I wanted to share a milestone that I am extremely excited about - my field circus report for November!
Hours - ZERO
For the first time in my life, after over 30+ years of going out in "service" - all goose eggs, baby! 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
I was doing one day of token service (coffee shop visits and social visits with a couple of RV's) just to keep everyone off my back, but last month I hit the milestone.
Good for you. I did 0 too - but reported 8.
sounds a lot like me. For the next step...not just irregular, but inactive! It blows me away how I tried to convince myself that I was actually helping anybody with my FS. I love mankind, as an abstract concept, but I'm just not that crazy about people, the ignorance, the rudeness, the stupidity, the misplaced priorities, the apathy. I can do without inserting my life into people's lives when they just don't give a damn.
Congrats! I hope you're doing something beneficial with the extra time you have now...you know, like recreation, relaxation, sleeping, etc.
I can only dream of the day when I'll have the weekends to myself, and that when holidays come I won't feel a bit guilty for not having gone out preaching in that free time. Dreams... dreams....
Congratulations on having the courage and endurance to walk away from it all.

Congrats. Soon, after a few months of getting 00 hours, you can become a regular unpublisher. After a yr or so of getting 00 hours, you could attain the privilege of being an unpioneer, or piosneer, as some call it.

"Good for you. I did 0 too - but reported 8."
LOL. I've done that sort of thing, too. I figure if pioneers can tweak their hours by the dozen each month, then I can count my time discussing God/nature/science with my family or discussing religious topics at online boards like this. It's a lot more productive than door to door, if the goal is discussing truth with people.
What would be a good time for me and Brother Buttinski to have a word with you Leppermessiah?
Prepare for a Sheparding Call!
Thanks everyone!

LOL!!
I am preparing for that one already - although i think they are starting to give up on me.
I had 2 sheparding calls when i started missing meetings, and they havent gotten anywhere, so i am hoping they will just leave me alone!
