HOW TO KILL YOUR ORGANIZATION
Author unknown
1. Don't attend meetings, but if you do, arrive late then be sure to leave the meeting before it is over.
2. If the weather doesn't suit you, don't think of coming.
3. Never have anything to say at the meeting - wait until you get outside.
4. When at the meeting, vote to do everything, then go home and do nothing.
5. The next day, find fault with the officers and other members.
6. Never accept an office. It is much easier to criticize than to do things.
7. Be sure to sit in the back so you can talk things over with another member. Nobody will notice even if they can't hear the program.
8. Get all the organization will give but give nothing in return.
9. If asked to help, always say you are too busy and don't have time.
10. Never ask anyone to join the organization.
11. Never read anything pertaining to the organization. You might find out too much.
12. If appointed to a committee, never give any time to the committee. Let the chairman do it all.
13. Don't do anymore than you have to, and, when others willingly and unselfishly use their ability to help the
good cause along, then complain that the organization is run by a clique.
14. Hold back your dues or don’t pay them at all
15. If there are finances to pay, just ignore them.
16. After the organization has died and the "old timers" are at the post-funeral coffee break, express wonderment
at why and how the organization folded and then blame everyone else.
