  What Did You Hate About The Circuit OV.'s Visit?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i think that there a number of things about the circuit overseer's visit that stinks!

  one thing that i hated was how all the elders got together to "shepherd" the flock right before the co's visit.....what bothered you about the week long visit??

  ?

  I hated the CO's visit. They would always corner me and ask the same question.."Why is a fine young brother like you not reaching out for MS?" My answer was always the same "I work a full time job to support my full-time pioneer wife and work 50-60 hours a week, what I am doing is the best I can do". They would leave me alone till the next visit. Another thing I hated was the concluding "guilt trip" talk after the abreviated WT Study. I just shook from being pissed off walking back to my car. Oh! The memories!

  I've had the same observation. The only ones that I saw get busted for "heavy drinking" , me included, were R&F dubs. While I was an MS I always drank before a meeting and never got counceled for it. When I was deleted (due to not measuring up in field service, meeting attendance, and marital problems) The Elders began pressuring me on the drinking topic. When I moved south, I noticed that heavy drinking was very previlent in the higher ranks.

  I feel the same as Czar does, who cares what they do, we're gone and free, thats all that matters. It's just sickening to see the self-righteous hypocrites preach the "hollier-than-thou" crap and not living up to their proclamations.

  Hey Funchback and Gopher..good observations. I especially liked your observations of the Titans. Jeff Fisher made a statement about being shunned from the Pro Bowl..the jist of it was..being represented at the Pro Bowl would have been great, but their focus is on winning the last two games, which they already disposed of Jacksonville rather nicely this past weekend. He said if we win out the regular season our next goal is the first playoff game and take one game at a time. Their first game against Philly was one of the best games this year. They lost their intensity though and got too confident..loosing to Cleveland with 14 point lead and 4-minutes to play. The Titans have their intensity back and they are playing better than they did the year they went to the Super Bowl against the Rams. I hope Oakland gets nocked off early, your both right, Oakland will be tuff for the Titans. Titans haven't beat Oakland since that Super Bowl year.

  Titans vs Giants in the Super Bowl ( I wish...I wish...I wish) alternate prediction: Oakland vs Tampa Bay

  CC

  Giants will beat the mess out of the Eagles! Sorry but they are pressure players and the pressure is more on the Giants. If they beat Philly look at them for a serious run at the NFC Championship and a return to the Super Bowl.
