How not to be a good Rotarian / John R. Callum
Description: page [58] In: Rotary Club of Manila. The Rotary Balita No. 749 to 774Summary: Skip evey meeting. Be a poder, although…Complication read you must average not less Scorpa Committee Chairmanship and then let your Commits wither on the wine for lack of activity and leadership. Criticize your officers just as if they were being paid to further the interests of the Club Com- lain about the programs, the service, the food, without offering constructive remedies. Don't bother about getting new members; let the Secretary do it. Wait until the last minute to get your ticket for an outing or ladies night, and if they are all sold, squawk to high heaven. Don't pay your dues promptly, and if you get a memo from the Secretary, get offended and say you have been dunned. Agree to everything proposed at a meeting, then disagree with it outside. At a meeting it is a slap on the back and a warm handshake to Bill, or Frank or Tom and then next day meet them on the street and don't recognize them. Always be late arriving, but be the first man out. Don't ever volunteer for some special assignment, but when other Rotarians roll up their sleeves, whisper around knowingly that the Club is being run by a clique. Don't sign your luncheon card so your Secretary will have to go to a lot of trouble to give you credit for attending the meeting. Carry on a loud conversation if you are not particularly interested in the program or speaker. Never visit a sick member; don't even send him a cheer-up card. Don't stand in attention, or face the flag during the national anthem. When everything else fails, cuss the Secretary.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Barcode | |
