Damn.....that Vid sounds like some straight Bull Shit!! Sounds like it's after that drama they had about 4 years ago. The JW got a job, moved out and stayed with a fellow JW "friend". He got in some trouble after going out. Instead of there being a designated driver....he let his friend drive intoxicated and they end up crashing and going to jail for a DUI. Story is similar.

@Disillusioned Lost Lamb I did remember seeing a young Female JW and she didn't look too happy. It does suck being at that desk on a Wednesday afternoon.

just now reading the comments LOL. I wasn't there for long, thanks to their new kiosk for quick registration renewals. @Wha Happened? Yes it's the Culver City one. I probably should have complained or at least made a bad comment about them. There WAS a FEW people talking to them. They were setup outside, not too far from the entrance. I wish I had one of those stank bomb pills to throw a few around their table LOL

So, Whats the real reason JWs are no concessions open at the DC and are discouraged from supporting nearby vendors?
by BU2B inso ever since they discontinues the food service at the assemblies and dcs, jws have been "lovingly encouraged" to pack a light lunch to eat.
the secretary at the hall that i am held hostage in said during the service meeting that even a sub would be too heavy to eat, and that a light salad was the best option.
what do you fine people think is the real reason why, in the absence of food service, jws are told to not leave the building at lunch?

I don't know either LostGeneration. Might have been a act to "discourage" from getting too many OJ's. Another thing.....the turkey sandwichs used to be hammered with mayo. I hated them for that reason

"Even 20 years ago that wasn't much. ... Oh and the Cheese danish in the AM, damn those were good. Maybe if they brought that shit back I'd become an JW again.........NOT!" LostGeneration
Man you had me rolling LMAO! Damn, I remember those Sara Lee Cheese Danishes too! I was soo HAPPY to get to the DC's and CA's in the morning JUST for those Danishes. The cheese danish and those ice cold and partially frozen orange juices made my day. Come to think of it, that was the ONLY reason I like going as a kid. Oh.....maybe the Ice Cream too that was thru the soft serve machine at the Woodland Hills assembly hall. I think I was one of the main reasons they stop serving food. I use to abuse the food provision LOL. About 3 cheese danishes and maybe a apple one also. Then for lunch.....A chicken sandwich, pudding, and those Shasta sodas. LOL those were the days. I might come back as a JW just for that......but leave and go to my car for a nap before each program!

He asked me if I go to church and I tell him about my background as a former Witness. Surprises me, when he tells me that his father is a JW and he was raised in the borg until he was 16. He said that his parents had split and he lived with his mom shortly after. She then started taking him to church. Great for him LOL, since he never got baptized and has lived a normal life. Well.....fast forward to today, when I was talking to the co-owner after getting some supplies for work. He asked me about customer service for the job and if I felt comfortable talking to people. I told him that I had no problem, since I've done sales for a short time, worked at a hotel dealing with guests, and (with tongue in cheek) I am a former Jehovah's Witness. As soon as I said that....his eyes lit up! He started asking a BUNCH of questions about my status as a JW. I started to worry if he was one, because he asked me if I was inactive. A Oh shit moment. I was thinking I screwed up with too much info. Well....WHAT A SIGH OF RELIEF when he told me that HIS wife was a JW and that he had stop going to meetings himself. He said that his wife had pressured him to go for a few years and he couldn't do it anymore. She was raised a JW and married him after she left the borg for a while. She went back to the borg after her sister had died and she became "really spiritual". Fortunately for him, he wasn't baptized and he could still have a good relationship with his wife. He said that he didn't believe in a lot of things that the JW did. I told him about some of things that made me stop going. I mentioned the Conti case and this website. He was surprised and seem eager to know more. I'll give a update in a little while

"The END is soooooo close"
by Phizzy ini notice reported in a number of posts that this seems to a bit of a mantra with the dubbies now, more so than ever in the past.. is this because they are getting desperate for the life they live as jw's to change ?
they don't really want to end their days with the constant drudgery of the jw life still going on, they want something different, but must "wait on jehovah".
sigh.. i wonder if this is a small opportunity for us to sow some small, niggling doubt, why not ask, when they spew out the "it is soooo close" nonsense:.

"The reason is that He does not want to face reality. That is why JW die-hards persecute any doubters. To leave doubters and faders alone would be tantamout to accepting that they could have a point. That rabbit-hole is just too painful for some to venture down. That's why you must be a ridiculer! There is no other alternative! To admit that theyhave been duped their whole life is not something that most have the inner strength to face. " DATA-DOG
This sums up the reality that JWs are faced with. The Truth or the TTAT is just TOO painful to realize. It's like knowing that there is the ordinary "Wizard" behind the curtain, but being to scared to expose him because of not facing the fact of being soo gullible to believe in the first place. Soo many ExJW have opened their eyes and felt the pain of being duped for soo long. The JW who stay in are just too weak to face the TTAT. So they will defend their beliefs at ALL cost. It's like a group of people who invested their life savings in a business who's product is really faultly. Critics of the product continually make known of the ineffectiveness of the product, but the investors deny it and slander the criticizers. The Investors believe that the money and time invested in the business CAN'T be all in vain! Their product is good! Most JW don't want to know the TTAT. It would TEAR THEIR WORLD APART.
