  Applying for a job, did you tell interviewers that you were a JW ???

  when going for a interview, did you tell the interviewer that you were a jw , and couldn't work meeting nights.

  did you think being theocratic would help you get the job ???.

  or were you the type to take the job, so you could miss the meetings.

  No. Never. I would never have considered it.

  Why let a good opportunity pass me by because of bias?

  Many think of JWs as nutcases. I prefer to labeled a nut case because of my own merit, thank you very much.

  i admit to it (as i'm spraying on my chanel christalle and putting on my make up.

  spent last night tearing through vogue; my mani/pedi appointment is tonight.....).

  no, "admit to it" isn't the correct sentiment.

  I readily admit I will not leave the house without mascara. My eyes are my best feature,and I like to accentuate them.

  I don't often wear lipstick; foundation yes.

  I always wondered why bubble baths are considered a luxury. To me, they are a necessity.

  a common feature of totalitarian organisations is the control of assocation by its members.

  dub r&f are constantly counselled about "bad associations" to avoid.

  the "disassociation" procedure is legendary for restricting the association by its members with outsiders.. political totalitarian organisations too restrict association.

  Gosh, no, precious. It makes you wonderful.

  There is plenty of room in this world for all the different types of women and men.

  I hate getting my hands dirty, btw. And I feel terrible in jeans. I love being dressed up.

  No, "admit to it" isn't the correct sentiment. I can't imagine being any other way.

  What's The Difference Between UK & US?

  by Englishman in

  2. friends

  i'm only posting this so as to get a buzz from looking forward to our trip to joy & steve's place in october.. i last went to the usa when i was 12 years old and i'm keen to know what differences to expect.

  i know that their service industry is vastly superior to ours, someone told me that restaurant staff are actually helpful over there!.

  umm, driving on the opposite side is going to be strange.

  I haven't read this thread, and I don't have to.

  THE FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  

  Philadelphia cheesesteaks

  Philadelphia hoagies

  just for starters....

  Didn't read where you are headed, but PLEASE try the cheesesteaks. You will love them. My ex packed on about 20 pounds the first 6 weeks we were married.
