    Hi y'all!!! I was talking to my best friend tonite! I was telling her about this forum and how I've met really nice people here who I can relate to. We have been friends for a very long time so she knows my JW history. I was telling her how to discourage JW's from coming to her door and we were having a good laugh about it! Well no lie, she says to me! Oh when I see somebody coming down the street with papers and a cheap suit I know it's JW's and I just don't answer the door! I was LMAO! Papers and a cheap suit. I said, that is priceless. I'll have to remember that! I recall somebody saying something about cheap suits in a thread and it made me laugh so hard. She hates JW's because she has seen all the crap they've put me through in life. Anyways I thought it was funny and I thought I'd share it with you for a laugh. It's free, right!!!! RHCP

    Hi RedHot,

    When my brother and I were young my dad would buy us a suit each year. We would wear the same suit to every Sunday meeting for the whole year.

    Thanks for reminding me of those times.

    To be honest the whole suit thing wound me up more then anything.

    I used to work in high-fashion menswear when I first started going to meetings. And although I was a good little JW, and would do anything I was told to do. I just could not bring myself to wear a suit.

    My solution was to wear mix and match jackets and trousers, at least that way you could be a little more individual.

    The flack I got for this was ridiculous.

    Did any one else have this problem?

    I remember thinking at the time, when my sins were being highlighted, your suit is made of nylon it?s creased has never been washed and is too small for you?but I suppose it does conform.

    My husband has to wear a suit for work, so he ended up wearing a suit everyday of the week!!!!!

    Sometimes hed miss field service on a Saturday cos he just couldnt face putting one on, on his day off

    And he used to complain about having to shave "every"day I really didnt understand, but then I wasnt a very understanding person when I was in the troof
