WERE YOU A "GOOD" PUBLISHER? (page 2)

Scarlet

I faithfully went out my one Saturday a month to keep me from having 0 hours. Did you know if you went out the last saturday of one month and the first saturday of another you got off for like 7 saturdays in a row before you had to do two in a row again.

I was a horrible publisher.

I never did a return visit in 4 years because I didn't want any bible studies. All i did was give out WT/Awake? mags. Collected at most 2 bucks in contributions.

Scarlett it would have been a hoot at the service meeting if you related your service technique during the meetings. I think you have a brilliant mind. I wish I had thought of that. I remember having an old '69 Dodge Charger R/T with a huge 440 cubic inch engine and a rotten exhaust system. I would come roaring into the KH parking lot rattleing all the windows late for another meeting. The looks I would get. I learned the tip of shutting off the engine and coasting into the parking lot from a block away. Those were the days.

Alchemist If it is truly to go out the least amount possible and still look good you think about these things. I would have worked in service with you. I never wanted to work with anyone In service because they would want to keep me out more than an hour.

Truth you asked for Donations??? I never felt comfortable with that so I just told people they were free. I also never did return visits. I would write them down but never went back. I never had a bible study.

I'm damn good at everything I do.

Yes, even making a fool of myself.

At first there were glorified months when I was a very good publisher. Ahhh, the blessings of distributing all those mags....

But then I started to dislike having my feet and fingertips frozen due to the cold. And then I started to dislike getting sunburned and sun-headaches. I became a bad publisher, Went out twice a month for one hour or so, no more.

I was an excellent publisher. On several occasions, I went out in the ministry for over 3 hours and managed to speak to absolutely no-one.

Ah, those special countryside efforts!

Well I was one of those GOOD!! publishers, you know, the kind the elders were always on the lookout for. My wife, daughter and I were sooo regular in service it was, now that I look back on it, sickening. To miss a meeting or field service was akin to heresy. Oh, and did the elders like me. I wasn't baptized 6 months and they wanted to reccommend me for MS. I felt really uncomfortable with that though so it went nowhere; but I would frequently fill in as a BS conductor when the elder assigned to our group was away, even though there was a MS who was supposed to be his assistant. My wife would often Aux. Pio. and was very hospitable to others in the hall. Yes indeedy, we were some FINE, GOOD publishers alright. Too bad we were morons too. Oh well, que sera.

CIAO4NIAO!!

I really hated the ministry, so I did as few hours as I could get away with at home. The ministry was the first thing I dropped when starting to have doubts. I never understood why we were going door to door like 2000 years ago while we have so much better ways of reaching people ( think: media ). they did so in the past using radio and television.

I was truly a pathetic publisher, a kingdom loser. But when there were no other males present I would be asked to conduct the service meet. The Mighty Pioneer Sisters would have to step aside. Kind of makes you think what the "Kingdom Arraingement" (TM) thinks of women, that is "the least of men is better than the best of women." Their thoughts not mine. Yes Scarlett I never asked for a contribution. How tacky. I think many don't and have never asked either. It's bad enough you got to go out and look like a fool but to ask for donations like some Hari Krishna at the airport is too much.
