church politics

so my boss reported that it's not like us church workers to enjoy conflict, confrontation and such. it's not in our nature (hence actually answering the call to the ministry)...
however with all the drama that takes place in the church i sometimes wonder just how cut out for it some of us are.

maybe i've become apathetic to it but i remember when i first started there were people and things and people saying things that just got under my skin.
we all know the type.
the people that have grown up in that church since they were yaaaay high and the church has always done it like this and so on...
those people, who have been there longer than you have.

those people eventhough the boards and commities and offices have either interviewed you or appointed you to your position STILL think they reign over you.

some days i think...now if we all banned together and told those people to plop off their high horse and where they can shove their opnions how wonderful that would be...
...however none of us do, we ignore them and just accept that being annoying and thinking they know it all is just in their nature

...because it's not in ours to tell them they really don't know everything and they do kinda suck at life.
