43. And this is not even at the state level.


I think you can imagine how useless are most of these meetings. I did tell the incoming president that I wasn’t going to guarantee my presence at meetings. Fortunately they only have two business meetings a year, plus an annual long drawn out once and that goes on and on forever. The luncheon’s were nice in the years they were held at a country club, but lately they’ve been held at a not so great location.


I didn’t resign from a paid job in order to sit through endless meetings in my retirement. I believe that ZOOM has lessened the intensity of mindless drivel produced in some meetings.
With all these negatives you posted, why in the world did you accept?
