Easy, he doesn't sleep. Or eat

Did you really need to reply to a 2-year old post?

Actually I found this with a google search, didn't think about the fact that it hasn't been commented on in who knows how long haha.

What's wrong with this picture? You NEED to volunteer? Isn't that an oxymoron?

If you get paid it may not count!

I like that the title implies that you could have too many volunteering hours.

"Man, this applicant is great -- wait... 3000 service hours? REJECTED."

You work 80 hours/week and go to school full time? How is that even possible?

I did the same for a year. Nursing home 6a-2p then 15mins down the street rehab center 3-11p. Both monday through friday, so my classes were all online. Rehab job was kinda laidback at night so I did my class work then. Result? 5 W's.

It was a fun thread to read regardless, especially with the guaranteed acceptance equation.
