Reasons: Visitor Center staffer

Friends of the Kennedy Center have many different roles (data entry, working in the store, giving tours, etc...). Occasionally I'll document the reasons why I'd be suitable for a particular role.

Reasons I would make a good Visitors Center information specialist:

  • I don't know where the bathrooms are, but I can say Mikhail Baryshnikov without spitting on you. So, take your pick.

  • Would politely suggest to people who lack imagination (I can tell by looking) to avoid Shear Madness. It's improv, people, we need good ideas shouted out.

  • For the same reason, would politely suggest people with Tourette's Syndrome avoid Shear Madness.

  • I can call our performances "off-off Broadway" with a straight face. And if the volunteers ever got paid, I'd even go "off-Broadway."
