[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't always blame the mom who sends out the sign-up.  You don't always know what is being asked of the team coordinator by multiple parents.  I am the coordinator for my kid's team.  Believe me, I have better things to do than make a snack sign up genius.  But then I get questions from other parents about who is bringing the snacks that week.  They want them.  So rather than deal with drama I fulfill my duty since I volunteered for this and I make a snack schedule.  So don't call me an idiot, thank me for volunteering and handling all the other annoying tasks everyone wants and "thinks would be nice" (collecting for a coach gift, end of year parties, etc) but doesn't step up to do.[/quote]

No, you can make a stand against stupidity. You may not be an idiot but you are complicit. "Just following orders", not when the orders are unjust. [/quote]

Snacks are "unjust"?!?!  Lol.  Who sounds like an idiot, taking things too far.
It's what the majority wants.  What would be unjust is to volunteer to coordinate things for the team and then once in that role, to start calling the shots and making unilateral decisions that are not what the team wants.  Yes, I could "step down" and refuse to do snacks, but it's really not that serious.  If the team wants snacks, who cares.  Each parent can decide whether or not they want to bring cookies, just oranges, or not sign up at all.  Hey, there's a thought, if you don't like it, don't sign up to bring any.  If no one signs up, no more snacks.  Or snacks only on weeks that the parents who care about it decide to bring them.[/quote]
