*** Gabriel has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)13:09
*** janet has quit (Ping timeout: 480 seconds)13:09
fkoikoiat this junction, the team await jeff to give any comment or suggestion about the operating agreement that was sent to him13:09
jelkneri think it looks great13:09
jelknerbut there is one problem at the end13:09
jelknerit lists me as registered agent13:10
jelknerthat needs to change13:10
jelkneri don't know if the rules are the same in Liberia as here13:10
jelkneror even if you need a "registered agent"13:10
jelknerbut if you do, it needs to be one of you13:10
jelknerin any event, i think it is ready enough for you to meet with your attorney13:11
jelknerdo you agree?13:11
fkoikoiyes13:11
fkoikoiis there anything else on the operating agreement?13:13
jelknernot from me13:13
fkoikoibefore we move to the next item jeff13:14
fkoikoiI will like you to give clarity on something 13:14
jelknergreat13:14
fkoikoiThat is if we happens to establish and registered jetro web development as a legal business13:15
jelkneryou mean "when", not "if", don't you? ;-)13:16
fkoikoiwill everyone be paid according to the amount of work done or per hour?13:16
jelknerpaid by whom, fkoikoi?13:16
fkoikoiby the cooperative13:17
jelknerthat's not what i mean13:17
jelknerthe cooperative is a business, *your* business13:17
jelkneryou decide how it operates13:17
jelknerbut a more important question to start is, "How will the cooperative be paid?"13:18
jelknerwill you bill by the hour13:18
jelkner?13:18
jelkneror by the task?13:18
jelkneror something else?13:18
fkoikoiyeah13:18
successfulsure that is what she mean13:18
jelknerthere is so much to learn13:18
jelknerat NOVA Web Development we like to be able to bill by the hour13:18
fkoikoithat's exactly the question i was trying to as 13:18
jelknerwith customers whom we trust13:18
jelknerand who trust us13:19
jelknersince you often can't tell in advance how "big" a task is13:19
jelknersometimes tasks seem simple13:19
jelknerbut unexpected complications arise13:19
jelknerICT is like that13:19
jelkneryou need to learn to estimate costs13:19
jelknerbut it is often hard to do so precisely13:19
jelknersince i trust you13:20
jelknerwhen you are billing me, you can bill by the hour13:20
jelkneri want you to bill by the hour13:20
jelknerbecause then i can look at my bill with you, and say, "wow, you did that fast!" or "this took a lot longer than i thought it would"13:21
jelknerwhen you do work for NOVA Web Development, i will try to keep things that way13:21
jelknerbut if we find a customer who says, "I'll pay you $500 for a basic website"13:21
jelknerand you say, "We want that"13:22
jelknerthen you can take it13:22
jelknerand you have to deliver what you agree with the customer13:22
jelknerit's your own business13:22
jelkneryou can do whatever you want13:22
jelknerprovided the customers agree to pay you that way13:22
jelknerACTION done13:22
jelknerfor now13:22
fkoikoialright, thanks for the clarity 13:22
jelknerACTION is *really* looking forward to the two weeks he will have in person with the Jetro Websters!13:24
fkoikoiwith that been said, there is a little editing that is needed to be done on the agreement 13:24
jelknerwhich part?13:24
fkoikoiand will be done today13:24
jelknercan you tell me which part?13:25
jelknerthis is a good disucssion13:25
jelknerit would be nice to read that part now and talk about it13:25
jelknergive me the section13:25
jelkneri have the document open13:25
fkoikoiyes 13:25
successfuljust a minute she is looking for it13:25
fkoikoisection 1613:26
fkoikoihourly payment13:26
jelkneri think that section looks good13:27
jelknerwhat is wrong with it?13:27
fkoikoiHourly payment talks about the members tracking their hours worked for and be paid for it13:28
jelkneryes, but it also says "This hourly rate is a goal but is not guaranteed."13:28
jelknerthat's a great line13:28
jelkneryou need flexibility13:28
successfulso are the member going to be paid by the hour they work for13:29
jelknersince you are all new to this, and you will need to learn from experience13:29
jelknerbut it is great to have a goal of paying an hourly rate13:29
jelknerthat sounds very reasonable to me13:29
fkoikoialright 13:29
jelknerit should be what you all *want*13:29
fkoikoisure 13:29
jelknerit is aspirational13:29
fkoikoiMy next question jeff13:30
jelknerthe "not guarenteed" gives you the wiggle room to make adjustments13:30
jelknerbut states clear what you want13:30
jelkneryou should talk with your attorney13:30
gabriel_ok13:30
fkoikoiokay13:31
jelknerremember, you need to make sure what ever you write meets the legal requirements of Liberia13:31
fkoikoisure13:31
jelknernow, let's talk about next steps13:32
jelkneri wish scooper were here13:32
fkoikoiGuys, I think we should hold on to the operating agreement for now13:32
jelknerfkoikoi, Jetro Web needs to become a business soon13:32
jelkneror it can't sign an agreement with Kamal Foundation13:32
jelknerso we can't hold for too long13:33
gabriel_s. cooper should have but maybe he gat stock on something13:33
jelknerhe was at the Supe's house, gabriel_ 13:33
jelknerhe was trying to connect, but he couldn't13:33
fkoikoiand wait till we hear from the lawyer 13:33
jelknerok, now i know what you are saying13:33
jelknerthat sounds good13:33
jelknerfkoikoi, we are on agenda item 2, yes?13:34
fkoikoiyes 13:34
jelkneri want to make a proposal13:34
jelknerthe cost of the consultation with the attorney is $20013:34
jelknerwhile i want to help out, i believe strongly that all of you need to have "skin in the game" as the saying goes13:35
jelknerso you should all chip in for this13:35
jelknerthose that are getting a larger stipend perhaps should be expected to chip in more13:35
jelknerit's up to you, not me13:35
jelknerbut i need to know what you all decide soon13:35
jelknerit is 3/2313:35
jelknerand almost time for me to send the monthly stipend13:36
jelkneri plan to include a few extra dollars this month to help out with the attorney fee13:36
jelknerbut i need to know how much13:36
jelknerso fkoikoi, can you please get together with everyone (including scooper) and make a proposal back to me?13:37
fkoikoiyes jeff13:37
jelknergreat13:37
jelknernext thing about this13:37
jelknerstarting in April, i want to move forward toward running this like a real business13:38
jelknerat the end of April I am committed to sending the same $800 as I have been (though that will go down in August, as I will explain in agenda item 3)13:38
jelknerbut i want you to bill me for it13:39
jelkneri will only send it if i get an invoice from Jetro Web Development13:39
jelknerso you need to learn how to do that next month13:39
jelkneri wanted to answer any questions that you have now about that13:39
jelknerso you know what you need to learn13:39
jelknerfkoikoi, this is mainly your responsibliity13:40
fkoikoiwhat do you mean by invoice jeff?13:40
jelknerhold on...13:40
jelknergive me 5 minutes to find an example13:40
gabriel_so with the issue of PCEP when we'll be doing ours if i made ask?13:41
fkoikoiI think I have an idea about that jeff 13:43
fkoikoijelkner 13:45
jelknerfkoikoi, can you answer gabriel_'s question?13:45
fkoikoiI already did Jeff or should I put it here13:46

jelknerfkoikoi, can you see the document to which i just linked?13:47

jelknerthat is an invoice13:47
jelknerNOVA Web actually built a web application called Business Tracker13:48
jelknerhttps://gitlab.com/novawebdevelopment/business-tracker13:49
jelkneri'm thinking, fkoikoi, that now might be the time to get you trained to use it13:49
jelknerit generates invoices13:49

jelknernext year i will get only 80%13:52
jelknersince i am going part time13:52
jelkneri will not be able to afford to send $800 each month13:53
jelknerso we need to plan for that13:53
jelknerif we work hard, and work smart, we can keep the same level of income, and even raise it13:53
