  WATCHTOWER's RTO (Remote translation offices) like this one are million dollar luxury locations

  by Terry in

  more than 60 percent of our full-time translation teams work, not at branch offices, but at remote translation offices (rto).

  why is this arrangement beneficial?

  what equipment do translators need in order to work effectively at an rto?

  Will the ministry ever resume?

  by optimisticskeptic in

  2. friends

  going on 2+ years of no public ministry.

  can't imagine anyone is really enjoying letter writing still or that it's remotely effective.

  i'm a little shocked that we haven't resumed yet but i guess that's what happens when the org is run by a bunch of old people (ie high risk for covid) and a bunch of other sheltered germaphobes.

  Slim. Smiles

  So no dtd, yet. That means carts, buble studies. Returns, informal.

  The letter has to be the least effective method. Followed by dtd every Saturday, then phone.

  We can be sure atlantis will have the official verbose letter soon.

  Meetings and masks

  as it warms up wearing masks at meetings is getting really old.

  the numbers from the cdc don't take justify it in my opinion.

  maybe come winter if things spike again.

  Ours encourages masks to the point of being a requirement despite the instructuons.

  Almost everyone is vaccinated and it is another requirement, but dont ask. Remember, jehovah gave us the vaccine.

  I always hated t h e shakedown for funds. At times we did not have it. If there was a relaxing of rules I missed it. Atlantis would have a directive if it came from the top.

  Is service far behind? Maybe even seeing to visiting some shutins as alluded to in another post--nah, can't count time.

  since i need to keep up for family's sake i "study"(skim, its not deep).

  worship: pray, study ( wt), go to meetings ( formal, not gathering 2 or 3), preach.

  thrn add helping build halls, donating, and since donations go one way only, give material aid to others.. note construction time isn't for service,( but i may have turned in time for it).

  WHERE do I live? Some people call it COWTOWN

  by Terry in

  2. friends

  where do i live?.

  people say: cowtown.

  i say: it ain't.. i've lived in fort worth all but ten of my seventy-five years.. nobody ever asked me why fort worth is called cow town.. i would guess it is self-evident.. how many of us who live in fort worth realize those two words are gleaming with history?.

  Several points: ( from news so can snd will chsnge)

  Perp was by accounts a tranny ( mental health)

  US marshalls were there actively involved

  Small town cops are usually less trained and paid

  There had been 48 or lock downs due to fugitive illegal immigrants being sought. ( cry wolf?)

  Teachers were forbidden to carry
