I'm volunteering at an ER right now but I am not enjoying it or getting much out of it. Mostly I stand around trying to look helpful while everyone does their job around me. It's kind of demoralizing.
I've put in about 40 hrs there so far but I'm wondering if I should try and find a different position or stick it out? I guess I'm hoping that after seeing me stand around idly week after week that at some point they will get used to me and ask me to do something.
Anyone else have any similar experience? Is this how most volunteer positions are in hospitals or do some of you actually get to see/do cool things?
