Is it just a bunch of drunks belly aching or is all Business Meetings like pulling teeth. I would like to know about other experiences in various groups. I feel at times that after this particular business meeting I should go and get stumbling drunk. Are all Business meetings like this? Should I put my sobriety befor the welfare of my home group? The wheels are wobbling and the horses are tired. frustrated
Just currious!

I have been to some crazy business meetings, and some that were worked out quite well. No matter how they may turn out, getting drunk over it is not the answer. Just dont go to one for a while until you are stronger in recovery. You can still find out what you need to find out by looking at the minutes without being in the chaos. Hang in there hug

you are not crazy. they are sometimes very frustrating. The first group conscious I went to I was stunned at how long we could argue about the size of coffee cups. Just remember, it's all about the fourth tradition and autonomy and making sure that we are but trusted servants...
