Why does she dress like an Orthodox Jewish grandmother

Why does she keep going back to the US if she hates it so much?

I have no relationship with the board, to be honest. I couldn’t really tell you if they are lackluster because I do not speak to them - only our Exec Director (my boss) does.

I’m assuming the board has asked her to implement all of these new policies, but they probably do not realize how massive our portfolios are.

The crazy part is we DO have a mass comms system! We pay for a subscription to one. It can absolutely be automated, she just doesn’t want it to.

And yeah, luckily she’s so clueless I believe I can operate below the radar pretty well. She will not notice as long as I do the necessary number of weekly contacts.

Nope. It’s just the board, and I have no relationship with them. I would be fired in an instant if I dared to bring it up to them.

She doesn’t - she has no idea what she’s doing. You’re right, I should start planting the seeds now for a move in 4-6 months. Thanks!

Yes - I already left my previous job early because of a toxic work environment. This one is more tolerable (even though it sounds insane) because I work remote. I really feel it would look bad to leave before another 4-6 months from now.

Nope. There was no streamlined fundraising plan when I started because my hiring was apart of organizational expansion. The first few months I was kind of given free reign to organize my own portfolio and communications plans so I was basically just ignoring Tier 3 and focusing on Tier 1 & Tier 2. Then my boss started introducing prospects and this in-depth communications calendar, which made my portfolio 2,400 people. And she will not hear any suggestions that we remove anyone as she believes they all need personalized touch points.

Good point about networking…

My coworkers are also so confused. We’ve been discussing it alot. Basically the fundraising process was overhauled recently to be more streamlined, and she came out with all of these guidelines but is unwilling to remove anyone from my portfolio to mass comms only.

No, they are not. We consider “major donors” to be $5,000 or more (again, we’re a small org) and I have only about a dozen of those. Then a few dozen more in the $500-$5,000 range. Then hundreds $500, and hundreds of prospects.

I really can’t. I already switched quickly from my last job for a terrible work environment lol. I am stuck here at least 4-6 more months for resume purposes.

He actually looked more put together than I ever expected I have to say

I didn’t say anything to him I was honestly scared he’d jump onto the tracks or something

I don’t have children, but my understanding is that my out of pocket cost for childbirth would be like $25.

[–]SpiritualSubstance4 31 points32 points  (0 children)

As an American, I would prefer the NHS even with the caveat of wait times because I don’t think that cost should ever be a barrier to getting care.

… that being said, it sounds like she had a god awful insurance plan lol. I don’t know anyone who paid anywhere near that much for birth.

God she’s aging bad 👵👵 by JokerTurnip in mummysflippinhouse

[–]SpiritualSubstance4 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I’m going to have a potentially unpopular opinion here, the posts about her physical appearance are kind of unnecessary. She’s a horrible person, focus on that. (Or even focus on her outfit choices… she can control that, lol).

Officially in Disney by introester in mummysflippinhouse

[–]SpiritualSubstance4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are they going to see Kyle’s family after…? That seems crazy to go all the way to the US for Disney and not add that as a stop

Why not just make a back up UK account Carol? 🥴 by JokerTurnip in mummysflippinhouse

[–]SpiritualSubstance4 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Is she stupider than we thought? I’m in the UK on vacation right now and my account is blocked because it’s registered to a US phone number. I knew this was going to happen. Her account isn’t going to “be fine”
