Like being so embarrassed over the condition of one employee's car that he wasn't actually allowed to park it on the grounds of the church, although I heard maybe he was later allowed to park it somewhere inconvenient, but hidden from view. Like turning off the air conditioning in the church building and making them work without it all afternoon and evening during the worst heat of the summer. By generally just not speaking to them like they're people.

I'm only saying this now in hopes that someone there will see himself and change, if it hasn't changed already. These guys need to know that church doesn't stop on Sunday, and if they're going to run a business of sorts during the week, they need to remember they have a staff that consists of more than just those who work in their offices. They need to be treated with respect and consideration as well.

Great post jsibelius!! I like being made aware of stuff like this. Not because I ever plan to work there....Some people can't stand "thieves", my pet peeve is "Hypocrites", and though businesses need to be ran as "business", we should all never forget how to truly treat human beings. The Churches tell us to love thy neighbor, but not your employee's????????????
