Confirmation Postcards in the Rec Packets?

[AZTheta]

We're expressing our opinions - right?

I telephone, text, or email the PNM I've written a rec for, to let them know I submitted the rec. The confirmation card is over the top for me; while I wouldn't be offended*, I probably wouldn't mail it, either. Because I'd already notified the PNM that I did my part. Know what I mean?

*Actually I'd feel like I was being micromanaged or not trusted to do what I said I would do. But I usually discount my feelings and stick with the facts.

Total swerve: I never have received any acknowledgement (written or email) from ANY chapter for a rec I've submitted. And I know they have preprinted thank you cards that are expressly designed to send to alumnae, thanking them for writing a rec for Suzy PNM, and usually notifying them of where Suzy pledged (or if she didn't). I've seen boxes of the preprinted cards in the Ritual closet at a chapter I advised. Those are not inexpensive, either.

Yeah. THAT gets me annoyed. Big time. Based on facts.
