I agree with you that SCORE is a solution, probably the best kept secret for small business. What I was trying to say in my post was not that the service we volunteers provide is anything less than awesome, but rather that the "higher ups" need to "lighten up" a little.

The extra time may or may not generate more income but you would be making a choice not to work under a code of ethics that was refined based on experience, fairness & wisdom. You must have anticipated that the use of "dictatorship" would piss a lot of people. I'm one of them! I'm a SCORE volunteer because I found in SCORE a solution, when SCORE becomes a problem, rest assured that I will walk away. After 11 years, SCORE still offers me a solution. I would rather see you balancing your volunteer and business hours and decide to seriously join us in finding better ways to work on our core mission: help the Tampa Bay area business community by offering effective counseling & strong, inspirational business educational workshops. Everything else is not that important. Regards, Juan J.
