Something to Notice— The duties: Breakfast, Lunch Prep, Lunch Clean, and Dinner Clean are each primarily about washing dishes. These make a total of 12 shifts each day. That is almost half the total work shifts. Clearly dishes are a big deal. When you realize that there are 9 days of work shifts, that is a total of 96 shifts that involved dish washing..... and we are a camp of about 90 people. What if we each took one of these shifts so that during the entire Burn we only need to be concerned about somebody else's dish for a single 2 hour period. That's what I call Heaven on earth.
