| Why don't you do what I did late year when an important
digital/Microsoft meeting was scheduled on RH. I wrote a note to the
person who planned the event explaining the conflict and reminding him
about the VoD goals of the corporation.
I got a note back thanking me for bringing the conflict to his
attention, but "it's hard to reschedule at such a late date"!!and that
they will take it into consideration "next time"!
I'm sure you'll get the same response :^)

| I've spoken by phone to the person who is supposed to get the RSVPs.
She said she'll consult her boss on this and mentioned something about
the availability of the hotel for the possible dates.
Of course the hotel rooms are available on RH and YK. Not everybody
makes that kind of mistake!

| Of course, not everyone can do this, but by volunteering to help plan
an event, you can avoid a scheduling problem.
My team will hold a dinner in the middle of September. By getting
involved with the planning, I'm making sure the dinner doesn't fall
on a chag. Plus, I can ensure that the vegetarian alternative is
appetizing.

1356.4 | never enough reinforcement | TNPUBS::STEINHART | Back in the high life again | Thu Aug 19 1993 19:47 | 7 |
| My manager mentioned in a recent meeting that she would schedule a
group training opportunity in September. I hastened to give her the
specific times for our holidays, including leaving early the day
before. We have several Jewish people in my group, so I'm sure this
was important to her.

1356.5 | Send a calendar for all year (and next) | RICKS::KRAVITZ | Caution: I drive like you do! | Thu Aug 19 1993 21:50 | 7 |
| Dave,
Did you send a holiday calendar for the coming year(s) to the person
responsible for scheduling the recognition event? You might prevent
Q3's event from occuring on Purim, for instance.

1356.6 | This one is an annual event | DECSIM::HAMAN::GROSS | The bug stops here | Fri Aug 20 1993 00:17 | 5 |
| This event is annual. At one time I was on the approval committee.
The upper level of management is at an offsite meeting today, else
I would have had some progress to report.

| At first I was told I was the only one who complained, therefore they
couldn't do anything about it. Then just a few minutes ago, this came
via MAIL:

TO: RECOGNITION WALL NOMINEES
SEG STAFF
Last May the SEG Recognition Dinner was scheduled for September
15. Unfortunately, we missed the fact that although Rosh Hashanah
is September 16, it actually begins at sundown on the evening prior.
SEG is committed to the valuing of differences, therefore, in
deference to the Jewish members of our organization, the SEG
Recognition Wall Dinner has been changed to a later date. The new
date will be Tuesday, September 21, 1993....the time and place are
unchanged.
We sincerely hope that this rescheduling will allow all of our
Recognition Wall nominees to attend.
If you have already confirmed your attendance with Carole Clark,
please re-confirm for the new date. Thank you.
