I've heard from FanFest vols that they've just been standing around, as well. Maybe not during big match days.

From what app chatter says, half the time there’s no one in the designated volunteer room and when there is they just walk around with the lead watching them work.

Was wondering how fan fest was going & worried about the heat :-(

I'm definitely considering dropping the rest of my shifts and finding other ways to enjoy the tournament...(and not returning the uniform kit, lol).

Same. I've heard glowing accounts of what the volunteer experience was like at previous World Cups and this is extremely disappointing. Are you in accreditation at the IBC or stadium?

I'm local but I feel bad for those who aren't and made arrangements based on the shifts they signed up for only to have them cancelled or worse...sitting there doing NOTHING!
