Leaving it in the hands of 1 monumental idiot, 1 decent individual, 1 blow with the wind type, 1 with heart in the right place, mind in another entirely, and a management agent who needs more staff.

And I've not felt this good about something in a LONG time.

Having been there and done that as Condo Association Prez I commend your decision to curtail the madness. I believe the bulk of ALL HOA are made up of the same types. I could tell you about "Peter" for hours but I won't. Suffice it to say he was a dead ringer for Squidward except he played the violin, not the clarinet. The resemblance in appearance and character was remarkable. I am SOOOO happy to have not heard his voice in years now. shocked

Mike,
Does that mean you're going to recall the tank you sent to protect me?

It was either go now, or seriously go postal.

You can have the tank, Grampster.

I can appreciate your situation. I am an officer of one club and on the board of another. Sometimes it is a struggle to want to even go to a meeting.

Other times it can be rewarding.

Mike, I couldn't help but look up what you posted when you resigned from the HOA board in 2006.

Leaving it in the hands of 1 monumental idiot, 1 decent individual, 1 blow with the wind type, 1 with heart in the right place, mind in another entirely, and a management agent who needs more staff.

And I've not felt this good about something in a LONG time.

Heh... Cute...

I'd forgotten exactly when I resigned. Thanks for bringing this up.

Of all the people I mentioned back then, only the monumental idiot is still around, only he's no longer a board member, he's the finance guy for the association. We pay him a small salary so he's now an employee and can't serve on the board.

I'm not clear on what's going on here.  Help?

Why would you repost a 14 year old post as if it just happened?  I have memory lapses too, but that's what my kids are for... "No, Pop, that happened in Idaho Springs, not Steamboat Springs."

Sorry about the confusion.  I tried to quote from an old thread and never went back to the current thread.

Yep, zombie thread. I didn't realize that I had resigned 14 years ago. I thought it was after my father had passed.

OK, first vent...

President of the HOA is a nice guy, but a talker.

We had our community annual meeting on Sunday, via Zoom. Not all that well attended, as you can imagine, but still enough to get the quorum we needed.

Well, in talking through some of the issues in the community, the President just talked... and talked... and *expletive deleted*ing TALKED. And merged from one topic right into the next. I had to yell at him twice to tell him that he needed to open the floor for discussion before he tried to call the question to a vote.

Two other times I had to yell at him so that I could actually add my input because he and another guy on the board opened a two-way dialog and again tried to steamroller right past everyone else.

Nope. You don't get to do that with me on the board, gents. Not going to happen.
