Alas, I fear they have yet to make a real Bob Ross stamp, as far as I know. Which is a shame, because they'd be happy stamps...

Nothing quite so complicated as that. All you need to be able to do is run a cash register (we’ve even customized the keyboard for everyone!) and count in and count out a cash register drawer. OK, knowing how to run a credit card terminal wouldn’t hurt, but even that is not necessary 🙂

Once you know for sure if you’ll be able to make it and are interested, please e-mail me at alley-2008@anthrocon.org and I’ll tell you how to register as staff, etc.

That doesn't sound so bad..I think I can get the time off from one of my jobs, the other will probably involve some negotiation. And at least that way I'd always have something to do :).

Unless I drive myself, the rest of my group has a room for Thursday to Monday Morning, if I understand garbled mumble correctly, I've grown unpracticed as of late. I've requested Wednesday to Monday off from the job I might have trouble getting the time off for, the second one shouldn't be so hard to deal with.

Since it inovlves cash responsibilities, do you want professional references or such? What programs do you use for inventory controll? I'm not familiar with Quicken or anything like that, but I'm good with MS Access if its anything like a database.

Yeah, I had left you off because I felt like I was dragging you into something you really didn't want to do and I felt bad about it. I think I'm over that now, though :-) Let me know how your plans work out, please.

My AC plans are still kinda up in the air...I need to ask my boss and hammer out transportation with Ryan, Jen, Ray, and that group....I think I have a place to stay if I get all that worked out...I donno.

I'll try to have a solid answer soon. (I think you didn't add me to your list in the last call for staff...but yeah...right now about a 90% chance of going)

If I were going to AC, that would be very tempting.

I salute you, but it's situations like this that make me glad I'll likely never again be even a department head thingy for a con, much less do the masochistic Con Chair thing again...
