Thanks for your work this weekend. It was the first weekend of Scott “cracking down on us,” as you phrased it. I think his email has been well taken and\u00c2\u00a0is a positive step toward providing better service to the church and for those attending. If fact, one volunteer pointed to an area in\u00c2\u00a0Scott’s email\u00c2\u00a0where the writer thinks even more tightening is needed.\u00c2\u00a0All of Scott’s suggestions or directions are made to help avoid mistakes and\u00c2\u00a0distractions, plus it gets us ready for more and more complex production pieces and new equipment.<\/font><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The “no changes” rule is firm and must be followed to the letter. This includes changing, without approval,\u00c2\u00a0just one word in the lyrics because the singer happened to sing it that way one one time, changing a line from ‘green to blue’ or ‘blue to green’ or ‘verse to chorus’ and any other change without my approval or Scott’s approval.\u00c2\u00a0 As I stated before, all the lyrics and the designations of verse and chorus were carefully reviewed, changes made and approved by Scott for final presentation as is.<\/font><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As you know, common sense tells us to change a misspelled word and to change the lyrics that we hear during the rehearsal that are different from the MP3 and confirm that the change should be made. Just let me know if you see something similar to this.<\/font><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You stated that you are now a manager. I’m sure you would not allow those under you to make changes to elements with which you have responsibility without your approval or for those you supervise to make changes without your knowledge because they personally think it would be better their way.<\/font><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Scott stated again yesterday that we are not to make last-minute changes or\u00c2\u00a0“day-of” changes. He said if you wanted to come in and review the lyrics a couple of days prior to the service, he would consider it. We want to avoid problems such as we had during the First Wednesday service this month. <\/font><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Thanks very much for your future help on this.<\/font><\/div>\n

I don’t know what to respond. It’s not a question of doing it my way. It’s a question of it making sense. This relegates me to button-pushing duties, and life is too short for that.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
