Recent dissonance in Coop Board Meetings has prompted the Human Resources director to “instruct” Colin Fiske to ask a Member to not disrupt or be barred from the meetings. This was following a lengthy complaint by several members who expressed dismay that “we’ve been here several sessions and nobody does anything about our suggestions and next session it’s not even mentioned. There is a disconnect between us out here and you (Fiske) up there” . When Melanie, the General Manager ( paid $500 a day) , stood up and responded with a report about breakfast burritos, Member #117 became perturbed, raised his hand, rose and explained that there was a funded ad hoc Members’ consortium organized to remove Fiske and Bettenhousen. After he walked out the HR director, Michelle, told Colin to bar him from the meetings. Nice open discussion !
Silencing people is not how Democracy works!

The article by Ryan Burns has been posted on the Lost Coast Outpost. It is a good account, at least he represented my comments the way I remember them. He also gives out the address of this blog. Let the discussions begin.
