Personally I offered to volunteer my time to do any job needed by John or the PPA from about June until now. Even if my talents are even less than 10% of those seeming recognized by others why would any group refuse almost any offers of free help?

D$D to PPA: "I offer my time to you."
a) PPA accepts: "Wait you misunderstood! Of course I meant I would work for you for pay!"
b) PPA declines: "Wait you misunderstood! I was offering *free* services!"

That maybe the "generally accepted wisdom" and even a fair perception of my "true intent" given the nature of this town.
Even taking 100% of the blame for all of the mis-communication involved in on one hand applying for an openly advertised job, while at the same time continuing to participate in and offer further volunteer services I don't feel it is a fair perception.
Generally actions speak louder than words.
But then this is DC, politics, and the internet; often perception and good bullpoop trump truth.
However perhaps the root of the truth lies in the fact that my offers of free services in support of the "cause" is not an isolated incident and too frequent to excuse as minor problems encountered by an young organization or frequently overworked people.
