Good start to the day

sobriqueWell, I've just been involved in an email discussion.
I dislike getting nasty emails.
The one centres around something that I volunteered to do last year, but have since decided that I'm no longer prepared to deal with the 'hassle'.
I feel somewhat indignant that I get a somewhat snotty email about how I'm being stubbornly unhelpful.
Now, the way I see it is this: If I volunteer to do something, I will do the best I can to accomplish it.
If I stop doing something (which I volunteered for), I will give sufficient warning that I will, such that those who have come to depend upon it will have time to make other arrangements.
It's somewhat ironic that the primary reason why I stopped then finds the need to flame me over it.
I'm still trying to figure out what to do about a group activity where one member of the group seems to be very successful at antagonising a lot of the others.
Never mind, after a couple of cups of coffee, I will calm down again, and then will get on with the rest of my day.
