Top Ten Ways to Make the PC of AfterFinals January 1997 Happy
10. Sign-up Early! Not on Thursday, after the food has been bought.
9. Don't change your mind and remove your name from the sign-up
on Thursday, after the food has been bought.
8. Be a sub-PC!
7. Don't forget that you are a sub-PC (despite the PC's numerous
email reminders) and thus force the PC to pick up your job at
the last minute.
6. If you are a passenger, show up on time for your ride!
5. If you are a driver, be reasonable (at least give them 8 minutes)
about waiting for your passengers.
4. Listen to the PC when she says, "The food will be cold enough
if we leave it by the door, we don't need to put it outside."
3. Help the PC cook. Yes, *cook*. Not standing around, not goofing off,
not showing off <this comment is completely directed at the men>.
2. If you can't/won't cook, you must help clean. The PC should not
have to ask/demand your help. You should volunteer.
And the number one way to make the PC of AfterFinals January 1997
happy is......
1. Say "Thank you". The PC not only made calls, coordinated with BU,
bought the food, and cooked the food, but also arranged a
fellowship game. Show your PC some gratitude and she'll be more
willing to do things again. Show your PC disrespect and she
will not feel any desire to do anything for you.

P.S. Thank you to my sub-PC's Grant and Gina for making phone calls
and arranging transportation for everyone.
Thank you to Junko, Bani, Tuknekah, and Heather Drake for
helping with Saturday's dinner preparations.
