Way to cheat. Good for you that you didn't get caught. But this is part of the problem that we as volunteers had. GA people that think they can do whatever they want. GA people were using our showers as well making it impossible for us to have a nice clean shower that we worked for.
Next time you think it's cool that you got away with something think about the other people it affects.
Like the shuttle. Because you got on you took up a seat or two. That means one less seat for a volunteer or staff member. That means the longer they had to wait for the next one.
Alot of the staff had to be on site for days before the actual fest started. They used that shuttle to go to Walmart to get supplies that are bound to run out after a week on site and to get to their shifts off the grounds.
Yes you are just one person. But trust me if you thought of it then so did 100 other people. This means long lines for the people that earned it.
So, like I said. Just think the next time you are going to take advantage of something.
i deleted it because i didnt want to give away the big secret.
Its not that big a secret. You can cheat and ride the Wal-mart Shuttle back and forth if you either make a fake staff lanyard, or switch wristbands with a staff member, or just ask nice. Of course like the other person said it is really not fair to take advantage of stuff like that, especially stuff people out there for a week plus depend on.

I had to wait 3 hours for a shower because GA people were in line, I told them they were staff showers and told them where the other showers were, but they didn't care. There was no safety checking wristbands for the campsite this year. We had GA people camping in our camp site! I really didn't like how it all ran this year...

Just for reference, being GA and walking out of the back gate to walk to Walmart we were TOLD to take the shuttle, and that it was the only way to get back in that gate, otherwise we'd have to go to the main entrance. I did think it was weird that the only "shuttles" I saw said "Staff" on the back. But I thought nothing of it (first Roo). For reference, we ended up paying a local 10 bucks to give us a ride back with all our ice and goods. But still. If we were directed by security to take the shuttle back, I'm sure we weren't the only ones.

I didn't get a chance to peep the OP...but I just wanted it to be known that some people that may have gotten rides may not have known. Because I know we had thought about it, but just saw people waiting a long time so didn't bother. (Obviously by the description that's not the case with whatever chick snuck on) Had we not paid a local, we surely would have been on it, unknowingly pissing off all the staff. Many sides to every story
