While you can't really get angry at them, they can't get angry at you.
They have to be real careful and friendly with volunteers since they can't discipline or be real tough with them since volunteers can just walk away pretty much anytime. I suspect volunteers are a major component of getting things done at their organization and they don't want to intentionally abuse them.
As a volunteer, you can really be frank, don't have to mince words, and lay it out what you don't like and why with the decisionmakers. They have everything to lose. As an ocassional coordinator of volunteers and one myself, I wish more people would share their frustration and suggestions. Don't worry about upsetting them. If after that, they can't work with you, find another volunteer opportunity with another worthy organization.
