Working for the Senator, I take a lot of phone calls from constituents who are outraged by this bill or that bill or by something else they heard. Although being yelled at on the phone for 8 hours can be challenging at times it is a nice break from the apathy that I find myself surrounded with at other times.
Many of my classmates don't follow anything political. This isn't to say that all classmates are apathetic, many are very active in current events, but it is often frustrating to be with people who don't know what I am talking about when I mention something that I read in the newspaper that day.
It is a nice relief to hear from people who follow the news and are concerned about the policies coming out of Washington, even if they don't always have all the facts.
