4/11/08 Volunteer Board

Is it smart
to be on a volunteer board?
Or is it very dumb?

It's like a job
only without any money.
Which kind of flies in the face
of the reward system
we've got in place
that makes everybody do stuff
they wouldn't otherwise do.

But the fact that
there are volunteer boards
means that people still do stuff
because it is meaningful.

Beyond money.
Maybe not smart.
But definitely reassuring.
