Like it wasn't bad enough sitting in uncomfortable seats for 3 days! Now, you have to watch it at home. Well, I guess you could just say you watched it. lol Is WT going to be monitoring each individual who is watching?

My spouse was "encouraged" to reach out to be a MS. He kept his hours, just below the radar (6-7) and the CO wouldn't allow him to be one. Funny, how he intentionally kept those hours low. lol

by minimus ini hope that within the next several months we will get back to some type of normalcy.
will restaurants ever get filled again?

It will get back to normal eventually. It depends on where you live. Northern states are still in lock down. Here in the Southern US states, the restaurants are starting to pick up and the beaches are full.

"He told me 10 years ago that he felt he would die in this system. So deep down there are doubts in his mind."
We had a family member (70's) tell us the same exact thing just a few years ago. She still holds true to the cult but there are deep deep doubts. She will never admit the doubts to us, now that she knows that we are out for good. She doesn't want to add that "feather in our cap."

So sorry to hear of your loss.
It is interesting that your brother has seemed a bit humbled. It makes you wonder if some of these active JW's are questioning their very beliefs. The end did not come, the way they were promised. Sad!

It's sad that so much fear is used. Our still in family is shaking in their boots. They know fear works and they use it every chance they get.
There's four people in this house that will NEVER "come back."

How service is being conducted with the zoom meetings
by newsheep ina friend of ours who is married to a jw said that this morning for service everyone who was on zoom got to do a call while the rest listened in on the call.
there were thirty-one this morning listening in on one who would call someone to preach to.
shouldn't the person they are calling on be warned first that there will be so many listening in on their phone call from the zoom meeting.

Yes, WT will NEVER help you financially in any way. This was a wake up call to my spouse and I back in 2008. We experienced a lay off. We never expected any financial help but it would have been nice if the Elders in the congregation asked how our family was doing. Besides one Elder, not one other Elder ever asked. These "gifts in men" failed miserably! Now, I appreciate what they didn't do, it actually woke us up and got us out of this miserable cult!!!
