[Boatanchors] List Changes

[euramcom pages]

Hi Gangue,

Nobody likes change! Especially when we have to try something new=
 or 
different!

NOBODY LIKES CHANGE (caps and raising voice a level)

BUT the fact remains the deed is done, and it would appear it HAD=
 to 
be done and done in a hurry from Duane's latest posting. Me? I'm=
 a 
major lurker, with an occasional foray into the arena, but it=
 gets me 
hard when the good guys like Duane who do the work, get the=
 hassle 
from those who would say

"Sorry, I'm too busy to take that on"

If they are asked to:-

help
contribute time
contribute effort
give out info
actually do something to benefit the (insert whatever) as a=
 whole.

I see this almost daily in the organisations I belong to, The=
 same 
six or seven people do all or most of the work, and lots of=
 others 
sit on the bench and talk it up a lot. And, I notice for example=
 that 
the Chairman of one of my County (UK) Caravanning Groups is also=
 on 
the board of Age Concern Charity for his area, serves on the 
Children's Advisory Panel (looking after and protecting minors=
 and 
delinquency) and also is an Elder in his local Church. So often=
 if 
you want a job done, you should ask a busy person.

Soapbox mode ending:- Live a little guys, try the new structure,=
 sure 
you may find some things don't work any more, BUT DELVE a bit and=
 I'm 
sure you'll find some things that you couldn't do before that you=
 
always wanted to do!

"You only get out of anything what you put in!"

"Don't shoot the pianist, he's doing his best!"

Regards (sorry Duane if this is a bit draggy onny)
