Oh God! I've been there ! Frying pan into the fire. Good luck though. Sounds like you'll you'll be doing service and instructing part time, no?

Here's a good one: An instructor at a Vo Tech we taught at had an enraged customer (and I mean she was spitting fire) disrupt the guy's class. The guy had done a repair for this nut job the day before and made the mistake of telling her where he taught.

But as far as RSES seminars go he chapter buys beer, pop, and snakes. And the guys throw what ever into the jar. It's just a way of supporting the chapter.
