  Distrust

  by Gorb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since the begin of this millennium, when i became pimo on the way to pomo, i started higher education and made some promotion that lead to a higher management position.. i'm a regional manager now, acting in a management team and stakeholder manager.. in this position, we do intense feedback, coaching trajects et cetera, that goes under the waterline.

  a issue i have to deal with is distrust.

  i made an analyse of myself and found out that i don't trust the intentions of many of my stakeholders.. i want to do something about this, to become a better person and making further progression.. could it be jw upbringing related?

  @lauralinn & others, thanks for the advise. This is a real help for me, and a start to overthink the issues amd the fact that I can make other choices.

  Thx!!

  Reddit thread about Bethel Reducing Headcount

  apparently, the downsizing is still happening and from what i read those let go are over 50!.

  sad because these people expected to be lifers.

  now they have to make their way in the world at an advanced age with no education or desirable skill!..

  In the Proclaimers book we can read the way how Rutherford treated Bethelites.

  The culture at the HQ has always be toxic, see the books of Raymund Franz.

  Every fairy tale has his dark side.

  How does this risk affect the Bethelite? A constant stress because of keeping the status or job? Also stress for a couple? Could be killing at the long term.

  Do you recognize this issue?

  Did you find a way out?!?

  I have the intention to go into therapy. Do you have some advise what helped you?

  perhaps we could post the pictures the wt have presented in their literature that depict their version of paradise here for comment/discussion:.

  from: spirits of the dead​—can they help you or harm you?

  do they really exist?.

  Beards and in the case of woman, trousers, are not spotted yet in future paradise.

  Warwick sits on $70 billion?

  by LaFrancia in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  70,000 real estate properties at an average value of $100,000 and perhaps we can say (no one knows for sure) that warwick sits on $70 billion in real estate value.

  in the video (deleted by jwborg but available on the avoid.jw website) of the 2018-19 coordinators' committee report (english) shown to all congregations at the mid-week meeting, we find several curious and interesting indications:.

  - at minute 6.52 seconds you see some data .

  With property a lot is possible. They could mortage it for other investment.
