The only thing that concerns me is how this will affect my wife and her family who we are very close to. So far I have been able to stay inactive and on friendly terms with my wife's JW friends... things have been rosy up until now....
It will very seriously adversely affect those relationships. "Very close" will go to non-existent if your 'status' changes. Bank on it.

NEVER EVER tell a JW about ANYTHING to do with your life. Got that?? (if u wanna remain under the radar).

I guess my question would be, why would you tell anyone exactly who you work for ???
If you are an electrician, engineer, accoutant, etc., can't you just say the "US Government?"
I wouldn't think anyone would need to know more. If they did, I would be evasive.
I don't know, maybe it's just me but as a JW or not, some things are better left unspoken.

Aw crap Daniel.
Ditto what Blondie said.
Oh well, do what you've gotta do.

JWs are the only people, the only "family" that flip out over anything that anyone else would congratulate you about. They suck.

! My brother asked me who the company was. I told him. It would not have sufficed to just say "US Government"

Daniel, you simply CAN'T tell them because they're programmed to flip out. Government= The Wild beast.

Government is only OK for library services.
