  107 was nice. It was all young guys and we handled our own problems. They closed it down around 2003 to remodel it, thats why i had to move. 124 had too many heavies and you would get in trouble for everything. I was way down at the end by that old tiny elevator that got stuck if you moved too much while it was going up.

  G jobs Morpheus. Also parents sent me $100 a month and I had a car and a close congo so I actually made money off having a car and doing airport runs. Gotta hustle to survive, I owed Bethel money most months because I hated most of their food and cooked on a hotplate and convection oven in my room. Lived in 107 till they remodeled it and then was in a nice room in 124. I actually had one of the huge rooms down around the corner in 107 to myself for almost 6 months before Mark Alba finally made me get a roomate.

  They announced disfelowshippings from bethel at the morning worship table. Carey Barber once read one and threw the paper down and said "GOOD RIDDANCE". Hell I was there when they announced the UN NGO from the table. I was there on 9/11. They totally played that like it was gonna kickstart the great tribulation.

  I was there during all the layoffs starting around 2003 when they started moving the factory to Walkill. Saw a lot of lifelong bethelites get the boot. CBGB was a great place to go drink and listen to music. So was Continental, Water Street Bar down in Dumbo had great deals on Monday nights and I would skip WT study to go get 2 for 1 burgers and beers. Pete's was a great bar on Atlantic near Furman that had Ostrich burgers and buffalo Calamari and introduced me to micro-brewers. Touring the brooklyn brewers so many times they started just giving me beer soon as i showed up.

  Gilead meals. I got to drink in the Administration offices because my table foot was one of the GB helpers. I remember one time I think it was Jarez looked a little drunk by the time the gilead meal began and he was running it that time.

  They knew everyone drank that day and my department wouldnt let anyone use forklifts after lunch.

  Housekeepers went through your stuff. Mailroom went through your stuff. Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue got delivered in a large envelope so the housekeepers wouldnt be offended. Me and my roomate once got called home early from work by our home overseer because we had too many decorations out on our desks and dressers and made it tough for the housekeeper to dust apparently.

  Types, anti-types, starting fresh?

  by Crazyguy in

  do you think these changes are being made so they can start teaching the r&f a new set of doctrines?

  or is this just a fly in the ointment just to continue to confuses the masses so they don't know what the hell to think anymore?.

  and if you think its so they can teach new doctrines, do you think their going to go more main stream?.

  They are using this to ease into saying, we will no longer produce or reference old literature, there is no need to keep or read literature more than 5 years old.

  Then it will all disappear from KH libraries and online.

  Does Bethel have any woman Medical Doctors?

  by VM44 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the watchtower does not usually place women in positions of authority.. so, does anyone know if there have been any female medical doctors (any type, md, do or chiro) that worked at bethel recently?.

  the only one that i know of was dr mae j work, but she was at bethel over 70 years ago!.

  When I was in Brooklyn 10 years ago there was one. She treated men and women, just like any doctor. Never treated me though so I can't say much about it.

  Well we all knew it wasn't true but in light of Tony Tightpants rants it may come true in the future!

  If you knew it wasn't true, why the heck did you make a topic about it, that just makes active witness who come here look at it and assume everything on the site is just conjecture and lies?

  Posts like this take people who are starting to wake up and chase them back to the organization.

  In the 80's I was in elementary school, and was working with the CO and some high schoolers. Everyone was talking about graduation, and whether the world would end before they graduated (mostly a year or two. When they got to me, and realised that it was nine years away everyone was like "NO WAY THIS SYSTEM WILL STILL BE HERE!" Of course, this was when the expiration date on the system was 80 years from 1914, before the overlapping generation BS.

  Well, I just ran into a girl I graduated with last week and we not only graduated on time, but she has an 18 year old and a 16 year old kid. 18 year old is in college and the younger one graduates next summer. And guess what? In 20 years, their kids will be graduating too!.
