Taxes... TAP's office is located in donated space on the 91st floor of the Sears Tower. We arrived at 9am and proceeded to be trained to use tax software. During the course of the morning we got to meet the staff. Most of who have been in Americorps Vista or NCCC programs. Bob the founder started TAP when he was 22 in 1994 and can be safely described as a type A personality. I gather he likes analogies, baseball, fast cars and beer. No doubt I'll be describing more of TAP in the near future. From about 5 till 9pm we set up 20 laptops at a local high school and helped 50 people file tax forms. It was hectic to say the least.
