Let’s lovingly cut your gas allowance but now we are lovingly reinstating it no doubt at 2020 gas prices. It was a thoughtful provision for the governing body to cut your wages.
Thanks for the inside scoop Atlantis. I hope some of these full timers wake up.

so apparently robert hendricks the spin doctor of the wt society has been proudly telling news channels how wonderful the wt org has been during the 2 years of the pandemic, checking in with each and every member to meet their needs on a weekly basis.. except, based on the comments of former jw friends on facebook, it's news to most of them since they are screaming out that they were totally neglected by the elders/ms throughout most of that period.
a couple even said that because of being ignored by the congregation during this time, that they have walked away completely.
I got one phone call from the group overseer in March of 2020. Since then I’ve received two texts from him around co visit time. What I have observed from zoom meetings is the elders seem to take a lot of vacations and hang out with each other in the breakout rooms after the meeting.
It’s a club and you ain’t part of it.
the law of diminishing returns states: the law of diminishing returns is an economic principle stating that as investment in a particular area increases, the rate of profit from that investment, after a certain point, cannot continue to increase if other variables remain at a constant.
as investment continues past that point, the return diminishes progressively.. from 1900 through the 1980s, the more witnesses that got baptized and pioneered, the more bible studies that could be had and the more additional witnesses that could join and then congregations would get bigger and they would divide and form in other areas.
but in the 1990s the law of diminishing returns kicked in, particularly in the bigger cities.
During the years you mentioned life was fairly stable in western lands and the internet became widely accessible. People didn’t need religion and the internet exposed the bullshit
i’d like to marry my best friend of 30+ years, turned ‘secret’ girlfriend of 1 ½ years who is a jehovah’s witness, born into it, baptized and an active ‘pioneer’.
our marriage would happen prior to letting any of her jw friends and cohorts know that we are together.
once married she may simply come forward and ‘admit’ or we may wait until it’s found out – one way or the other, the reason for this marriage is not customary – i am hoping that by doing so she can avoid being ‘marked’ or possibly ‘disfellowshipped’ once our relationship is no longer a secret and due to our already being married at that point, there can be no notion from society elders about her ending the relationship.
Get ready to be love bombed my friend. You will be considered fresh elder material.

If they are smart they will report their expenses the same way they report their field service time. Pad their expenses.
since mark sanderson of the gb is never married, does he have his own room at warwick or have a roommate?
.
Apparently Sanderson started partaking when he was 19 years old. He must have had lofty ambitions in his youth or he suffers from delusions of grandeur.

Jehovahs witnesses are poorly compensated commissioned salespeople. Nothing more nothing less.
so i pioneered for 10 years in the 1990's it was 90 hours a month with alot of country driving.
i was shocked when brothers and sisters with full time jobs would park their brand new cars and go witnessing in my 20 year old orange datsun.
i was barely living on $250 a week as a yeah...window cleaner.
The caste system is alive and well in the Jehovah’s Witness religion.
karl klien life story from the watchtower.. "president rutherford had repeated occasions to reprove me for breaking some rule.
(under president knorr 1950) brother knorr invited me to join the writing department...when i told him it did not matter where i served he reproved me..saying when an added privilege is offered we should be eager to accept it...my attitude was due to my health which has always been a problem.
knorr was older we were like brothers with the older brother knorr prone to expressing inpatients to my short comings.
Bethel sounds like a toxic company I used to work for.
i remember reading somewhere a reference to ones at bethel being removed for suggesting that the governing body was the faithful and discreet slave, years before the org.
made this change.
am i wrong about this?
If you run ahead of Jehovah’s chariot you’ll likely get thrown under it.
