  About what one thing do you find yourself being a real SNOB?

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  you know, to fit in....to be a part of our own family or group and not be a total nerd or contrarian.. we hold our tongue.

  we smile and nod.. but, then....there is at least one thing we just can't go along with because it is too important.. why?

  because we are a total snob.

  How is creationism DISPROVED?

  by sabastious in

  it is disproven.

  but let's start another thread, because this one is being yanked off track again.

  creationism/evolution always deserves its own thread.

  Watchtower Corporation enters new business to help sheeples see that the end is very, very near!

  my dad heard from the co who heard from a do that heard from his brother-in-law that heard from the friend of a governing body's wife, that the gb is getting very concerned that "the friends" are losing sight of the nearness of the panda-petting paradise.

  many of these friends are also looking too critically at the "spiritual food" provided by the "faithful slave class.".

  don't tell anyone else, but i hear that the gb has begun testing something new on some of the sheeple.

  Data dog,

  I think because you are not sure yet the best thing would be to go to your local community college and sign up for a class- just something you will have to take no matter what- like a science or English or something.

  Then you can take advantage of their career center. Most schools have a career center that will let you take some tests for free. You might want to take a career inventory test, this helps you identify what you might like to do and what you might be good at- get a sense of how your mind works.

  Another test many schools offer is a personality test like the Myers Briggs Inventory. What- you dont need a test to tell you about your personality- ok sure, but seriously sometimes I have tried jobs that are far outside my personality comfort zone and the truth is i am certain kind of person- its just the way it is and Im not gonna fight it.

  Taking tests this way is better than doing them online where most are scams. But here are links to two sites- these are the quick and short versions, overall it is very broad but maybe it will help.

  a good articleabout choosing a career in the nytimes:

  Good Luck!

  ps I relate to your story because I know and care about someone in the same spot as you. It will not get easier as you get older. Make a change now! :)
