[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 177199, member: 3626"] It can be mind-numbing meetings with some very small-minded individuals. You might be frustrated to no end because a small group will basically run roughshod over the meetings and have the votes to get through what they want regardless of what is best for all. Like many political jobs, it can be thankless. Do be prepared to have people harangue you on the streets, at the bowling alley, in the public bathroom. At the same time, you may actually be able to accomplish something or at least say you tried. You may actually be a voice that is heard and listened to. Public service is thankless but worthwhile. If you think you can handle the frustrations, go for it. If not, enjoy your life as it is and do what is right for you. [/QUOTE]
