Night shift at a plastics factory making plastic bottles; tons of static electricity; occasionally during storms we'd get lightning strikes that would blow out the labelling machines (and the labeller running them). Lots of little fires as bottles got jammed in the line and stuck in the gas jet that shaped the bottlenecks. Constantly sweeping up plastic chips and getting static shocks. Running the box maker, getting bitched at every time the line jammed, getting glue all over your hands stacking them, getting plastic chips stuck to the glue on your hands. Banding full boxes and getting your hands shredded right thru the gloves by the metal bands. Having to play catch-up to fill all the other shifts' quotas when they slacked off and didn't fill the orders. SUCKY JOB!

Do you find yorself still helping others??
by lydia inwhen we were "in" we were often told how and when to help out "brothers and sisters".
now that many of us are "out" - do you find that you are still eager to help others in need??.
or are you burnt out due to the amount of time being "forced" helping others before?.

I'm always willing to help someone in need. The difference between cult life and post-cult life is that I no longer feel a need to crusade for some cause. If asked for help or advice, I gladly give it. These days though I am trying to learn to mind my own business unless specifically asked. Not always succeeding, but working at it.
I don't need salvation and I don't assume others need it either. But if I have something someone else needs, whether material things or just plain comforting, I'll willingly share.
It's good to not live under a compulsion to serve. Service has to come from the heart or it's pointless.

Most hated Bible stories....
by PopeOfEruke inyears ago, i had a pet-hate bible story, and it was this one story that actually started me on the path to freedom from the borg-org.. it was the story of lot when he was living in sodom and the 2 angels visited (dressed like men of course).
and the crowd of sodomites were yelling "send out the visitors so we can bonk them senseless".
remember?.

Ignorance of Silent Lambies
by proplog2 inwhat a bunch of wall paper.
99% of the people on this forum are hopelessly believers in one sided non-sense.
i am tired of the abusive language that has been dumped on me by otherwise respectable participants.

Cruel, insensitive, and typically insular in thinking, like all good dubbies.
You said, "They want the jury to believe that an ordinary day in the life of the victim is living hell and therefore deserving of commensurate compensation."
Got news for ya asshole. An ordinary day in the life of the victim IS living hell and therefore deserving of commensurate compensation." Unless you've been one, you have no reason to comment on how victims are affected daily by the effects of their trauma.
You truly are a clueless and heartless bastard, Proplog. Your empathy and compassion are equalled only by your decency. You could put them all into a thimble and still have room for your pointy little head.

Special Dub Words That Make You Go YUK!
by Englishman infor me, the word was "loving".. great "loving" kindness.. great undeserved "loving" kindness!.
disfellowshipping is a "loving" provision.. when the wtbts want their accolytes to swallow another bitter pill, another restriction, another rebuke, another demand on time, the buzz word is "loving".. the "loving" word, is, to the average jw, the same as the mccabe nod is to the salesman.
the mccabe nod is used by salesman all the time to get the prospective customer to agree to something that he doesn't care for too much.

Towing Jehovah
by ThiChi inhey, i just ordered this book, "towing jehovah.
" any out there read it yet?
sounds like a gas........... ""a past winner of the world fantasy award, morrow could easily claim another prize, for the year's most outlandish fictional premise, if there were prizes for such things.

Towing Jehovah is a really good book. The sequel is not quite as good, but Towing is a real hoot. I highly recommend it to anyone not afraid of iconoclasm. It's not the most reverent approach to God .
