I just had the most enjoyable CIP project yesterday. The best part of it was not that I got more hours than I actually stayed for, it was that all I had to do was to walk around while watching other people do their CIP. That is right. They do the door to door visits and I get the hours for making sure they do not get lost or kidnapped or thrown down the building by raging residents.
I was lucky enough to get a group that only needed to do 3 blocks. The first one was awfully small, with only four floors, so we finished that in no time. Then we moved on to the next two blocks which was each twelve floors high, and twice as wide as the first one. Being smart little secondary two students, my group broke themselves up into 2 groups and each took half the block. The groups then broke up into smaller groups, so it was really efficient. Of course I could no longer see all of them at the same time, so after I bit of tagging along with random groups and walking around looking like I have something to do, I decided to just wait below the block. That way, I can see them if they tried to sneak off or catch them if they get thrown of the building by raging residents! Talk about killing two birds with one stone!
The students were not as annoying as I expected, though they make an awful lot of noise when walking along. Half of them were actually quite enthusiastic about the project, which was surprising. I heard that some of the other groups actually had students who refused to do anything.
Oh yea, this year, I did not take part in Earth Hour. My mother and sister both agreed that they wanted to watch the television, so I got outvoted. Oh well, it is not like me turning off the lights is actually going to help save the planet. Right? Right?
