  • "But I just wanted to say hiiii"

    Whined the clueless dude that crashed our meeting and required our Guard to escort him out of our meeting space.

    Background:
    I am an officer at a non profit veteran's organization. There is the men's group and the women's group. While both are part of the overall umbrella of (organization), the two are and act independently of each other. The building we meet at has a layout of one large function room with a bar and tables and chairs, etc. Because of this, during meeting nights, a "wall" of curtains is pulled across turning the one room into two smaller rooms for privacy. Its not the best solution, but until the building is fully renovated, we have to live with it.

    So our meeting was going well and one of our members was in mid-sentence, when a man I personally did not recognize, stormed in between the curtains with a jolly "HELLO!!!!!" before our President asked the Guard to get him out.

    He stood there waving hello at everyone and tried to make conversation. Finally the bar manager had to assist our Guard to get him out of the meeting space. We commenced our meeting and when we were finished, some of the patrons told us what happened on the other side of the curtain when we were finishing up.

    Apparently this guy is a new member of the men's group and had joined last week. He was uh, overly enthused about being part of the organization. Not drunk (surprisingly), and was told by several patrons, the bartender, and the bar manager to not disturb us.

    When told off, he went all Cartman a la "Screw you guys, I'm going home". All I want to know is who the frig did he think he was thinking it was ok to interrupt a meeting like that? Did he think we were just having tea and not going over official business? *shakes head*

    I think we all know here, that in the minds of such speshul snowflakes the universe revolves around them, so of course you'd be overjoyed to drop whatever you were doing to adore him. After all, it couldn't possibly be more important than him.

        Actually, yes, I bet that's exactly what he thought.

          Well, duh. Your organization dropped everything to bring him in, so obviously you all NEED him and love him and worship the ground he walks on
