Overworked, and spread too thin.

Membership (325 plus) has very short attention spans and are always anxious to get the meetings over. Followup questions are discouraged, not by the training committees, but by the membership. That's why I didn't ask my thirty second timeout question at the meeting. My question would not be appreciated by the membership. Most guys just want to leave and get home to watch football. It hasn't always been that way. I blame it on the fact that we got too big, too fast.

Executive committee, secretary/treasurer, interpreters, and assigner, all do outstanding jobs. The membership can be underwhelming. Some are more interested in texting, and checking their email, than in paying close attention to the presentations.
