LostGeneration: Got it. Let me explain. I'm half way around the globe but the same thing in basically direct translation was hammered on every CO meeting with elders and MSs year after year. The way I viewed this, it was just a way of saying
"Ok we know you fuckers make up over half the time you report and, well, it's even ok with us. We need you, the yes-men, and we need the batshit crazy 100-hour pioneer sisters and we acknowledge that we can't get the both in one person most of the time. But for fuck sake, please understand this: those same batshit crazy sisters need to think that you are spiritual men. So it becomes that you must show your friggin face at least on weekends. If you can't go to preaching, just attend the field service meeting. If you can't stay out even for an hour, just make a few return visits. All in all, goddamnit, do something! Otherwize the sis's will eventually figure out that this is just a corporation with a pyramide scheme in it's core!"
