Gosh I had a bad experience today as a result of my first job! Are you following me around or what? ANyway there was this nasty manager who is just a bitch and delights in cutting, slashing, reducing staff and such. I left mostly because of her. Would you believe it they made an announcement today to say she is the new manager of community services. I thought I was over what happened but it all came flooding back this afternoon and I find feelings are just as strong today as they were 18 months ago. I have learnt and know to shut up around her, dont say much, dont disagree or let her know you have your own mind and own opionions about things. I have already informed my team leader and new section manager about my apprehensions and that I will not be saying much when she is around. I didn't say too much cause I dont want to colour everyones view of her but oh my god. I thought they were going to expand the services and such we offer, not slash them back further. Oh well and it was such a good job too but mayber I think I will start looking around for something else. Thanks for listening to the vent!

BOLD move
by Puternut ini have been a dub for too long, and most of my ambitions were hindered because of the 'kingdom first' issue.
i never persued the things i wanted to do in life.
and everywhere i go i run into people that i know, and they give me the 'dirty look'.

Ok I am nearly wetting myself laughing with this one! Black and white of course! Not that I am a US citizen or anything and have nothing against the man himself (Not mentioning his political views, dont want to open that can of worms). I was expecting you to ask whether I would save him or take the shot! I would put it on a timer, get the shot, save the man and rake in the mega bucks for doing it!

Question: Let it sit or take it and run?
by dustyb inok, i was talking to my g/f today and she said that she needed to get away for awhile, move to california with her cousin and stuff because she couldn't stand being at her house anymore.
whats even more is that she said that its getting to where she doesn't want to get up for service and she doesn't want to go to meetings anymore and she thinks she's becoming "spiritually weak".
so she wants to move to california to see if that'll "help" her in her current state of weakness.

If its gonna stick and mean anything, she has to see it for herself. If you force it she may end up resenting you or blaming you. If she can see it for herself then the leaving and the adjusting will be better and you will be there for her...her prince charming that always stands by her no matter what. Hope it all works out well for the both of you and she can break free.

They did it again
by freelife inon friday smurfy went in for surgury and it went ok. when i got her home my dad called and was telling me that he was going to have the date of his back surgury changed.
when he got done talking about his surgury i told him about smurfy having surgury that day.
the bastard never even asked what she had done or how she was doing or if they could help out with anything.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{freelife & Smurfy}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I hope Smurfy is improving rapidly and she is okay. Sorry to hear about your parents attitude. Is that the influence of the Borg??? If so, well it actually reflects the so called love that exists in general. Wish I was there to help you both out.

TELL US YOUR LACK OF LOVE STORIES FOR THE LURKERS.
by shamus injesus said, "you will all know my followers by they're works".
in a recent thread that i made, which lie hurt you the most, most posters presented they're arguments, and pretty much all of them said that the "lack of love" was horrendous.
why don't you write out your lack of love stories so that the lurkers can visit and see what this destructive high-control-group (aka, cult) does to the emotional health of sheep who are sick and weak.

I was pioneering and my mum told me she had cancer everywhere and only had a certain amount of time to live. No response from anyone in the congregation except from one elder who said to me "Oh well you will still be able to do your part in the ministry tomorrow wont you". I can tell you I went home absolutely devastated.
The most anyone said was well at least she will be in the new system as she will have paif for her sins when she dies. The worse one told me to cheer up and get on with it.
A few months later the same thing happened to her and the whole congregation supported her and so on. Made sure she had everything she needed. I looked at her and said exactly the same to her and got repremanded for it. When I pointed out that that was the exact words that she used to me a few months previously and compared with the elder the reaction to the same news by the congregation his reply was its different her family are in the truth. I said so because my family are not in the truth it doesnt matter, where is the love in that comment? You are saying that my mothers life is worthless because she is not in the truth? What about showing love to all god's creations and so on. He just went quiet and shrugged his shoulders.
Needless to say I didnt do the part in the ministry and never did again. If only they knew what I was thinking I would of been disfellowshipped on the spot.
In the end it didnt matter what I said or did, jealous sisters ran and tattled everything to the elders. The sad part was that a lot of it was made up and yet the sister was believed. Even when I could prove I was not there at the time and so on, the elder took the side of the sister. THe usualy response was "if you don't like it its too bad, there's nothing you can do cause your husband is not in the truth". In the end I looked at that elder and said well actually there is something I can do and I just walked out and never came back. I have never been contacted by anyone, had no one sheparding etc. Oh but the congregation was so full of love it was rediculous. Another sad part was that this was a common occurance to single sisters in the truth in my cong. Go figure that. If that is an example of how their God loves his creations I would hate to live in a system that depended on that love!

Well I think I might have talked about this on other threads. My last resort was when the docotors had given up on me and my diabetes. I had neuropathy spread like wild fire through me and I ended up loosing all muscle control in my stomach of all areas (usually it affects fingers and toes and feelings). ANyway it affected me so badly it had adverse effects of my heart, my stomach and many other parts of me. I could eat massive huge meals and never feel full becasuse of no muscle control. I ended up putting on massive amounts of weight and got morbidly obese and really deathly ill. So the doctors last resort was to staple my stomach. They could not guarantee me even waking up from the operation. Anyway I did die on the table but was revived and thank goodness it had the desired effect. I lost 68 kilo's (dont know what that is in pounds) and turned my life around. I still have the same problem with the stomach muscles but now I have will power and the incentive to know what will happen if I go out of control again. The doctors have told me there will not be a second time or another chance. That is enough to keep me scared straight!....
My other last resort was to leave my husband of 18 years after he tried to kill me several times and had reverted to a child and this is a very long story but leaving him was the last resort of long travelled road and trying many alternatives over the 18 years but in the end nothing else worked.

Heck Celtic what do you want us to say then. Your right mate you are useless????? What a total load of shite. No one, apart from my x, is totally useless. How do you take a long walk?? ONE STEP AT A TIME MATE!
You will never do anything sitting on your rear postulating useless babble and tiffle or whatever it was you called it. SO if you want to take a long walk off a short plank, then do it, don't just think about it!!!!!!!!!!! No that didn't come out right.
If you want to take a long walk then do it. Here is how. Get off your computer chair, put some money in your pocket, put some good, comfortable clothes and shoes on, dress according to the weather, take some water with you and put one foot in front of the other and move yourself. Hey dont let the door hit your butt on the way out! The forum will still be here when you get back!
