| Subject: I made the "glad to be done" comment, and you've taken it upon yourself to be a know-it-all, and you are incorrect in your assumptions. First of all, it was my choice to be done. I know Ashley and personally contacted her when she was awarded the state program and wished her well. However, I lost faith in MAO because they took nine years to finally fix the problems in Illinois, despite being made aware of the issues in year 1!!! In addition, I saw the quality of volunteers spiral downward under the last leadership, and as I see people post comments here about the behavior of the left-overs from the A.S. days, that is why I made the comment that I'm happy to be done. So you were way off base! Since I lost faith in MAO, I have decided to stay away because I think it's best. Ashley brings her own perspective to the program and needs to bring in people who will bring a freshness to the program. My time in the program has come and gone, at my choice. Let's leave it at that. ;) | |

Date Posted: 23:09:17 07/04/16 Mon In reply to: 's message, "*grateful That's the exact opposite of my interactions w/Ashley, both as an ED & as a person I've known for many years. What your post tells me is this: 1) It wasn't your choice to be excluded from the program, 2) Ashley somehow didn't give you the strokes you felt you deserved, & 3) You need some perspective if ANY pageant week can be considered "one of the worst weeks" of your life. Personally, I thought the week ran as smoothly as could be expected. I found the environment much more positive & hopeful, much less tense, dramatic & contentious, than it has been in years. The result was an absolutely stunning, capable Miss Illinois who has already represented our program exceptionally well in the first 2 weeks. Rather than mentioning the positive things, you have instead chosen to be consistent w/what has been a fatal flaw in the organization in the past-somehow making it all about you. If you simply cannot be positive, then your attitude will not be missed." on 11:34:50 06/30/16 Thu [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
