Comment on A heart-warming story
Aeao@lemmy.world 1 day agoI understand your dismay. Believe me I’m not saying the behavior is right. I’m just describing what is.
You nailed it. They will no call no show to appointments to try out wedding cake samples. Giving blood isn’t even fun. They only made the appointment because they didn’t want to look selfish for the blood drive people.

You’ve reminded me some years ago I donated at a pop up clinic, and it was across the street from a carnival that came to town. They went and got a bunch of ride and games tickets and gave them to blood donors. Big sign over at the carnival, and the clinic was packed.
That’s a random way to get people in, but it worked, and it was fun. Now if only they could take the donation while people wait in line for a ride haha.
