Do something that involves tips; for example I',m trying to become an airport shuttle driver part-time so I can make some cheddar every night.
Anything with tips should be awesome as everday is pay day as long as you hustle. Hope this helps...

Sticky situations
by Sammy Jenkis ini was remembering today this situation that i let get out of hand because i was too damaged to let my co-workers and my boss know i was a jw when i was still inside.
it was hard to explain to people something so foreign and out of this world as being a witness and never before had the difficulty been as hard as when one of our co-workers birthdays came around.. i dreaded the moment because i'd played pretty cool and dodged any questions that might reveal my religious inclinations.. but:.
my boss came over to my desk and gave me this card to sign, she asked if i'd like to sign it.

The Watchtower Corporation's Early Business Model
by frankiespeakin in"dupe their readers with scary stories about a vengeful deity, then enlist them into service of selling corporation's printed material for free under the threats of thier own destruction if they neglect selling oportunity of a lifetime, rewards enclude everlasting life sitting on thrones in heaven perhaps even a ringside seat next to mister faithful and discreet himself chucky russell".
sound about right don't it.
hook the reader into thinking he's got to give it his all and go out and sell these magazine in a whole souled fashion or else he will loose god's favor for being a slacker, as caleb's mom told her son:" god loves you(conditionally) if you obey him; and get rid of that plastic magic toy that makes jehovah get all sad and stuff".. russell was a self-righteous religious fanatic business man who went from the haberdashery business, to printing sermons and such, that hooked the poor and ignorant into serving him as the faithful slave/steward and selling his books and magazines, and everything he printed had a biased slant which would keep the business going even after he died.. kind of but not exactly a pyramind scheme;.

What kind of people leave and join religious organizations?
The kind that join are the kind like me, that didn't do enough research before signing their souls away.
The kind that leave are the kind like all of us that for "x" reason left after doing said research.

Londo, thanks for this post- I can't believe they got the WT counsel on tape admitting they do NOT contact the authorities. What a bitch-slap to the R&F that are giving their entire lives for this place.
Really wished he hadn't said anything about the database.. Church HQ didn't supply him with that info for sure.
