6.5 reasons to volunteer as an OPSA rugby parking volunteer
Saturday was my first ever appearance as a rugby parking volunteer, standing in for my other half who was unavoidably detained on a drinking - sorry - business trip. Exhausted by 9 days of single parenthood, I requested a totally no-brain job. This consisted of collecting the money, handing drivers a map and saying in what I hoped was an authoritative voice 'Please note we close at 7pm SHARP'. Having managed this without a hitch for 90 minutes I can now say with confidence that helping with rugby parking has a number of benefits - some rather unexpected:
- you get to chat to
lots of nice
- you get to banter with lots of handsome young Welshmen (who make up a high percentage of the crowd at any match)
- you get time to think in the gaps between chatting and cars arriving
- everyone is very nice to you as they are so grateful to have arrived at the right place
- you get to to do what those blokes on cross-channel ferries do to you, such as pointing imperiously to very small parking spaces and suddenly holding up your hand for them to do an emergency stop
- you wear a fluorescent tabard
- you get a very nice warm feeling raising money for the school
- ... and you get a nice email thanking you afterwards.
So if you've been hestitating, give it a go!
