What made you change your heart about serving the org?
Well, well... I am not surprised. Maybe no one from their "level" has awakened (or awoken?) yet?
Have a look thru AllTimeJeff's threads- some good reading there.
Being of a "higher level" in WT land is nothing to be proud of and
it may surprise you to know the number of former dedicated workers reading here without raising their hand to that question.
When serving the brethren became serving the corporate interests would turn sincere Christians off.
when the impossible dream turned into a real nightmare.
I'm a former IV / pioneer / elder of 20 years. Never had the desire to be a CO/DO or SP/Missionary. Oh, and I served at Bethel for 6 years.
My name tells my story.
Why are there numbers so few? Almost zero? The level of religiosity and kool-aid drinking it takes to become a CO, especially a DO is so high. It's like living inside a bubble, within a bubble, and the bubble is made of steel.
Look at Maximus's threads - Ex - DO

Pioneered , regular not special.
Stayed too long, actually believed them,
then a slow painful awakening and period of grief.
