They would probably worry about who is on hall cleaning this week.
Best comment so far! LOL. Sorry, can't help laughing...
while i'm politely sitting during the meeting today, restraining myself from rolling my eyes as the brother drones on about how "having an independent spirit is devilish in nature" and "independence from gods organization only results in pain and strife", i only have one thought going through my mind over and over.
"what would happen if i pulled out a gun and blew my brains out in this kingdom hall?".
would anyone notice or care?

this is a quick experience i have recently had and i have two questions at the end.. a couple of weeks ago, the dogs were barking at the gate on saturday morning and wouldn't you know it, it was some witnesses.
there was a father with his lovely wife and their young daughter.
the father did all the talking as mother and daughter just dutifully smiled and watched.
Daniel 2:44. Yeah. The famous invisible kingdom scripture. How convincing!!!
i don't think you'd recognise me much at all.
i'm a royal mail postman, i love my job for the early starts and midday finish, the outdoors and the exercise.. i get on with people but i'm quite insular and don't enjoy crowds.
i'm happiest when i've fired up the charcoal and i'm making souvlaki or adana kebabs for my family and a few close friends.

i've been awake now for about 6 months i'd guess and a member here for a couple of weeks.
it's been eye opening to read other peoples experiences on here and i appreciate all of you.
i've noticed in many, seemingly most, of your comments that you were not treated well at your hall or you have had very negative experiences in the "org" so i thought i'd like to share mine.. in all my time as a jw i have to say for the most part i always loved the people.
My experience: Apart from the usual nasty ones (who I stayed away from), many were nice... BUT boring! Beyond "the truth", there was nothing much I had in common with them. Once I started to fade, all was lost
Number of JW's who I keep in regular contact with (apart from family): 0
ok so im a lil late on tellin it.......was busy this friday & sat......πππΆ.
ok so thursday night, eldurr up on stage asking for brothers only...who have skills in construction, electical, and finish work, who were of the ages from 25-35 ..to pleeeeeease apply to help in ....get thisπ " theocratic construction" going on in various parts of the world.. this announcement happened in puerto rico.. many , many, many facepalmsπππππ.
mad puppy.
1. I thought worldwide construction was slowing down, with many projects being put on hold
2. Instead of asking brothers from another country to volunteer & travel great distances at their own expense, isn't it MORE practical to get local help for whatever construction which is needed???
3. If they are in such desperate need for help & skills, why does age matter? And wouldn't being older be equivalent to more years of experience in most cases, thus making one better skilled?
4. Why are sisters left out? Surely there are sisters who are qualified to do such work too!

has any body else heard this that they are asking members of different congs in new york to go and clean at bethel for free,if this is true then it really shows that the borg is short of money and might even be crumbling before our eyes
i heard from a "friend" that a letter was read aloud during the midweek meeting asking people to volunteer to do cleaning work in bethel.
lol.
i really can't think of anything else to say if this is true.. they get more free labor, and they still ask for more more more money!!
