              <text>FEMA Corps team Bayou 7 takes a break during training in Atlanta. The following story was posted in conjunction with this photo on our social media channels:";Hey ya'll this is Ben (I'm on the far left). Here is my team Bayou 7 &amp;amp;"The Junkyard Dawgs"; as we take a little downtime on our last round in the ATL. This is my story and I'm sticking to it My FEMA Corps team worked two disasters during our year-Hurricane Isaac in New Orleans and Hurricane Sandy in New York. They were two very different experiences and we had very different jobs to do in each. After Hurricane Isaac, we were doing public assistance work in a field office where everyone got to know each other and became very tight-knit. Going from there to Hurricane Sandy meant we went from a very consistent recovery ace to an all-out response sprint. We were working long days (typically 12-14 hours) plus travel time to and from lodging which could hover around 4 hours per day in the first couple of weeks. Working directly with survivors and actually going door to door to provide them disaster information was both extremely rewarding and incredibly draining. One story that sticks out to me in articular was when we met a survivor who avoided having his home flooded by a matter of feet. He couldn't understand how his home had been scared when all around him, his neighbors' homes had, in some cases, been completely destroyed. I still remember the pain in his voice. In my time with FEMA Corps, I learned how I react to high-pressure situations. I learned the dynamics of working in a Group and how to maintain some sort of cohesion in chaotic environments. One of the biggest things I learned is about how other people see the world and how different people can have very different perspectives about the same thing. I also learned the importance of time management and being able to take some time to take care of myself."</text>
