Amateur

Overeaters Anonymous should remain forever non-professional, but our service centers may employ special workers. Tradition Eight
"Amateur hour" can be a term of of derision. The Urban Dictionary says,
"Something that is done sloppily, half-assed, or in an amateur manner."
When we declare Overeaters Anonymous should be always non-professional, Are we saying it must be amateur? But is amateur a negative word?
Inherently it simply means without compensation, for the love of it.
We're been to enough weigh and pay organizations. We don't need another. Thanks, but we'll continue to manage OA and to choose folks who do it for us for the love of the program — for gratitude for a program
that works miracles in lives.
