It’s a puzzlement:

jennlkwould this be considered TimeFail or Competency Being Its Own Punishment?
So, I’d been sortof planning on making it to the Annual Picnic this year. It’s been at least a decade since I’ve been, mostly due to TimeFail of various (often competency related) issues. I’d even put in a request for that week off, and had gotten provisional approval. And then the Deputy Treasurer resigned, effective yesterday. There goes that “week off”.
Treasurer had made family plans for that week, as that was basically the only week that neither of her kids had training/work/sportscamp *and* her husband could get off. But that’s the week after summer tax bills hit mailboxes, and people will be coming in to pay them. The OfficeManager can take tax payments, but really doesn’t like to. So somebody has to cover, and as the newbie, that would be me. Unless they can find somebody to hire on as Deputy Treasurer in the next week and a half.
