You’ve worked for an NGO if….

- you’ve eaten the same thing for dinner four days in a row
- your home-cook meals end in the title ‘surprise’
- you think living with nine people in a 3 bedroom house is character building
- you’ve considered eating chicken that’s been out of the fridge for a day
- you go to the soup kitchen to volunteer and bring food back for your team
- you pinch toilet paper from the office
- your welfare supervisor tries to convince you the dole is a better idea
- you know when the supermarket marks down their bread
- you drink cask wine and suffer the two-day hangover
- you stay late in the office because its cold in the house
- you have a weekly quota for purchased coffee.
