to expect a response so soon?

[LowFatMilkshake]

Some of you may recall I asked your advice about resigning from my DD's pre-school committee.

I e-mailed th chair my notice yesterday morning and have not yet had a response, not even to say she's received it and is sorry etc.

Am I jumping the gun?

yeh, I wouldn;t worry. They may not have checked their email. Give it the weekend and them maybe speak to them.

Hell yes!

Do you really expect her to check her email constantly?

Alternatively she's mulling over a thread on mumsnet entitled:

"committee member has resigned, what should I say to her?"

Fraid so.

Could be any number of reasons why she hasn't responded yet.

(ironic, me saying this, as I'm terrible when I'm waiting for something)

I do check my mails daily - from the social point of view you understand - my PC is the only life I have, I am imprisoned by my children!!

Actually, I check mine frequently too. But I know that others don't...

well they should

Yes, you are!

But, I would feel the same and would be swearing about them under my breath for not attaching the importance to replying as I think they should. It's always the case that when you are thinking about something it seems to take ages to get sorted out, it's like waiting for a pan of water to boil!

do you want her to beg you to come back?

No but it would be nice to be valued. Sometime I think most of the members (most of whos children are now in first school) use the committee as an excuse for a jolly!
