They make a HUGE deal over how the CO is coming and we have to show appreciation for his visit. Did the CO ever do anything special for you during his visit?
Did The Circuit Overseer Ever Do Anything For You On His Visit?

Theh elders wanted him to come and see me last time he came down.....
I didnt go to a meeting since they suggested that to me.
The elders weren't happy with my poor progress so they wanted the CO to come over to my place. I didnt want him to brain wash me further

Generally they came and helped to empty my refrigerator. I paid 'em back though. My ex and I once dropped in to visit a CO and his wife when we were in their town. We knocked on their door right at dinner time and managed to get ourselves invited in to eat.

No, it was a lot of leftovers, many things, but it was all good. As it turned out our visit must have been a blessing from Jehover. They were living in Sudbury but were about to leave to visit congregations in Northern Ontario. They needed to finish off their food because they were going to be gone for several weeks. So Jehover blessed them by sending 2 extra stomachs to help them out of their dilemma.

NO. NOT BANQUET DINNERS. EN COR DINNERS. REMEMBER THE COMMERCIAL? THERE IS SO MUCH FOOD IN THE DINNER THAT YOU HAVE TO INVITE OVER FRIENDS?!!
I just felt under the gun. Really not upbuilt; just torn down for not doing enough. Some c. overseers were just downright mean. I only remember a couple who had normal human feelings. They were always dressed so neatly with very nice clothes and their new cars. Seemed never to break a sweat. Not like us peons. Juni

Once the C.O. convened a Special JC with a few p/t circuit guys and met with the congo servant body regarding many allegations. This went on for quite a few nights and you had to be there to corroborate or dispel what was said by others. Everybody looked on each other as a spy or a stoolie, as brothers came in and out of the library. The door would open and a name would be called out, and that person would go in. Much like a police shakedown. Throughout these sessions I read Scripture and they thought me smug. I knew the house of cards was folding. The CO came to our house once and gave us a list of what they ate (prior). I thought much of Jesus that night with the pair of perfect people. Yechhhh!

Sounds like those secret rooms they uncovered in Saddam Husseins Palaces!!! LOL
