I really don't believe, and I know this opinion will shock everyone coming from me, but it looks like our fine HOA company and Kennecott Land really doesn't give a flying fig what the homeowners think/want.

The excuse used for keeping the meeting at the inconvenient hour of 6pm is the BOD/HOA have families and lives, it's unfair for them to have to work that late.

In all the years of climbing the corporate rungs, I never knew that was a viable excuse to blow off late meetings or customer dinners. Dang, I could have had a life! I'm gonna try that next week. After that I'll spend quality time at the unemployment office.

Oh, it just dawned on me when I wrote that last paragraph what is wrong with the whole scenario! Homeowners aren't customers! Even though we pay money for services (which in any other world would make us customers) the HOA perceives us as a flock of errant children that create problems for them. If it weren't for us darn homeowners and our expectation of services, Daybreak would run like a clock.

Seems our DCC director is taking etiquette lessons from Derek. Wow, who turns off the sound system when he doesn’t like what the resident is saying. But then everyone at CCMC exhibited a new and shining level of rudeness at last nights meeting.

And now we get to pay them more money!
