You Have Got To Be Freaking Kidding Me
So, I called the 3 Day Walk for cancer of Tampa.
I wanted to support the cause, I love long walks or runs sometimes, nothing wrong, right? Well.
I come to find out that in order to participate as an individual walker, I must raise over two thousand cojones, and if i am part of a team, then more cash must be shelled out.
What the hell are they thinking?!!!
From a business prospective, the lower you set that goal, the more people that will be able to participate or be willing to donate, it is a simple game of numbers, but the geniuses in charge of the event figure their own conclusion.
I was really wanting to walk and help with some cash, but I can not go on to steal money from people, to feed the cancer pimps.
I really got pissed about this. Here I am saying to myself:
"Hmmm, maybe I can donate some 200 bucks and then go have fun walking" Hell no, I gots to get the 2200 bucks to even come close!!!
That is it for me with the bastards running these shows, if people in desperate need of help are not getting any, they can thank their event coordinators.
By the way, if you want to know how to raise money, they got it all covered with books, videos and training.
On the other hand if any of you righteousmongers thinks that I am being unreasonable, go ahead and start the direct deposit allotments to my ripoffgoodpeople account in Niger.
PS or BS: I don't want to hear about how much is admin costs and this and that.
