I was a regular auxilliary pioneer for 2 years. I did it because I was 16 and it was what was expected of me.

I aux. pioneered once when I was 13 during the summer. All I can remember was the pioneer sisters car we rode around in most of the time had no a-c. That was hell in Miami....

Ahh what a waste of time.
Amen to that!!!!!!!!! At the time, I felt it was a colossal waste of time. Why did I keep doing it? Day after day of riding around in the car, knocking on not at homes all day. Geez! What was I thinking?

Yes.... just aux. pioneered a bit. What a joke. Nothin' but back-stabbing and whining by everyone. I even refused to work with a certain brother b/c he said all my friends were losers.

I was a regular auxillary pioneer for 6 months or so. I full-time pioneered for a year and it was hell. I was pressured to be the "good example" and so of course I did.
Yup..I just loved taking the group in the morning and no one show up. I loved getting chewed out for not having a BS(when the CO came to visit) or not "selling" enough mags. I loved being out until 11 at night so I could make my "time" for the month. I loved it when I had to go door to door while my friends spent the summer at the beach and partying.
The list goes on of course. When I look back it saddens me that I was once so blind and that I had wasted so much time working for this "cult".
Being a JW has caused me alot of pain and sadness
