This may be one of those rare occasions when I wish I was out of church work and back into the business world. I’m biting my tongue today because something was royally screwed up and it’s going to cost the church some cash.
Let’s just say, I miss not being able to fire people. A person who is volunteering may be completely incompetent and lazy but there isn’t much you can do about it. They don’t show up to do work that they said they would do… can’t do squat about it. They do a bad job. Not much ramifications. They say they are with you, but when they aren’t there are no consequences.
Let’s just say… this is a frustration of working with people who in a round about way you work for. It’s not worth getting out of what I do… it’s just a general frustration that you can’t look at some people who are not doing their jobs and quote Donald Trump, “You’re fired!”
