"4 or 5 people to a chair to share" made me think of people sharing chairs at desks and it made me lol. Thanks annabella for fleshing the idea out for me - too funny!
On a more serious note, I think it's a little crazy that your nationals would tell you you need more chair positions without giving you a list of positions. Some "chairs" require less work than others. For example, we had "purchasing." We would do a group purchasing project once or twice a year and buy a t-shirt. They also helped sister-mothers buy items for their daughters during new member period. They did their "job" maybe 3 times a semester, and spent most of their "job" on the phone with greek stores asking questions, between classes.
The most intensive part of it was getting people to give up their money, and coming up with cute ideas which they would put to chapter for voting.
Ooooohh it was a drama-filled chapter meeting when we wanted to do sweatpants. Half the chapter wanted letters on the butt, half the chapter wanted letters on the leg near the cuff. I think we decided on not putting letters, but rather spelling out Alpha Gamma Delta, down the leg, so that no one felt like they were rubbing their ass all over our letters.
I'm not kidding. People were crying.
