The other volunteers bite you too.

And it's easy to understand, a lot of them are bored miserable people looking for an outlet and decided volunteering was the best way for them to power trip and pat themselves on the back while doing so. Or to get away form their wife/husband/kids that they hate. Def met quite a few people like that in my volunteering.

    Sad but yeah, I worked for a few years in charity and heard similar stories. I was IT so didn't have to deal with them directly, thankfully.

    The problem is the miserable people want to be in charge, and the good people don't. So the miserable people always end up in charge and drive all the good folks away, because nobody wants to work under a miserable person.
