I love whoever made this list in the manual. It is exactly how I would make a list for a manual.
The first thing I realized is how interesting it is that the Operations department is so crucial to the actual day of the event, which means the spring semester is jammed with preparation between weeks 2-11, only to then watch everything come to fruition. It will be essential that I make lists and organize every single thing in my life this semester, or else the day-of I will definitely fall apart. For any job, but for this one especially, proper preparation is key.
I am going to love being the boss of the registration table. Having people come from all over the country/world/wherever and meet me first is going to be exciting and gratifying. I have a feeling it will be similar to being an Orientation Leader for the university. I will love every second of updating my 500000 lists (which I am going to download to my kindle/tablet thingy so I can keep track of them and update on the go), being the person to receive confirmations from the attendees, bossing around a few volunteers, and even creating name badges and registration packets.
Things I did not realize I'd be in charge of: anything having to do with Indiegogo (though in hindsight that makes perfect sense), the video race (also makes perfect sense), design things on the website
Things I always knew I would do this semester: not sleep.
So excited that you're excited! We should meet asap to talk about badges and online purchasing!
ReplyDeleteYes! I'd like to get a head start. I'm going to email you today and set up a meeting.
