Sacked!

Well fuck me (for the second time this week). For the first time ever in my life, I've been sacked.

Yes, a nice e-mail yesterday from the IOF (International Orienteering Federation) informs me "following the announcement of your resignation as President of NZOF, Council determined not to reappoint you for a further term" on the IOF's FOC (Foot Orienteering Committee).

Following my resignation as Head Honcho? WTF???

The letter they probably wanted to send would have been along the lines of:

Rob, we do appreciate your work but you have a big mouth. We don't like people who don't toe the line. We don't like people who offer criticism, even if it is warranted. So naff off.

At least then I would have appreciated their honesty. That has to be the most lame-ass excuse for a dumping I've ever seen. Still, over the last couple of years I've tempered my criticism of IOF on various things because of my "position". Now, I can come out full guns blazing - heh.
