The joys of beaurocracy

taylweaverSo I have spent a good chunk of this past week working on putting together a mailing that needs to go out to twelve USY groups that are going to Israel in two shifts. I have spent just as big a chunk of time not preparing this mailing - which has a rather urgent need to be in the mail by tomorrow.
Why is this, you ask? Because in order to make corrections, I need to get to a computer. And there aren't any spare ones. That's one reason.
What's the other reason, you ask? (or maybe you just don't want to know) Because the people who need to give the papers a second read-through are too busy doing other urgent stuff. So I spent three days mostly waiting for other people.
But now most of the pieces are ready to go, so tomorrow should be fun - hooray for stuffing envelopes.
Things can get tense when beaurocracy makes messes.
In other news, I did get free dinner. It's fun to work for a Jewish organization...
