I'm trying to set up picture day for January 13th, the company told me they can do 1 team every 15 minutes. That's almost 10 hours to get all of the teams we have done. That's insane for pictures.

15 minutes seems like a long time to take a few group pictures but what do I know. If they were taking individual photos 15 minutes would be fast.

Individual and team. I talked to the guy again, he said 2 teams every 15 minutes. That's a lot better. I wasn't sitting there for 10 hours.

Yep 10 hours could be rather painful 5 hours isn’t exactly fun but it is more manageable.

Give them the list and let them take care of it.

15 minutes for 2 teams of kids, good luck. At least 1 minute per kid for the individual pic and I’m guessing each team has 9-10 players. Then get them set up for a team picture? I don’t see it.

That’s crazy. When we did it as kids they had every team out on the field ready to go and everyone was done in no time. Same with basketball inside.

I have been waiting for a parking pass to park in employee parking since August. Today, I was told I could no longer park where I have been. Just park next door, they said. I can't because I don't have a pass.

Just park there and boot your own car.

It's a private parking lot which I was unaware of until today. It's directly behind the house which is where we were told to park. They also have 15 spots for 2 employees at this location. They are making a fuss about it today because they are having a company office party and need all the spots.

Go beat up FT and steal a VIP Platty from him. You would be Queen of the Parking Area!

Tell them you aren’t coming to work until you get your parking pass.

Show up with alcohol for their party and the spot is yours

The home owners signed the addendum stating they'll get the wood and water heater replaced.

I've got to cover another practice tonight for another sick coach. This is starting to get old. I have enough on my plate without adding coaching teams every night. I didn't coach a team this season because I didn't feel like it was fair to the kids since I couldn't give them 100% of my focus.

Monday night I had a parent ask why I couldn't just be the coach all season since the kids loved my practice, I explained that I run the entire league and can't dedicate enough time to have 1 team this season.

Has anybody ever started a threads to avoid thread. I think it would be a handy tool and save members a headache and valuable time.
