  ok... so the william sisters have in the past spoken openly about their faith by saying they are jehovah witnesses.

  but do they attend regular meetings?

  door to door ministry?

  They are not baptized so they can say whatever they please and there really isn't much anyone can do.

  Real Estate / Legal Question re: KH Sales / Title Transfers

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  sorry about being a bit lazy and not researching this myself but when there is a real estate sale, as far as i know, this is public information and on record ( at least in most areas i am aware of).. a kh sale would be a public record.. but when a real title is transferred, isn't this public information also?

  .

  i ask this question because there seems to be some questions here that the publishers did not know the title of their kh had been transferred to the big borg.. any thoughts on this.. rub a dub.

  Do You Believe The News Media Is Trustworthy?

  recently a friend and i were having a conversation about the news media.

  he is a democrat but he’s also a very reasonable person.

  i’ve known him for many years.

  If I have the volume turned on, I generally listen to NBC and CNN.

  I also have found that I can watch Fox News without the volume on and really enjoy it. The visuals are far better.

  Cost of Attending the International Conventions

  by RubaDub in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have never been invited/requested/applied to any international convention, other than it happening to be our own convention in new york city where we were already assigned (i think back and maybe this happened two times or so when i was growing up).. anyway, people here keep commenting about the cost to attend; the inflated airfares, rooms, transportation, etc.. does anyone have some actual numbers to provide?

  i realize that the cost of attending a convention in a different country will be affected by some variations in airfare from the departure city but generally how much do these things cost?

  are they comparable to a tour from an expedia, travelocity or other travel site?.

  And what's to prevent anyone from simply booking their own trip and showing up at the convention?

  Room 215 ...

  Absolutely nothing. Face it, over 99% of the people attending an "International Convention" are just the people who would be going anyway, those whose congregations are assigned there.

  Of course some are the locals who volunteer with the tours, entertainment, coordinate local activities, etc.

  But it's just that 1% who actually are the ones "invited" as delegates (I guess they still call them delegates).

  Blondie ...

  THANK YOU for being so unequivocal and clear.

  I agree totally with your comments. I would only add, at you touched on, that if either party has a history of this behavior or it occurs again, then at the very least suspension would be in order if not simply termination.

  I think the fact that the ones calling the boss a MF are "new" employees could work either for or against them. It could work for them in the context that the boss should know better and be held to a higher standard. It could work against them by the fact they are new with little or no track record with the company and from a practical standpoint, easier to fire.

  1). The workers (4 women of color) call the boss a MF for being a racist.

  U N H E ...

  I guess I was not clear. I was just presenting a scenario and asking how a company would handle this situation in the workplace. I was not in any way attempting to add personal bias. I was just asking how this would be handled in your place of employment.

  @Rubadub - your poll doesn't necessarily suggest that the boss' behaviour is racist, instead it may suggest that political correctness has permeated most aspects of our lives, including the working environment.

  U N H E ...

  There was no mention in my poll about the boss being a racist. I was just polling based on the facts as presented.
