* Discussion notes:
*We have been short in some of the cash deposits. Staff seem to be taking appropriate steps. It comes out to $600 over 3 months.
*Neil: last year we were often over. So some money is not being recorded as it comes in, and some money may be going missing. So because of our loose system, it's hard to really know how much is going missing.
*Paul-- I understand we're curious about North Shop revenue specifically, so ACTION: PAUL-- will send that out.
*ACTION: Paul to get short PayPal tutorial from Neil tonight.
*November - a big Babac order put us in the red, no grant money came in. December - the opposite. (but a lot of that grant money is committed to particular stuff-- it shows as revenue, but we should really show the corresponding program expense, since it's dedicated to stuff that also wasn't in the budget.)
*How is Paul finding his job? --Has monthly duties written down, believe he understands relatively well except some things written down to ask Neil tonight. Will swing by both shops in next day or two to pick up monies in the safe ... Duncan-- in future could you draw out the important stuff in bullet points as part of your report? Paul-- of course. Anna-- can we do anything for you? Paul --no I'm fine, but I can be a procrastinator, especially when I don't understand things. You will get monthly reports, with bullet points highlighting important points. Anna-- acknowledges that no one wanted to take over Treasurer, so thanks! Neil-- you might want some help with cash handling come the summer. Paul-- thanks, I have appreciated Neil and Chris's assistance and patience.
