IT’S PRESIDENT’S DAY. DOES YOUR PRESIDENT DESERVE SOME
RECOGNITION?
By
Eric Glazer, Esq.

Today the
nation celebrates the birthday of our first and greatest
President, George Washington. He certainly had problems to deal
with. Assembling an army, fighting the British, battling
extreme weather and lack of supplies. In the end, he defeated
what was at the time, the most powerful nation on earth. And he
did it by basically training a nation of farmers to fight back.
An extraordinary feat. This was done even before he became
President. In other words, he became President only after
performing these amazing feats and proving himself worthy of the
Presidential title.
OK, I
know that no condo or HOA President had to fight wars and
certainly didn’t have to deal with the cold weather here in
Florida. I also know however that there are condo and HOA
Presidents out there who were faced with other monumental tasks
such as fighting the developer, making massive concrete repairs,
fixing overwhelming roof repairs, defending meritless lawsuits,
running impossible board meetings, terminating a terrible staff,
negotiating complicated contracts and a lot more.
Let’s be
nice today. How about we say a few kind words about those
people who devote an endless amount of hours to our communities
without receiving a dime? Let’s hear some nice words about the
President of your community and perhaps about a particularly
difficult job he or she handled with their Board of Directors.
Today,
put the complaints and negativity on hold. Go in a different
direction.
So here’s
to those Presidents of our communities who get the job done
through snow, rain, heat and gloom of night and help protect the
sanctity of the homes we live in.
