Poor planning makes for poor results

So the browbeating has started.
After 18 months in office SP finds he can´t do as he pleases, he´s feeling pressure from the top.
Last may he said HT was not that important of a programme, all it does is try to bring people to Christ.
And there are many programmes.....
Well seems it got up the chain of command, so now it´s been proclaimed to be the single most important thing, due to a talk by Ballard last Conference.
And today we were summoned as a ward to get our act together.
Area-Presidency wants 40.000 people to bring an ancestor to the Temple in 2016.
And our ward is supposed to provide 19 of these.
Meaning 19 separate individuals must qualify for a TR and bring their own names.
OK, I get it, I must go, but with a score of 11 we were berated for not doing enough, and 8 must still go this year.
No if´s, no but´s .
It´s the bloody holidayseason, everyone is busy........
Even my TBM MIL + SIL1 were angry.
It´s one thing to set a goal, quite another one to only tell us about it on November 27th, 34 days before the deadline.
Failing to plan means planning to fail.
Needless to say I sent SP a flaming email telling him he´s setting people up to fail, and I wrote him in no uncertain terms I refuse, yes refuse, to be bullied around by an incompetent moron.
Yes, I called him an incompetent moron, so sue me.
And the church?? It´s not about numbers and money, nope........ Even SIL1 concurred with me about that. (/sarcasm)
