I don't know what the secretary s job entails in your home group but in mine, it entails reading the preamble, asking people to read how it works etc., circulating the roster, signing court papers and collecting the money from the basket, putting it in an envelope and giving it to our treasurer. Nothing controversial about the job, it is about facilitating the meeting.
As far as the Big Book is concerned, I do not attend meetings when chapter 8 "To Wives" is discussed LOL
That's what our chairperson does around here. You don't have to be a member of that group to chair a meeting, but most people are either regular attendees or it is their home group. I don't hold a "position" at my home group but I do sign up to chair a meeting once a month.
