Default question for you meeting pro's

ok I applied for an internal position within the company I work for now, I should be finding out soon if I was picked or not and if I do it will entail 8 weeks of training come january and I won't be able to take off during my day to attend my meeting on tuesdays.. so my question is, am I allowed to miss 8 meetings and then go back once I'm finished or will that be too long of a span and I'd need to re-sign up or something? how does that work? I've looked into other meetings in my area and there are none that are on the weekends that I can switch to in the meantime but I was just thinking ahead. So what do you all think?

i think you need to pay for all meetings missed or attended to stay active. for that span i would just re-sign when you are able to again. by then they should be running another deal too. no night meeting?
good luck, hope you get the position.

Can you swap over to the online membership for the next couple of months?

Do you pay weekly, or do you have the monthly pass?

I think if you have the monthly pass, you can just weigh in once a month somewhere, even if it is a quick run in and get weighed, and then you won't have to resign up.

Online doesn't give you your meeting status though. It makes you sign back up.

As a weekly paying member, for you to remain an active weigher/meetings member, you need to weigh in at a location (even if you don't attend the meeting) once every 4 weeks.

You could pay for each week's meeting and weigh in but not attend the meeting. That would only take a few minutes.

Alternatively you could just drop it and not go to meetings. Technically you can come back at that point and pay for missed meetings without having to rejoin. However, in most cases after you missed several meetings it is cheaper to rejoin.

In your case, if I thought that weighing in weekly without attending meetings would keep me focused on weight loss and help my mosses then I would do that even though it would be more expensive.
