COST CUTTING IDEAS, STOP SENDING THE BIG GUNS TO TWO DAY CONVENTIONS. YOUR IDEAS?
by AvocadoJake init can cost up to $3,000 to fly a sister and her husband to give a part on the circuit assembly, wine and dine, and house in a nice hotel.
the district conventions are not cheap, nor are they really productive, the message is lost so quick.
there has to be a way to get more bang, for your buck!

A savings of tens of millions of dollars for the organization and probably five hundred million or more, for the sheep. Why should the DC, be the sheeps only vacation? Try sitting in a hot stinky stadium, with insane heat, babies crying and humidity!
Cost Cutting 10 points!
Sheep friendly without fleecing the flock! 10 points! Good Post!
Average daily rate = Number of Rooms x Hotel rates, plus food, dinning, gas and helping old or insane ones attend, can't put a price on this.

Mormons walk, ride their mountain bikes or drive their old white Sentras to where the spirit guides them. No territory or organization, just ride till you see some old lady or some interesting artifact (Lawn Gnome.) on someone's lawn, and stop and preach.

How much cash does it cost to send a CO or DO on a International Convention? Money could be spent on building Halls instead of bringing someone from New York to dedicate a building. Do you have any serious cost-cutting ideas you would like to share? This is a brain storm session, serious comments are appreciated.

How I Know The Assembly Parts Are Made Up
by lovelylil inwe had a co looking for a certain experience for an assembly part coming up and the elders in my hall at the time sent him to see me, since i usually had good experiences out in field service.. anyway, after speaking with the co, i was sorry to inform him that i did not have an experience that suited the type he needed.
he told me that was o.k.
because he could use me anyway for another part.

If we can get a rights to a card board standup Starbucks coffee stand, the parts would be more realistic. The old timers knocking on the doors, while the new progressive 18-55 year olds, are great at spinning their wheels. Effective ministry, is that a fuel cell powered car, that runs on java?

WT Society Appoints Elders/MS Based on " Functions " Performed - not ....
by flipper in........... holy spirit or any " fruitages of the spirit " like love, kindness, mildness, meekness , etc.
shown by men considered for elder or ms positions.
qualities or true positive character traits are not that important to the wt society in appointments of these men in jw congregations.. no, the real " qualifications " that a jw man needs to exhibit is being able to report 10 hours a month in knocking on people's doors offering wt and awake magazines !

Elders who donante time (construction, equipment and money.) can get away with more, than the average janitor. If we had a audit of who read all the spiritual food, I belive at least seventy percent would be hungry. Sisters have to highlight the busy elders Watchtowers and householders ask, "hey what is this article about? The elder says, I have not had time to read it, but you will enjoy it." Back to Hall personalities, If sister weak accuses, Most High Elder, brother Largess "Give till it hurts." of some type of misconduct, he is able to steam roller her, into a flat pancake. If Brother Troll decides to screw with servant Fred7777, Fred7777 is screwed unless he has stored unrighteous riches with the CO, DO or high up. Flipper, would the WTS appoint inept, incompetent or 'Peter Princle.' brothers through the ranks? Since 1970 I have seen too much, uneven appointments, next we will hybrid the mormon doctrine of "Baptism of the Dead" will be 'Appointments of the Dead.' The Spirtually dead to Jehovah appear wonderful to men. Billy, how many inept brothers did you see appointed, during your tour of duty, at Bethel and back to the DMZ? Our Halls. (Disturbed Mental Zone.). Flipper why do you think most of the COs are out of touch with the flock? They don't have to work in the World, don't have to worry about healthcare, don't have to worry about making their payments. The COs biggest concern is how to present guilt, in a new, efficient and lasting manner. The CO asked the brothers at the Circuit gathering, "How many of you want to be an elder?" out of two thousand people, five hands went up! If your scraping the bottom of the congregation barrell, your bound to scoop up some pond scum, with that fresh water.

What if someone worked at a pharmacy and knew many of the friends who were getting their scripts filled? Happy loving friends who take Seroquel, Cymbalta, had to be sedated with Haldol, used Depakote, Prozac, Lexepro, Wellbutrin, Paxal, and have problems waiting for their refills of Valium, Xanax and Ativan? Friends who are walking Zombies from the medications they take, are they the M.D.C class you speak of? You being the Scottish dective should figure out what is going on. Why is there such a need for these medications with the "happiest people on earth."?, before 1985 the WTS refused to acknowledge depression and hated the thought of the friends going to therapist and shrinks. The nominal christians were sending their flocks to shrinks and therapist and our poor depressed souls were waiting on the new light. The "New Light" theory, is starting to drive, even the most zealous friends to doubts. Why did the Awake or Society have nothing to say about Harold Camping (USA DOOMsday Preacher but he was a kind man!) and warn us of Harolds false ideas? You have no problems with these issues, or are you just refusing to see? You have not answered my question (under a previous thread you created.) on the pedophile who abused my family, and was not caught until fifty years latter. Why did I suffer from this evil act, were the spirit appointed elder testing me, ( I know Jehovah God and Jesus Christ had nothing to do with this, I blame those in charge!) or was the Society wrong to ever have appointed a pathological predator, even though his sin was secret? I cheerfully await your kind response with details.

Has anyone here actually convinced someone out of the truth here?
by bottleofwater ini'm talking about even people in their own congregation, or even a simple comment at the meeting that shut people up..

James, what were the grievances you and the fifty in Ok. had with the Organization? Can you share or is it a sore subject, I am in the learning phase, still trying to figure out where I am in this life. The evil I have seen, fought against, just got brushed under the carpet. Many of us have been on a waiting list, decades long "waiting on Jehovah." to remove wicked men who serve as valuable assets to the Halls. Money, gifts, and skilled time of those in charge, are forgiven quick, while those 'other sheep' can be kicked out with ease! Your story might help shed more light to us on the side lines.

All JWs have a WheelChair John or Housebound Hillary story to share, I laughed my arse off at your story. Hey Gio, Is mickey still alive and well? I heard the DOs and COs are going to buy "Starbucks Chairs and Decor." to make the field service experiences look more real.

The Circuit parts are more of a staged reality tv show.
The brother who cut back work to pioneer, too bad I knew his situation well.
He filed bankruptcy, cut his hours back to show the Bankruptcy judge, he was only making the bare bones wages. His boss was enraged he was only working twenty hours a week, when his job demanded fifty hours per week. He was able to weasle out of $600,000 of debt, by being a Circuit Star Pioneer.
Brother J was on stage about the life of a pioneer and the self-less life he was living. Facts: Brother J was sending the newspapers Apostate literature trying to destroy the Organization, and he is being used by the Slave? Brother J was dealing in stolen goods, on the public dole and liked to play poker with the best of them.
Sister A's part She was a pioneer in San Diego who preached to the Hispanics with the highest zeal. She spoke no Spanish, was schizophrenic and had severe emotional problems.Are the Circuit Stars real? You be the judge!
