The center had just opened and my car was the only one in the parking lot. I entered the building to what seemed like a ghost town. I was finally met by some guy after a couple of minutes. I said I'd like to donate blood, he asked if I had an appointment, I said no, I didnt. He said I need to call in to make an appointment for donations. I said, "you dont take walk-ins"? He said appointments only. I said I'm the only person in the building I cant believe you cant squeeze me in. He said appointments only. I said, you must not be short on blood if your turning away people willing to donate, then left.

Probably due to a lack of qualified staff and volunteers. They need to arrange times so they can get a crew together.

I've traveled hundreds of miles at a time making emergency blood deliveries for the American Red Cross.

I don't do that for free.

Maybe the blood was donated, but, they still have plenty of expenses.

Quit your belly-aching.

I've heard numerous complaints about them always digging into a soldier's pockets, but, my own experience with them is they got a buddy home from Nam to see his dying mother
