The whole idea of voluntary work, doing work for the sake of doing work and not being told by anyone what to do or expecting payment in return (except maybe donations as a show of support). At least for someone who has only received vocational training and never had a job, that to me sounds like the very best kind of work.

Just finished holding the second "strongest wo/man of the btu" competition, a powerlifiting competition framed for my university. Unfortunately this year (opposing to last year), no female athletes competed. But we had 2 more guys, and damn - those are beasts. As someone who's 1,70m/71kg seing somebody (calm, friendly and young student) pick up 230kg of the ground is a sight to behold. Anyway, glad it's over, that was a bit of stress in my neck. #weightlifting #powerlifting #iron #voluntarywork
