That's what a timeshare is. You, and 51 randos sharing a place.

Actually, that's what a hotel is, but worse.

Well yes, of course. That’s different from the auction.

But not different from the winter skills clinic thing. Kids pay extra for that, yes?

Here is the email asking me to help. You be the judge:

“Good morning coaches, We need volunteers for our Sunday Winter Session the next 2 weekends. This is a good opportunity to be introduced to the new Quickball structure. The sessions will be 90 minutes. We had 20-25 kids at each of our first 2 sessions.Please respond if you can make it. Your help is VERY appreciated.”

Had you already been contacted regarding your kids participating in Winter Session?
If so, were fees included in this communication?

I rescind my initial opinion. Needing to come on-line and ask a bunch of assholes if you're the asshole, makes you the asshole.

This is the original introduction to the auction by the way:

Hi ______- sorry for the text out of the blue…

_________ here. ________ passed your number along.

Would you want to help us run the show on the upcoming poker fundraiser/auction for Little League?

I’m team bammer as far as the poker fundraiser goes. You don’t ask for someone to volunteer for something then expect them to pay to go volunteer. Plus, he’s made a donation for the silent auction.

Unless more information comes to light for the Winter program, I’m team Little League guy.

Thank you, Your Honor, for an opportunity to present the full evidence in this case. I’d like to request a recess while I gather exhibits.

PS - I was just “invited” to what is now the 3rd pre-auction planning meeting next week. I was originally told there would be one such meeting.

PPS - Someone tried to recruit Mrs. Bam to volunteer as treasurer for the PTA. She’s all like fuck no.

When neither of your kids is drafted, you’ll know whom to blame.

Your wife did the right thing saying no to the Treasurer role. One thing I know is that anyone on any PTA is automatically an arsehole.

I had a very bad experience with a group of nasty, gossipy Mums on my school PTA when I was in middle school. Fuck those slags.
