This crap is going too far too rapidly.

I sit on the Board and am Treasurer of a well-capitalized non-profit organization.

We have monthly meetings, and the board is comprised mostly of business people, with the occasional kook thrown in.

The meetings are usually over lunch.

First, it was pizza. Then, it was sandwiches and soup or a fruit cup. Then it was salad and dressing. Today, the dressing disappeared because it is "chocked full of trans-fats".

I told them today I would not be coming to the noontime Board meetings anymore unless they feed us, and that something on the order of ribs and all the fixings would be in order.

If they want to promulgate a generation of skeletors, they can do it without me.

What kind of a reaction did you get with that pronouncement?
