Super Sub!

8/6/08

I was at a chapter recently who had a 'Super Sub' and I really mean a Sub who was super. (More about the other kind another time.)

This guy was really amazing. The story started some weeks before when he was asked to be a subsitute for a member but forgot to turn up. Obviously the member was marked as absent. Well, the member when he found out wasn't too impressed and let his subsitute know!

So next time the member wanted a Sub, whom did he call? Yes, the same person.

And, this was the meeting that I was attending. When the subsitute was called to read out the member's 60 seconds, it was great, but about half way through the 60 seconds it then told us that this was the person who had let the member down and we could be as horrible to him as he deserved! He finished and sat down; brave to read it if you ask me.

After the members, as there was no clash, the subsitute was asked to give his 60 seconds. He introduced himself, told us what he did and then picked up two bags and started to give out bottles of wine. Everyone received a bottle and it was his way of saying sorry to the member and us for letting the chapter down!

Amazing and what a way to be remembered! And I've kept his card, because if he cares that much, I bet he also cares about his job!
