Anyone who has accessed the space 2 or more days in the previous month will be eligible for a chore assignment.
+
Anyone who has accessed the space 2 or more times in the previous month will be eligible for a chore assignment.
−
Chores are not assigned to anyone who is a team captain, a board member, active trainer, or new member.
+
Chores are not not assigned to anyone who has already contributed their "1-2 hours/month" in the previous month. Here are just some examples of some of the ways you can contribute your time which would make you excused from being assigned a chore in a given month:
+
* Being a team lead for a space/tool
+
* Being an active member of an established team for a space/tool
+
* Being a member of the Board of Directors
+
* Being an active tool trainer
+
* Participating in a [[build day]] or an ongoing build project.
−
If a member has contributed to a [[build day]] in the past month or has spent a significant effort on a [[special lab project]], they will be exempted from chore selection. As teams develop and take on specific tasks in their area, joining a team and helping with those tasks will also exempt a member from the general chore rotation for the next month.
+
Getting involved in any of the above is a great way to have a bit more control over how you're contributing your time to the lab, and members are encouraged to get involved in a way that is meaningful to them such as joining a team of their favorite area or tool as the teams are established and grow.
−
It's possible that a chore may be assigned to a member that has already contributed substantially in the past month. In this case, the member is encouraged to speak with the chore organizer.
+
It's not always possible for us to know that you've contributed your time in another way, so if you are assigned a chore but feel you have already contributed about 1-2 hours of your time, please don't hesitate to speak with the chore organizer.
