I always disliked having the last item on the SM. I had to plan to do short versions of the item because timekeeping was notoriously bad in the cong' I attended and the accumulative effect of others left the last item with reduced time. I hated any meeting that went past its time. Once when I was an MS I had a 10 minute item at the end of the Service Meeting. When I got up to the podium we were already past time. I gave a 30 second synopsis of the item and ended the meeting. None of the elders made any comment but several other cong members thanked me for ending the meeting as near to time as I could.
The meetings were boring enough already, prolonging the agony was just too much for most people.
