The thing is a lot of JWs in my area were making aux pioneer a goal (many the first time in years) if the hours were lowered. Majority of those hours being 'honest' FS too.
It seemed more realistically possible for them at 35.
Our CO didn't deny rather he hinted and winked........ so I think at some point it was true, even still might be for Memorial season or next year.
WTS lurkers..... your members really were overjoyed by the lowering and were eager to show their appreciation. Yes by lowering the hours eventually they would think they too were too much but that is a numbers game yall started under as Ozzie calls him Ratherflawed.. Perhaps the other rumor that yall are abandoning the numbers game in stage is a good idea......cuz the numbers will continue to fall and drag down morale....spinning things as persecution & proof of the end wouldn't fly as well as it has in the past........ I think the current business model needs revamping..... eventually the livery was replaced by garages.
