Kyleakin Lofts Posted November 19, 2017 Report Share Posted November 19, 2017 Their's no question that the natives are restless.. Everything costs money, that's just life but if you were running a business and you lose clients every year, theirs no way you should be paying your staff more money. ( NOT SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT THE STAFF, I THINK THEY ARE GREAT )Id say the way forward is being paid a basic wage then bonuses per member, this would encourage the SHU to try and get more members into the sport.Secondly, if you are running a business and your staff aren't needed then you pay them off,or offer them something else that is in accordance with the amount of work you have, simple as that.These are harsh words that most people are frightened to say in the fear of upsetting this and that but I can guarantee this, every single SHU member will agree with this statement. So, WHY AREN'T THINGS SORTED? The SHU is only as good as its delegates and I do believe change is on its way as we have 2 decent ones in Andy and Tommy. They certainly aren't nodding dogs and aren't frightened to bring members issues up. The price of everything is dictated by the office/staff running costs, its easy to work it out and should be easily modified as well. Other issues 1. Id have a ballot vote available for the AGM. 2. Id have a chip and pin machine in the SHU office so members can pay directly over the phone and this in turn keeps everything in black and white and accountable.3. the Appeal committee made up of unbiased people not associated with the SHU. 4. Distances should be free as they are with other organisations. Rant over Derek, I agree with some of your points, but I would say all delegates are decent. Perhaps, a certain amount of laxity has entered the scenario, but I can assure you that all the points you raise will be discussed and considered at some point.
