So, the founder and president of our little charity e-mailed his resignation yesterday.

Posted by TFox Jan 5 '09, 11:51

And I am extremely conflicted about it.

On the one hand, I think we do great and important work in our limited sphere of influence. We were finally getting to a size of some respectability. With him resigning, I would likely be the only logical choice to replace him as president, which, that couldn't hurt the resume, right?

On the other hand, most (read: all) of the other staff members (read: my friends) are lazy and don't do shit. The president and I combined for probably 80% of the work we did this last year, and so that would either fall on me or need to get picked up by people who have demonstrated that they can't.

So, should I give it a shot? Recommend disbanding the company? I'm very torn.

Is there no way you could find someone who's willing to actually help you? - krusty Jan 5, 12:05
Don't disband. You'd have to find a new job in this shitty economy. - Mop Jan 5, 11:59
Recommendation: You're doing good work. Don't disband. - TaurusII Jan 5, 11:57

- As much as I'd actually like to sort of do this with some, it is complicated by us all being friends, *and* - TFox Jan 5, 11:59
The former, with the latter as a back-up. -- nm - nubby, fatso Jan 5, 11:53
