If I'd known that there would've been that much interest in the book I'd have grabbed a handful of them on my way out of the Saturday session as compensation for sitting through that tripe.

Eight Days Vacation per Year
by Satanus inhow much vacation do you get per yr?
according to this article, hard working americans get 8 days off.vacations are being downsized by the same forces that brought us soaring work weeks: labor cutbacks, a sense of false urgency created by tech tools, fear and, most of all, guilt.
managers use the climate of job insecurity to stall, cancel and abbreviate paid leave, while piling on guilt.

I get the equivalent of 21 paid holidays, three weeks (15 days) of vacation time, 2 personal days, and 12 sick days off a year.

Is there any correlation at all between being "in good standing" yet "inactive" as a Jehovahs Witness?

My JW Husband Got a "Privilege" Back - UGH!
by worldlygirl inmy jw husband came home from his meeting yesterday a little later than usual, and when i asked him where he had been, he said he had to meet with the elders after the meeting.
well, it seems that even though he is reinstated, he has to ask for each of his"privileges" back one at a time.
nothing like prolonging the agony!!

It didn't start again afterwards!

guess that was indicative of the material presented. Guess it wasn't so "lifesaving" after all.

They acted quickly though when they were caught in bed with the scarlet-colored wild beast.
Only in regards to the act of "pulling it out" and getting the hell out of the room...
Like the busted man whose wife just walked in on him and his mistress, the WT still proclaims that all didn't see what they actually thought they saw.
(with pointed finger and stern look to the flock)------"I did not have......sexual relations.....with that woman....the WTS........"
And just like Clinton...the WTS' left it's stained DNA upon history for all to see.

Crackdown on Inactive ones?
by ScoobySnax ini know i'm probably a bit behind here, but i've just read from another site, that the wt has "ordered a crackdown (via the co's to the local elders) on inactive ones........." where's this info come from?
and can someone explain exactly what this means?

If it didn't come from Brooklyn, they would never have tried to see me in March.
I'd have to concurr.
It was almost to the day of the mandate that they showed up at my door when I haven't heard a peep from them in about 8 years. If it weren't for that mandate, I probably would've never heard from them save the occasional activity I reluctantly attend with my wife.

What do you do for a living ??? Would the elders make you quit your job ???
by run dont walk inthis one is my biggest pet peeves.. growing up in the borg, i had a hard time finding any job, let alone a decent paying one.. i had to quit many jobs because my parents said "i was missing out to many meetings and field service.".
but how come the elders who worked at ford, chysler, gm, or any big factories, that worked shift work, and missed meetings every three weeks consistently for decades, and that was okay.
the response i would get was, "well they have a family to raise and look after.

I REALLY BELIEVE many parents in the borg do not want their kids to be overly succesful or more so want their kids to rely on them. (i have seen this many times).
I've seen this myself.
A JW relative of mine has managed to sabotage every positive thing his kids have tried to do with their lives; no working non-approved jobs that interfered with any meetings, no school, nothing. Although they have managed to graduate from highschool, they have zero social skills, no homemaking skills, don't know how to wash their own clothes, cook, have no concept of what or how they'll suppport themselves and no concept of money management, apart from asking mother may I. He tells them all the time that they shouldn't worry about working, the new system will be here soon; that they should look for high paying jobs that will give them OJT so that they can marry in the truth and pioneer. Both are in their mid-twenties and are resigned to staying at home indefinitely for the foreseeable future and anytime anyone tries to encourage them to grow beyond "sucking off the tit" he views as a threat to his authority.
They're basically warm pieces of meat that he continues to use as tax deductions.
What a waste......
