What to do

Tweet

I am the accessibility co-coordinator of an event in two weeks. My main problem is not with my other co-coordinator (she's awesome) but with certain members of the event organizing committee. I thought I was hired to arrange transit for people who are in wheelchairs and everyone else too because they opted to have the event in a place with no Masstransit at all. This, in my opinion, was not a smart decision but they did it anyway over my objection. Now, they're saying that since I'm the only wheelchair user coming to the event they don't want to pay for a van for me. I'm sorry, but I thought it was my job and I made the arrangements as I was told to do. I can't back out on the guy now. He already agreed to give us a discount. That's a bad business practice. So now, my co-coordinators say that she got the money for the van from someone else and would I please come to the weekend and help her out with access issues. Part of me is inclined to say, "Screw this. I'm done!", but I hate the idea that some unregistered person will show up and need help. What do I do?
