You're correct, in the big picture it really is meaningless. I am definitely embarrassed for allowing a new board member, or any board member for that matter, make me react out of character. My pride just took over after being wronged. It really was less about the item and more about the principle. That's why I didn't accept the "free gift", I took it as though they were offering hush money and felt I was being bought out. I didn't feel like it was genuine. If I was wrong, I apologize. I felt I was doing the rest of the board a service by exposing the practices of this person, that way nobody else had to experience what I did. Ultimately, I just wish it never happened. I realize nobody on the board wants to read this kind of nonsense. I'm sorry.
