Did You Have Good Relationships With The Elders?

by minimus in

jw
friends

my experience was that most jws wanted to have an elder “friend” just in case they got into any “trouble “.kinda like knowing that certain cop who might get you out of a jam.

.

of course there was another group who did everything they could to either kiss the elders’ ass or stonewall them anytime they came snooping around.. how did you and the “older men” get along?.

I have a good relationship with the bulk of the body I serve on.

yep... still servin’... on paper LOL

I recently had a textual with, we will call him young elder Jay, and he used several interesting phrases to refer to elders sent in from the branch.

His words last week.

”didn’t think to highly of any of those guys”

”total disaster”

“these bozo”

Regarding the hall

””that damn hall is way too much work”

”I’ll lose my mind”

”those dang stupid stones”

”insane”

”fed up with the crap”

The dubs would be so happy if the hall was gone, and I have heard many comments on that. One sister was quite open, her hubby is an elder, she feels the preaching was BS and the hall too.

The Borg is coming unglued.

I made a zoom shirt. My “Z” for short,

Its an old shirt I didn’t like with a tie I hated. I cut it straight down the back with the tie on it. I stitched the tie in. I put a hook on the back of the collar.

I put it on like a hospital gown and hook it, 3 seconds. Over my T shirt.

Viola. Zoomin’.

Show the face, go dark. Bye bye. Preserve relationships.

The BBC is carrying a program Sunday which will talk about JWs,

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000kww2

At my house, that is what we will be watching.

However, brother Eldernozy texts me that “we” (thinks he’s included me and mine) will be listening to the Friday program on Sunday followed by getting ‘tocovidgether’ post to share.

Interesting... this was at the behest of ‘da branch’ sayz he.

Are the guvy budz thinking that they will keep us away from the tele for the day?

Even though there is only 8 minutes, I think this clip is good for lurkers. Especially Canucks. Everyone knows Kenneth A. Little here, and Kenneth A. Little knows everyone.

{...right Ken?}

Listener

Yes, I have the original tape it was recorded on, and the machine it was recorded on. It's just damn angry that some fool recorded over the rest of it. The first part in blue is Franz. Then 8 min into the tape, there is some silly circuit assembly. Then the last part in blue is the remainder of the day at the 1975 convention. Once I didgitized it, then the visual told the story.

It’s funny, I couldn’t figure out what was going on until I just plain recorded the entire tape track to the hard drive. Then, once I pulled it into OBS software, the graphic told the story. You could see that some fool put this tape on his machine, listened to a few minutes, and then said “I don’t care about that” and hit record. There is a circuit assembly from 8 min 20 sec to past half, and then the 1975 assembly resumes.

There is a drama from 1974 at Tiger Stadium, the previous year, that you just have to hear a few minutes of. I’ll get that ready.
