I am in the process of writing sponsorship offer letters to financial companies on behalf of the Austin Health 2007 Graduation Dinner Commitee, in the hope that these financial companies will sponsor us good money so that we can afford a luxurious yet subsidized graduation dinner for our bunch of graduating medical students at the end of this year.And I am struggling.
I have never been a shoe polisher!!
Man, I feel like I want to puke having to do this. Lavishing praise and adornment to companies which I have absolutely no clue about. Words like 'well-established', 'leading company in Australia' etc etc... Feels like I am outright lying....even though these companies may very well be well established and leading companies in Australia....
Then again....hm....what harm can it be if I make others feel good about themselves and yet get the money off them. Not like they're losing out on anything right? They'll still get good exposure amongst us medical graduates...
BUt....sigh... I am fearing for the worst. Is this only a preview of what's yet to come? The endless shoe-polishing in order to get specific gains?
