<div dir="ltr">Good evening all,<div><br><div>I appreciate being able to read all of these comments at once having been away from my email today.</div><div>Thank you for the job descriptions, Roy (and Pat).

Has she had supervisory responsibility and is that one of her strengths?</span><br></div><div>Also, either Freida is ready, willing and able to be the Steward with minimal training (general consensus) or she needs lots of training on the details of running the clubhouse, staff payroll and supervision. etc (Jerry).</div><div><br></div><div>Jerry told me earlier this week that Freida has to start at the beginning of the process to get her launch license because it has been expired for 5 years.</div><div>I am not concerned that staff (Freida) are not able to drive the launch but what level of liability does the Club have if there is any kind of incident? Does our insurance policy cover an unlicensed launch driver?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Again, I support Glenn/Wes having direct conversations with the staff and settling the terms of employment. It seems inappropriate that Jerry is 'negotiating' for the rest of the staff and positioning himself for a subordinate job in 2019.</div><div><br></div><div>In my experience, when an organization likes how things are being run and want it to continue in the same direction, new hires are from within. If the organization wants or sees an opportunity for change/improvement, new hires are from outside the current staff. Given this point of view, it seems (with a few tweaks) the BOD and members are happy with the way things are being done at PYC. Hiring Freida might send that message and stabilize some of the unrest in the staff.</div><div><br></div><div>Hoping to see most of you tomorrow at docks-in.</div><div>Best,</div><div>Pat</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 27, 2018 at 6:26 PM, Jeremy Small <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jsmall.105@gmail.com" target="_blank">jsmall.105@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I think it would be very hard for any Steward if Jerry is still around.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Fri, Apr 27, 2018, 5:53 PM Roy Briscoe <<a href="mailto:roysail@hotmail.com" target="_blank">roysail@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<div>This is better than I hoped for.....great feedback on an important issue. We can do remote meetings (only kidding). All comments are on point and this is why we have a BOD and not a dictator.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>No steward decisions have been made other than to form the search committee. The only reason I sent info out is that I did not want the BOD to be told about the new decision made by Jerry 2 or 3 months from now. Better to deal with it at the present
time. Again, my attachment was ONLY to provide new information and to throw out some issues that we may want to think about.</div>

<u>offer</u> (not an ultimatum) to stay on to assist in training someone entirely new the following year. It is my understanding no offers have been made to Frieda or Mike as yet so we really don't know if they will be accepting, demanding or otherwise. Frankly,
I think the inmates are restless at this point not knowing where they stand. And with regard to Frieda amassing an enormous paycheck, since we have potentially so many dockhands (at lower rates of pay), simply reduce the time Frieda spends on the dock by
the amount of training time she needs (probably very little; what's the big deal?). Let's make an offer to these people and then see whether they are boxing us into a corner (which I doubt; I think they feel they have a pretty good deal at the club), or let
them walk.<br>

<div>Thanks so far for the comments. I agree that it appears that the "inmates are running the asylum", but at the end of the day the BOD has the final word. This year has been interesting so far, in that we have had significant personnel changes to deal
with, and we are also trying to get the salary picture into a framework that will benefit the club in the future. In some respects we may be behind the power curve, but this most recent revelation was not on the horizon, and the plan that was voted on was
certainly accomplished in a timely manner to replace the steward.</div>
<div>As far as reactionary decision making, the only decision that fits into that category is one that I made, not the board, so I disagree that the BOD has been reactionary. Plus, a lot of the issues that we are dealing with have been pushed down the road
in the past, and I thank this BOD for stepping up and taking action.</div>
<div>Enough of my banter. I will await further feedback, and this issue will be on the next meeting agenda. We still have time for either plan to play out.</div>
