It's funny I never really considered myself a kiss-up and actually growing up a witness always considered myself more the other way. The funny thing is though when I was newly married (at an all too early age..what a shock hah) we had a CO visit and I somehow ended up working with him in service one day and he politely told me that if wanted to advance in the organization it would probably be a good idea to start by getting rid of my Jeep Wrangler and getting a car more suitable for service. I was very surprised at this but more surprisingly was the fact that I actually did it, Don't ask me what I was thinking. Obviously I wasn't. I was trying to impress the CO and my wife was always on my case to do more in the congregation and I guess that's why I did it. Well needless to say because I am now out, that that gesture didn't change things in my heart. My wife actually cheated on me ironically and she was DF'd years before I left. Thought this was a pretty funny story on the Kiss-Up subject.
