    No, never – in fact, when I counted up my time, I always rounded down to the nearest hour, unless the tag-end was 45 minutes or more; only then would I round up. Just pathologically honest, I guess.

    You bet i did. I was so miserable at the the thought of knocking on the doors towards the end, I would fill in whatever i felt like. I hated field service. Boring Boring Boring.

    "How many people in the congregation actually get to see the reports?"
    When I was an MS (3 years ago) I got to see them when the CO was visiting. Other than that I had no access to them. I would think all the elders have access to them and I guess comments they make to their wives "share" that information.

    Yes I did. Just a little bit when I was still sincere . . . I would "round-up" my incidental witnessing so that I could report a couple of hours even if I didn't actually go out in service. A lot more towards the end . . . only because there was no incidental witnessing happening for me to "round-up" . . .

    But I never did it big - at most, two or three hours.

    Yes, particularly when full time pioneering in below zero weather! I waited for Jehovah to make sure I was found out....he never did! I felt so guilty about it at the time.

    No I too was too honest and believed wholeheartedly at the time in what I was doing although doubts started to set in as to actions I personally witnessed.

    As for the reports, usually the elder who is appointed service overseer takes care of the reports, gets them ready and sends them out.
