickets this
year. Oh jeez! Oh yeah and we had an outside account of money...which apparently is illegal and I have to get rid of
that asap or else guess what no production! And no one has any idea where we got all this money....neither do I, but I know that
I foolishly thinking we had more than we did spent some of it....So basically I suck.
Thats all sorry that was really long, but I feel terrible, and miserable, and I feel like I've let my group down,
when I thought I was doing so well....
I had already made all 3 quilts, and was feeling great, am getting the cast t shirts on time and early this year
and got us free tea and luna minis...here I am feeling very accomplished when in reality I guess I failed. )O:
