  when you was a jw how many times did you recieve counsel or critisim from the elders.

  i can't think of how many times when i gave talks ( 5 min) #4 that i would get counsel.

  or going in service you should of said this or use this scripture.

  Counting Time..what your opinion?

  by CaptK in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was a dub i use to get so mad trying to get in the national average of 10 hours a month.

  i would work during the week then get 2 - 2.5 hours on sat for maybe 8 - 10 hours a month.

  others like the elders would always be above that average and a lot of the time some of these elders would skip out on vacation or who knows what on half of the saturdays.

  Accepted by the click

  by CaptK in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hello ....has anyone ever noticed that among the witnesses there is a certain un-written rules that you must do in order to be accepted and then it may only last a few years.

  at my hall it was attend all your meetings, be regular out in service on the weekends, give talks in the school, always praise the elders, have proper dress and grooming.

  nobody really cared if you are forced to work meeting nights, going back to school to keep up with your job, not putting in the quota of hours in the field, etc, etc.

  this is unbelievable.

  i was at the watchtower meeting last sunday and one elder gave an answer that jw 's do not have the problems like the cathlic church where the preist are molesting boys or the church has to pay huge sums of money out to abused cases.

  is he not aware what is happening within the jw organization ?
