1. Don't participate beyond paying your dues. Let them handle things . Then complain that the members have no voice in the association.
2. Decline all offices, committee meetings and appointments -you are to busy. Then offer vociferous advice on how to do things.
3. Even then , if appointed by to the executive committee, don't work - it's courtesy appointment. Then complain that the association has stagnated.
4. If you do attend general body meetings, don't initiate new ideas. Then play the devil's advocate to those submitted by others.
5. Don't volunteer your talent - that is ego fulfilment. Then complain that you were not asked and never appreciated.
6. Don't rush to pay your dues - these are too high anyway ! Then complain about poor financial management.
7. Don't encourage others to become members - that's a selling. Then complain that membership is not growing.
8. Don't read and respond to mail from headquarters - it is not important. Then complain that you are not kept informed.
9. Don't inform about your change in job and address - it is there duty to find out. Then complain you are not receiving mails and bulletins.
and , if by chance your association grows well inspite of your non contribution - grasp every opportunity to tell the younger generation how tough it was and how hard 'we' worked in the old days to bring the association to present level of success.
