Cut back on our work schedule, who is going to pay the bills. Also, sorry but I can't make any contributions to the Kingdom hall because you told me to cut back on my work schedule.

Many times in the past, I've noticed that the ones who are losing tend to get the loudest.

Pretty sure that as they are crunching up the numbers, they are realizing that the trend is for them to go down.
Yes, they can continue to artificially massage the numbers so that they don't look as bad, but at the end of the day, there is only so much you can do. At some point, even the creative ways of counting time will not be enough to keep the numbers afloat.
Them what? Well i'm sure the Org will again resort to creative interpretation to excuse that. In fact, I think they have already. Didn't one of the Governing Body members say recently that the work of JWs is not to bring new converts anymore? Sorta like just run and maintain mode?

They be saying the end of the world is gonna come soon any day now for over 125 years how long do they think this can go on? The Rank and File are getting desensitized to the Watchtower corporation's sense of urgency and not responding like they used to back in the good old days before the internet.
The Governing Body is barking up the wrong tree if you ask me. They will never learn, they got such slow and delusional brains that they can't even see this type of harping is getting them deeper and deeper in debt. They cried wolf way too many times to be taken seriously, Assholes! Bye, bye, delusional thinkers who are in deep denial.

Guilt-mongering was the biggest trigger for my awakening.
One of the pillars of high-control manipulation. (Sorry for being redundant)

I don't mind redundancy.
In fact, I'm so used to it by now, it's almost superfluous.

Isn't turning in a time slip and totalling all these hours proof for the borg to keep their charity status with the goverment? That may be why they keep pounding this idea into the flocks head. Using the fog and bite method works very well for the cult. Still Totally ADD

I noticed numbers seemed a bit odd recently, CO was saying there were 9m active pubs this last Sunday, my mom mentioned 10m when I was giving my confession of wanting to stop my study but the 2018 report had 8.5m, which either means a lot of inactives popped back up or something's off
