Technicalities? What the hell is this?

Bureaucracy: AWOL

Renter: Eight days to pay back rent. If you owe money, you have been contacted.

Tech: No complaints recently.
Treasurer: Nothing
Agenda:
Excess points: It is awesome to do jobs because the House needs it. Not just for the purpose of points. For the good of all!
Point technicality: Apparently there’s something in the House manual about cutting down personal point reserves to 150. Should we do this? Perhaps 400.
Notes for the purpose of future point system alterations:
–Putting a 400 point/month cap to prevent freeloading
–Merging coordinator positions to resolve laziness.
–Changing cleaning sheets
Also, instead of a lot of small changes to the point system, a massive overhaul may be looming in the future.

How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie, 1936.
///Possibly one of the most brilliant books ever written. I recommend it highly.
Control your temper. Remember, you can measure the size of a person by what makes him or her angry.
Three-fourths of the people you will ever meet are hungering and thirsting for sympathy. Give it to them, and they will love you.
Ask questions instead of giving direct orders.
The unvarnished truth is that almost all the people you meet feel themselves superior to you in some way, and a sure way to their hearts is to let them realize in some subtle way that you recognize their importance, and recognize it sincerely.
Talk about your own mistakes before criticizing the other person.
Make the other person feel important – and do it sincerely.
Everybody in the world is seeking happiness – and there is one sure way to find it. That is by controlling your thoughts. Happiness doesn’t depend on outward conditions. It depends on inner conditions.
Let us praise even the slightest improvement. That inspires the other person to keep on improving.
Let the other person do a great deal of the talking.
Whenever you go out-of-doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do; and then, without veering off direction, you will move straight to the goal. Keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding away, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire. Advice from Elbert Hubbard
If you disagree with them you may be tempted to interrupt. But don’t. It is dangerous. They won’t pay attention to you while they still have a lot of ideas of their own crying for expression. So listen
patiently and with an open mind.
