Did the bookstudy overseer ever phone you for your "time" and nothing else?

    This happened fairly recently.

    My book study overseer who NEVER calls if I am absent at the meeting, will call me with clockwork regularity at the beginning of the month and ask for my field service report.

    Has this ever happened to you?

    I mean, you could be missing for weeks, you won't hear from your BS Overseer, then he'll call you for your time.

    They suck.

    Yup this is standard practice. It's all about the numbers, especially when the CO comes knocking.

    IP you are one funny drunk elder.

    As obsesses as they are with statistical information..........unless it starts costing them money, it'll never happen.

    We were on the secretary's speed dial. I never turned in my time so he would always call. He seemed very annoyed, but heck, I didn't want to put my lies on paper!

    Once, the bookstudy conductor called asking for my time, and when I revealed that I had no time to turn in for that month, he said "You mean you went a WHOLE MONTH without talking to anybody about Jehovah?!?"
