  By the way I need definitions too.

  This is what I came up with.

  “A Jack” This was someone who is a slacker or lazy.

  “A pot licker” This as an unclear definition but basically the same as “a Jack.”

  “New Boy” This is someone who just got to Bethel and doesn’t know the ropes.

  “Burn out or tour speed” This was a term that mean if people were coming through on tour you would work extra fast so as to impress them.

  “Short time” Someone who left Bethel early before their four year commitment was over.

  “S R” This is someone who is self-righteous a super Zealot.

  “Bad attitude” This is someone who is on the opposite end of being self-righteous. This person has some doubts about the Bethel system and is verbal about it.

  “Company man” This is someone who is staying pass his four year commitment and wants to make Bethel his career.

  “Having someone for breakfast” This can be done when someone leaves Bethel in disgrace, or has been kicked out for some transgression. The “governing body” will inform the Bethel family of this person sins with graphic details.

  “The family” These are Jehovah’s Witnesses who are called Bethelities the workers at the world headquarters.

  “G B” Or governing body. These are the supreme leaders of the organization. They are usually 10 to fifteen in number.

  “The shaft” This is what you could get when you are reassigned to new work assignment. In this case the new job isn’t as prestigious as your previous job was. You are obviously not moving up the company ladder, you are now going in the opposite direction. For example when I was at Bethel, Ciro Aulcino was moved from the writing department to the hand bindery. Of course his new job is still considered “A privilege of service” by the Bethel overseers. These same overseers will tell you there is no such thing as “The Shaft” at Bethel. This however is obviously not true. Just ask Ciro or Fred Barnes if they are still alive.

  “A privilege of service.” This any job they assign to you, no matter how lowly or demeaning it might be. It is your privilege and honor to work on your assignment. However for others this job could still be considered to be a punishment, if they put you there because of some minor infraction. Then at this point in time it is considered to be “The shaft.”

  I just saw his life story Netflix. The series is called "Dirty Money."

  Check it out. This guy has done some really nasty stuff. One of the biggest con man in recent history.

  It's scary what he has hid from the public.

  Do you have JW-related dreams (nightmares)?

  by compound complex in

  2. humour

  greetings, dreamers:.

  i guess it's never going away: daytime carryovers of jw-related stuff seeping into my dreams.. the majority of these dreams take place at conventions but with really weird trappings.

  last night i dreamed i arrived at the site with no books, no lunch, nothing but my car keys.

  Up to a few years ago I had this dream often.

  I would be at Bethel even though I was married with kids back home. Or I would sneak into Bethel even though I wasn't a Jehovah's Witness anymore. Or I would be at Bethel and forget to turn in my 30 day notice to leave. Or I was at Bethel and forget where I parked my car. All of which were of course nightmares.

  No obligation and no we don't have to talk about the Johos when you come.

  I have finished my new book and I'm editing it right now. So if you have any interesting stories about Bethel please yet me know. I hope to have it in print with in 90 days.

  Happy New Year

  Ayahuasca The Soul Herb

  by new boy in

  2. experiences

  i'm writing this tread for the people out there that are still looking for some kind of answers.

  people who feel the void that any organized thought system can produce.

  people who know there is more to this life than our daily routine which eventually will end, when we no longer exist.

  "I have a friend who will agree with that. He took it and later told me he saw Jesus AND Buddha"

  Maybe he saw them because Jesus and Buddha do exist.

  My guess is you have never had this experience.

  Yet you are here telling us what it is all about.

  Wow this sounds like something Jehovah's Witnesses would do. Tell us about the evils of something they have no idea about.

  So my friend try it and then tell us about "your" experience. Until then you really don't have a clue do you?
