Getting made fun of in school, and running into a classmate out in service
Man I ran into quite a few friends out in field service. That was really awkward. Thank goodness they were cool about it. I didn't get made fun of at school. Maybe it's because I led as much of a double life as I could. Plus my mom was good about letting me have "worldly" friends.
My major fear was demons. Why do they tell little kids that stuff anyways. That's just cruel man.

demons (as others have stated)
Being at school when the Great Tribulation started.

Not all my familiy members would have Jehovah in their hearts and wouldn't survive to the New System
The first day of the new school year when I'd have to tell my new teacher I was a witness.

I never had real fear of Armageddon or Demons or even Jehovah himself. But I was terrified to go in the service in my neighborhood and having to preach to my neighbors. I remember one time we knocked in a house and it happened to be were a kid from my school lived, I didn't know this. he comes out, looks at me, looks at the sister that was with me and said: "You're a Witness? I would have never thought you were" he turned to the sister and said: "he is the craziest son-of-a-bitch at school, I would've never figure you out as a Witness". I wanted to effing die and I wanted to effing kill him too.
