Today the new corps are no longer being created. And there were more corps merging with another corps who was close by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyDad Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 All of a sudden everyone is talking in parables and anecdotes. I love it! I’m inspired to say that folks giving their good money to bad stewards is like … casting pearls before swine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chinese restaurant responded to that review by telling that customer not to ever come back and that person doesn't have a right to be seated in that restaurant. Obviously, I wouldn't want a non-profit organization to respond in this way, but the lesson is, the customer may not always be right. Let's not sugarcoat things here. It didn't need to be public. It seems to me you wanted it public because of the apparent slight you felt by the answer you were given, and therefore, felt it important that others who agree with you should know about. i felt it needed public because an organization in crisis shouldn't be that way, especially when trying to get funds to keep it alive. quite frnkly i had many exchanges with he who pleaded and even at his most repugnant, he was never like that. i saw that same article. i thought of this too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
