Definitely sounds like a scheme. WT cult has expertise in that area.

Severance TV Show
by Simon inwe watched the season 1 finale of this apple tv series last night.
what an amazingly well-done show!.
it's a surreal world, but based in our own, and you don't have a clue where the plot is really headed but the drama builds all the way through.. there were some major reveals about the characters and it ended on a peach of a cliffhanger, so if there isn't a series 2 already in production i'll be storming apple hq to ask why.. some of it may give you wts vibes, the cult-like world they live in and the "forced" celebrations for various things, but while some of it is a little "sci-fi" it's kind of believable.. in case you don't know the main premise is that it follows people around their work at a company with a very sterile-like environment.

LOL@Simon
Same here. Definitely a WT WTF moment.
The absurd redundancy of that extra pass & repass ritual was always exasperating watch. Once I officially inquired about it, and was informed (in writing) that the practise was to allow for a partaking scenario... where if a server attendant or the speaker was a known partaker, or may become a new partaker, the emblems had to be served to him. A partaker evidently should not partake on the move as an roving attendant server, and the speaker should not serve himself to partake. They must receive it. Culty rule.
Imagine a server casually partaking as he walks an emblem up the aisle

Now that we have all discovered the ugly truth about Bethel HQ (egotism, betrayal, sexual depravities & suicide)...
As you listen to these governing body leaders resolutely glorify Bethel careers and tease lifelong incentives... Think about the many former Bethel workers that volunteered decades of their life obeying WT only to eventually be kicked to the curb (aka "reassigned") in their older age with a few coins in pocket, and some sent away with health problems.
These WT governing men were either delusionally ignorant of the shamefulness things happening under their nose, or they were deliberately misrepresenting.
If this leaked video is ever lost to time (again) here are some transcripts from that Bethel Entrant culty conditioning by the JW leaders of the 1990 era.
If are not PIMI, their remarks may twist your gut:
Daniel Sydlik00:02:20"If you're new here, you have the prospect of a wonderful future ahead of you."
Daniel Sydlik00:03:25"You are a valuable asset, and your value increases the you are here."
Milton Henschel00:03:55"My job was mixing concrete... mixing concrete. And I mixed and mixed and filled the wheelbarrows, and they never seemed to get enough, but we got the building done. And so, there I was, eh, I was 15 years old at that time."
Daniel Sydlik00:14:29"When I see a young man coming to bethel, my heart within me races up with thanks to Jehovah, because I say: 'my, this man is going to have a wonderful life here at bethel if he just doesn't allow the physical life to disturb him."
Carey Barber00:06:11"Brother (unclear) told us to hurry up and get the covers on the booklets because Armageddon was, uh, coming. So, we hurried up and got the covers on, and Armageddon hasn't got here yet, so..."
Karl Klein00:10:40"But then remember, these people are imperfect. You may be misunderstood or even mistreated or sumpin'." (sic)
Daniel Sydlik00:12:02"And this wholesome family touch is what the bethel family needs, and I think that is what the congregation gives to them."
Lloyd Barry00:12:26"Eh, coming to Bethel enables you to get a specialized education in the field of, eh, uh, pub...lication, and publishing, and eh... eh... being educated, eh, in office handling and administration. But, and above all, eh, having an education, a bible education to, eh, equip you to be a proper representative of Jehovah God, and wherever you're sent in the world."
Milton Henschel00:15:39"I remember some brothers that, I think, eh, when I was first in the factory, I saw them, they'd been here for maybe 15 years already, and they were on the cleaning crew, and 15 years more passed, and they're still on the cleaning crew, but they appreciated it, they were not at all discouraged by that, and I'm thinking I'm not doing anything, because when you're keeping the place clean, you're keeping the family healthy, and when you keep the family healthy the family produces books and magazines. This is why we appreciate all of the members of the bethel family because they're an essential part of the function of this organization."
Theodore Jaracz00:16:05"But the longer one stays at Bethel, the greater the privileges and blessings will be."
John Barr00:16:37"I would say without hesitation, its a tremendous loss if a brother who has been trained to do a job decides to leave bethel. It may be necessary, but if at all possible, I would urge of the brothers who have quiet skills in bethel to remain."
John Barr00:17:44"But I've always looked at it this way: Whenever you receive a direct invitation like that from Jehovah, through his organization, that this is the place that he wants you to serve. And I've never been disappointed."
Lyman Swingle00:18:17"Die with your boots on."
Lloyd Barry00:18:54"Eh, you can appreciate that there is nothing here on this earth to compare with God's organization. There's never been anything, even back in bible times, to compare with what Jehovah has now and what he's doing now."
Karl Klein00:19:08"That this is the greatest privilege anybody could have on earth, be serving full-time with the headquarters of Jehovah's organization on earth."
George Gangas00:19:42"I love to stay in bethel. Bethel is the best place under the sun."
Carey Barber00:19:48"If people go out from here and take up something else, they're not benefiting themselves any, eh. This is the highest privilege we could have."
George Gangas00:22:18"So you brothers, if you are at bethel, love bethel. Brothers and sisters, eh, we are going to live as long as Jehovah lives; and Jehovah never dies. You will never die. You will live forever. Think of that."
Theodore Jaracz00:20:33"Everyone who comes here, they're brothers and sisters related to us in the faith. They're dear to our hearts. That's why we highly esteem this family. We valuate them for what they are. They're the best spiritual assets we have."
