not bragging in anyway, but i was born-into a family of 'higher ups' im talking co's and zo's..... and there is a room that they set up in the conventions/stadiums called the "chairmans office".

i always have access to these rooms, because im usually with one of my higher up family members who give talks and all that other crap.. anyways, while everyone in the convention is sitting in the sun, eating a slimy, soggy bolognia sandwich, the chairmans office is air conditioned, has a variety of chilled beverages, 'coke, pepsi, diet coke, gatorade, dasani water bottles,' not to mention the 'danishes, sandwich triangles, cookies, cakes, muffins, fresh coffee, and for lunch, pizza, salads, pastas, and lasagna'.

We all have one.

For me its the District Conventions. Not bragging in anyway, but I was born-into a family of 'Higher ups' im talking CO's and ZO's....

and there is a room that they set up in the conventions/stadiums called the "Chairmans Office"

I always have access to these rooms, because Im usually with one of my higher up family members who give talks and all that other crap.

Anyways, while everyone in the convention is sitting in the sun, eating a slimy, soggy bolognia sandwich, the chairmans office is air conditioned, has a variety of chilled beverages, 'coke, pepsi, diet coke, gatorade, dasani water bottles,' not to mention the 'danishes, sandwich triangles, cookies, cakes, muffins, fresh coffee, and for lunch, pizza, salads, pastas, and lasagna'

after you enter the private elevator where an attendent asks you your name, (to make sure your a higher up) then he lets you in and takes you down to a sweet-ass room

they have leather couches in their, recliners, private rooms to 'practice your part' and all sorts of fancy stuff..

AND NOONE in there is listening to the convention, all the higher ups are their laughing and talking about their lives and children, and what a good deal they got at walmart, and all that crap. Its just a social room

Im not going to lie, its nice going in their and using the facilities, but it shows how they favor the higher ups and im sure its all at the 'Donation Boxes' dime"

oh yeah, and theirs a security guard/ attendent guy who blocks the door so only the higher ups can enter. So rude.

Anyways whats your biggest pet peeve?

24,000 Partakers This Time?

by Cameron_Don in

jw
friends

have any been keeping up with anointedjw.coms gentle efforts to help the governing body, and all the rest of jehovahs witnesses, come to realize that there is just one hope for all christians the heavenly hope.

it will be very interesting to see how effective their efforts will have been at the up-coming memorial of christs death.

anointed.com is expecting that the number of those who will partake of the emblems may double from 12,000 to 24,000. .

TeenageInsider

there probably going to invent some reason why theirs an increase in partakers:

NEXT UP:

"THE 144,000 IS FIGURATIVE!"

And the Jw's in the audience will be like:

Still Waiting For the Governing Body To Explain Their New Light

by Cameron_Don in

regarding the governing bodys new light relative to matthew 24:45-47, anointedjw.org recently said the following:.

this new light certainly poses a problem for the governing body.

perhaps this is another reason why they have not yet published a sober and scriptural xplanation of this new light.

Exactly! people in the cong and even family keep saying 'when is it going to be on jw.org?' or 'I WANNA SEE IT IN A MAGAZINE'

somethings fishy in the GB club

$16-18 million GB Temple Tax

by The Searcher in

brothers and sisters all over the world, these inspired words of paul mean nothing - "let each one do just as he has resolved in his heart, not grudgingly or undercompulsion" (2 cor.

9:7) - because the society needs your money!!

essentially this is the situation: there are three voluntary donations boxes in your kingdom hall, one for your own kingdom hall's running costs, one for the kingdom hall building fund, (khbf) and one for the worldwide work.. the latter should be the only one necessary for the org, because by definition the worldwide work encompasses every aspect.

TeenageInsider

I think the months may vary... because a cong i know is 15 cents for 7 months...

What a way to 'give from the heart' when you have to take a vote on it. ;/

Dessert after LUNCH??!!

by rebel8 in

i've always had a real sweet tooth but when pioneering that was the first time i ever heard of anyone eating dessert after lunch in addition to dessert after dinner.. sometimes the few pioneers who cared about their weight would just have dessert for lunch, but i digress.. anyway, where i work we have a cafeteria and dessert comes with lunch.

it's not healthy!

i wish they didn't even offer it, because i have a hard time saying no.
