I have to confess that I am sat here absolutely steaming with frustration and not a little bit of anger, and I can blame no one because it’s my own fault. Of course, it is all about committees.
Today, yet another one has gone wrong form me. This is a hard annoying lesson that I have I think now learned. Actually it is one of two rules; 1. Do not put me in charge of people (a different story that I won’t go in to today) 2. You might be interested in something, and join a club or in some other way become involved. But, whatever you do, do not under any circumstances join the committee. Because, come on, admit it, yes I do not do well in committees.
I am not going to go in to detail, or name people – entirely not appropriate, but what I have done recently is acted in what I thought was the best interest only for it to be pointed out to me that I have forgotten something crucial (which I had). Stupidity and embarrasssment on my part – hence the title of today’s piece, that, or rather lack of it! Damned annoying.
I very nearly accused somebody of being immature when they did something which I thought was a bit petty, only to remember I had done something very similar about three years ago.
See, I want to be involved, but of all of the committees I have joined, something somewhere has gone wrong. By all means join the club or society or whatever. But do not, ever under any circumstances join the committee. I really, really do need to listen to myself in this respect.
