last night. The church secretary called me yesterday and said that it was really important that I attend a meeting of directors that evening.
Now, I've been to a thousand of these things and there is one thing I knew for a fact: it wasn't going to be important because none of them ever are. But, since we are in the middle of construction and since I felt like being a team player, I decided to go.
Then SU called and told asked me if I wanted to go to the remote for dinner. Hmm. Dilemma. What to do?
I tell her, you know, I guess I really need to go to this meeting. No problem, she says, I'll meet you up at the church and we can go from there. Cool.
Then, at church, she says, hey, I want to go to the meeting. Way better cool. So I send her in my place. Knowing full well that she'll give me a blow by blow and that she'll be shaking her head wondering why anyone though the meeting was important.
While the meeting is going on, I'm out front talking to the boys. Up walks Ol' Charlie and proceeds to tell us that we aren't going to be meeting down the street at the school because they want $50,000 for rent. For a couple of hours on Sunday for 8-10 weeks.
Right.
I told the boys that if that were the case, schools should shut down and go into the business of leasing space.
After the meeting, SU is laughing, proving me right. Nothing was decided (told ya) and there was bickering (left that part out). So, no decision but there will be another meeting Sunday. And then they'll decide.
Right.
The only thing they are going to decide is that they are going to do what the pastor wants.
Which they could have done last night.
Oh, and that $50,000 rent payment?
Turns out that they want $100 an hour. Max cost: 6 hrs x $100 hr x 10 Sundays = $6,000. Max. But hey, who's counting?
