2) When someone gets an aliya & then feels the need to מי שברך the entire shul individually... ואת... ואת
That's what ואת כל המתפללים is for

Rule of thumb is the longer the mishaberach the bigger the donation. Be happy your shul is making money and you dont have to pay for it.

Maybe they should make an ad free option of shul, you pay for a premium version on davening
I'm not who you think I am.

And the poor gabbai has to run around the shul getting the guests names & they're so deep in conversation they don't know if they're getting an aliya or what's happening.

Peeves make lousy pets.

They're difficult to care for, they eat a lot, and they don't clean up after themselves.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Minhag from the Rishonim. I guess you should just be happy you weren't by any of the Ballei Tosfos brissim

Ouch.

Unless it was because of hakafos. Hakafos always go longer than expected.

Longer than expected is expected but not 2 hrs longer.

If its a yeshiva I could understand 2 hours. If its not then it is extreme.

I wanted to set up a system in my shul whereas for a basic MiShaberach it's $18. Any additional names it's $10 more - per name.
