Another rare photograph of Chitty. In this photo, we get a glimpse of Chitty leaving the area after inspecting lunch provisions at the district convention. It is unknown where he was going in this photo. Whether Greenlees visited with the attendees on this day is also unknown.

"Because most brothers who were single and under the age of 45 had manual labor jobs.
Cleaning. Construction, auto repair etc...
In the home section of Bethel and some area of the factory you could wear work clothes but coming yo the table smelly or unkempt was a huuuuuuuuuge boy no. Like huge."
Wow. So a construction job where you have to stop what you're doing (at midday, just as you're hitting your stride/rhythm). Shower, dress and go to a sit down lunch. Then go back to work? Haven't they heard of lunch boxes? How the hell did anything ever get done?

"Many rooms had showers in their rooms but no one could make it to their rooms from work to shower before lunch."
Why did you have to shower before lunch?

"One day in the locker room of the office complex just before lunch (circa. 1997 - everyone showered in an open shower. There were no doors in a square room, with 6 shower heads on each wall)"
Was this the norm at Bethel? Group showers? Was being at Bethel like being in a freshman college dorm room with community bathroom facilities or was this in a gymnasium area?

There are many anecdotes that i've heard repeated where it's said that homosexuality was rampant at the Watchtower Headquarters. There was a story posted on Reddit about a number of people being forced to leave due to incidents in a sauna.
Many years ago, I found a webpage detailing subliminal or hidden pictures in Watchtower publications. Many of the images looked vaguely like a man's private parts. At the time I thought the suggestion was ridiculous even for the Watchtower. After all, we can often be fooled into seeing 'faces' and whatnot in random cloud formations.
Now I think there may be some truth to it. Perhaps it was a way for those with homosexual tendencies to signal one another without actually saying it. Perhaps by commenting on the fine art work on page 19 of the latest Watchtower. If that page had a hidden penis, then they would know to meet the other in the sauna.
