I am sure that the term "circuit overseer" will be gone soon. They seem to be changing vocabulary and the presiding overseer is now the "coordinator of the body of elders" and all "district overseers" will be gone in a few months. They used to be called "Circuit Servants" but they will never re-hash an old term so they will make a new term. Even if it is unnecessary it gives the false impression of change=progress so I wonder when it will come. They snuck the new district overseer modification right after the watchtower study about all the progress in the last 100 years so l guess that when they have another watchtower like they then they'll send out another letter about another change. I wonder what the new title will be?
The End of Circuit Overseers

Whatever it is I bet they will have spent hours and hours talking about it. That's what they do in a men's club.

Just what exactly has been the progress these past 100 years ? Are these people still in it , for real ? Anybody who swallows that line has to be a moron.

It reminds me of when they started calling a bunch of guys Environmental Technicians.
They were previously known as dustbin men.

It doesn't have to be a significant change, just trivial word-playing, such as:
-Circuit representative
-Regional overseer
-Visiting overseer
-Visiting representative
-Travelling representative
-Circuit coordinator
-Regional coordinator
And a more fancy one: Circuit slave
[P.S. To the Service Committee: if you use any of these, I want credit]
