I has minions - more minions. Lots of minions.
Let me tell you about my marvelous minions.
I have MedFair Minions - people who run errands, deal with delegated tasks, haul heavy items, help others, fill in volunteer gaps, and they do it all on my command just because they want to. They receive no pay except the remote possibility there will still be Scottish Eggs. This year, I will need Ice Dragon Minions - people to drive golf carts delivering ice to all the vendors. I don't have those Minions yet, but I am sure I will have them soon. MedFair is April 1, 2, 3. Now is your chance to join my Minion Ranks.
I have Oklahoma Steampunk Exposition Minions. Mostly, these minions are personal ones to help with the absinth and booth, but some are also for helping with the Dealer's Room. These are my newest Minions, and again, they do this for fun, not funds.
Then I have my best beloved Green Room Minions. These dear people keep the ice chests filled with fresh ice, bleed off the melt, re-stock the ice chests with beverages, run bottles of water out to the guests to keep them hydrated, refill the crock pots with food, bus the Green Room tables, take out the trash, help find missing guests, and will deliver food to starving, busy guests.
I love each and every one of my Minions.
And, as many as I have, I can always use more Minions, so if you're interested in being an Ice Dragon, an occupant of the Southern Information Booth or the Fair Office, a deliverer of brochures and water to the Southern Information Booth, a runner of errands, an eagle eye for Vendor addresses, the person sent to fix problems, a refiller of ice chests and crockpots, a food delivery person, or any of a number of other essential positions, your help is welcomed. I feed my Minions and let them play when they aren't tapped for hard labor.
The work can be hard, but the rewards are tasty.
