Hang on gang... The president sent my resignation letter to the entire board and the alpha male called her and resigned. Then he sent me a email saying I lied from the back of the room but the spat was between just the two of us. That he was not going to attend future meetings and would be out of town for the Expo. Then he asked me to stay on in the club because I had a lot to offer. I feel like this is the story of a wolf pack on Animal Planet. I wrote him back and told him that the difference between us wasn't so much in the grooming of display orchids but in the way to treat each other. I also said his egotistical, caustic behavior in front of members was hurting the club and the reason we couldn't get new volunteers. I also said his orchid knowledge was a tremendous asset but it came at too high a price. I wonder what will happen next? I'm reloading as I type...
