I recently volunteered at my church and am on principle a little upset that they charge the volunteers one dollar for coffee. Mind you it is one dollar for all day coffee, but we don't work all day and work in shifts. I figure that this charge sets volunteers apart. We are not part of the organization, as we get charged for something that normally volunteers in any other organization get freely. I think it is petty.
As I was talkign to folks last night at a meeting, I began to think about the # of hours that I put in to volunteer at the church or through church events.
I wonder if folks have taken the time to add yours up, what would it look like
