All the other volunteers were hugely friendly and up for a laugh. Making friends in the staff campsite was one of the best parts of the whole thing - everyone is lovely and like minded.
The shift managers were also lovely and always looked like they were doing their best despite whatever the festival tried to throw at them, shift patterns were all reasonable and fairly worked out.
Working in the safe mates tent in particular was rewarding because we could have more direct interaction with festival goers.
