Job Week 2010

This blog was posted by Akela Pre-Job Week Briefing 13th March 2010 After 2 weeks of preparations, Job Week has finally arrived! The cubs met today at 7.30 am for a final briefing before they descend on the public to ask for jobs. Akela started by going through the Do's and Don'ts of Job Week, emphasising the need for politeness at all times. Some of the cubs were asked to come forward to show how they would ask for jobs. Mitchell did a particularly funny demonstration of how this should be done, to the laughter of all. As in the past, the Sixers put up 2 role-plays - one a positive one, and the other one, negative. The negative act got a rupturous reaction from the cubs as the Sixers exaggerated all the undesirable behaviours, like demanding for a job, bullying the job giver and acting in a most abominable manner. It was heartening to see so many parents in the Kids Zone, ready to send their kids to the starting locations once the briefing ended. All the cubs looked as though they couldn't wait to start Job Week, and at 8.15 am, they were all dismissed, everyone excited to land their first job. Targets for the cubs are: New cubs $40 P4 cubs $50 P5 cubs $60 P6 cubs $70 Sixers $100 Special Awards (Leather woggle): Bronze $150 Silver $200 Gold $600 There will be an award for the Top 3 Earners, and a special award for Top Earner (New Scout). Latest News : As of Sunday (14th March 2010), 10 cubs had asked for additional Job Week cards, that is, they have done 40 jobs! *******************************************************************
