<Seems I was a bit ahead of the curve by not paying dues this
year..<br>
<br>
Ha...I guess I'm not the only one having second thoughts about the
direction of the organization. Waited till the last day to pay my
dues...damn...and let my RVP know how unhappy I was/am with the
direction the PTG is going. <br>
<br>
This happens every time the mediocrity of credentialism is allowed
to work its cancerous little nasty-ness: exclusion, screwed-up sense
of entitlement, stratification, and creativity replaced with kissing
up to the powers that be, and organizational enforcement unto
belligerence.<br>
<br>
I am, as we speak, trying to write up a list for myself of pros and
cons of belonging to this organization. The cons are looking pretty
heavy right now. That's really a shame too, as I would really like
to remain part of the organization on some level...the whole mess is
so bizarrely and unfathomably unnecessary.<br>
