Tekst Storyboardowy

  • I am a member of a community organization that is all volunteer. We meet regularly, in various locations, but once a month we have a "business meeting" that follows Robert's Rules of Order, during which time we discuss dissemination of funds, upcoming events, and resource allocation. The business meeting takes place on the same day, at the same time, in the same location each month. There are 'officers' who have made commitments to attend for one year, and then other members are welcome to attend and be a part of the discussion and decisions at anytime; but it is crucial the officers show up, as we maintain records and continuity and can have the final vote on decisions.
  • During one monthly meeting, back in the fall, we had it on the agenda to discuss holiday parties: how to raise the funds, how to organize them and how to spread the word about them. I worked harder than usual to send reminders via text, make announcements at regular meetings about the importance of the upcoming business meeting, and write reminders on community boards. As often happens, I had to get someone to cover my shift, as our business meeting takes place on a night that is often busy at my job. I invested extra personal time and resources in preparation of the 'holiday planning' business meeting. When I showed up, there were four people there. One of them said he could only stay for a few minutes, because he needed to take his wife to dinner. I. Lost. My. Cool. I can feel myself getting worked up even as I write this.
  • I am not proud of my reaction. It was immature and petty, two things I work very hard to not be, whether at work while I'm setting the example for teenagers, or while engaged in community activities, where the goal is to be helpful and have fun. My reaction was that of a toddler. I loudly gathered my things, spewing negativity towards the few members who had shown up, and therefore deserved my anger the absolute least, and stormed out, stating I would no longer be helping the group. I apologized within the week, as humble pie is best served warm. To be honest, though, I finish my officer commitment to that group this month, and I have decided to move on to another group that has better organization and participation. I am doing so "the right way," though, passing my materials and responsibilities to the next person in a thorough and respectful way...which almost wasn't the case, had I let my emotions continue to cloud my intellect and judgment.
