The other day me and Dan worked up some little slogans to help our roster overseers be assertive in the frustrating task of managing our church rosters. Here are a couple:
- If you want to impress upon people that they are in charge of the venue keys, for locking up, passing the keys on and notifying the roster overseers about who they gave the keys to: "If you've got the key's, you've got the keys."
- If you want to call someone to account for not turning up to church when rostered on say: "Not turning up to church causes stress on others and disrupts the church."
- If you want to explain to others in the church why there is no tea and coffee tonight at church say: "The kitchen roster is not happening tonight because x didn't turn up for some reason."
