Well Judy has made the newsletter late for the last time. After several very good newsletters Amanda had enough! Hope there is someone out there that likes being fussed at and demanded to do something their way to take over the newsletter! It is a big job that no one appreciates unless you have walked in their shoes. ;) Until someone steps up and changes NARBC, this will happen over and over! There is a lot of good people with lot of talent out there that would do a great job, but do not want to put up with all the crap!
After much thought and reflection, I am resigning effective immediately, 1 Jul 09, as the newsletter editor.
Instead of looking forward to using my creative abilities, I am dreading having to continually harass officers, board members, and committee chairs to send me their articles for the newsletter.
Please understand that this has been a long thought out decision and I must do what is right for me and my family.

You will be missed Amanda!
And how exactly is this Judy's fault? Seems to me Amanda had issues with several people... officers, board members, and committee chairs are mentioned... I'm just sayin'...

ReplyDeleteIt is mostly Judy's fault because she consistently dragged around getting in her Presidents report and held up the newsletter as much as a month and a half at times. We owe our members more than that. They expect their newsletter on time. I think you can relate to that Janet. Yes other board members were guilty of being late but Judy is the bigest offender. It wasn't just when Amanda did the newsletter, It was just about the whole couple of years I did the newsletter!
You know as well as I do how frustrating it is when you are trying to get the newsletter out on time and others are holding things up! I think she felt her efforts were better spent on people whe actually appreciated it.
Sorry that's how I feel! ;)
