Bad Advice to Youth Pastors about Youth Pastors:
When a new youth pastors starts her new job at the church down the street. Ignore her. Don't call.* Don't take her to lunch.
Invite her to your pathetic network so that you can talk about her later and call her names.
After you meet her, be sure to draw quick conclusions about her character and background.
Start a network pool based on how long you think she'll last at first church.
If the youth worker is female, make sure you crack some guy humor, and present her with the boys club facade.
If the youth worker is female. Hit on her.
If the youth worker is male. Hit on him.
Be as arrogant as possible and talk trash about other pastors on your staff.
And most importantly:
Steal as many of the other youth pastors kids as possible. Especially the the popular, goodlooking and talented kids.
*It's okay to call if you are inviting her kids to your cool rock concert or outreach event.
