The guys who are doing the jobs are either MS or "reaching out" for the "privilege". They're doing the jobs because they're "being tested as to fitness first".
I must have been very unfit.

There's a lot more to it than just putting in the time. I did it for 20 years, and I pioneered for over 2 years and aux. pioneered many times. I had all kinds of jobs in the hall too, but I never made it to ministerial servant. I think it was because I didn't play the politics well, and I'm not very good at kissing elders asses.

Although a JW, I never wanted to marry a JW
by JH ini remember when i joined the jw's about 18 years ago, i was single just like today, and i never really wanted to marry a jw.
i would have liked to get married, but not with a jw.
i believed in their religion, but that was the spiritual side of me.

When I was dating a JW she insisted that I study the "Family" book with her.

I always felt that a JW spouse wouldn't be sex minded enough.
That was my experience.
Also, I wouldn't have liked talking about JW stuff all day long, all week long, all year long.....at home.
Yes, that can be nauseating. My ex could talk about JW stuff constantly, and she thought I was "unspiritual" because I wanted to give it a rest sometimes. Some people don't understand that there is more happening in the world than just the stupid kingdom hall.
Now I just need to find some nice young babe - a single version of Brooke - who doesn't mind eccentric old buggers like me.

Hmmm this smells like big business in operation here.
Yeah, just one minor difference. many big businesses will give you a severance package when they let you go. Not the WTS.

TIME WILL TELL (Did you fake your hours in Field Service?)
by Terry ini know for certain that brothers in our congregation often lied about their time on field service reports.
(yes, we had to fill out quota reports back in the old days).
one brother, harry, would dump magazines in the storm drains!

You have made 16 post(s) in the last 1 day(s) out of your limit of 75.
You can currently post 59 more which will increase in 1 day(s) 2 hour(s) 49 min(s) when your oldest post expires.Here's my report for the last day.
It's more accurate than any field service report I turned in, and shows much more zeal than ever before.
Sometimes, as a JW, me and another guy would go straight to a restaurant from the service arrangement, and then go out drinking when the bar opened. And we counted our time.

She keeps making eyes at me but I'm not interested. :S
by Elsewhere inat work there is this girl there who keeps making eyes at me, but i'm not interested.
on top of that, she keeps trying to strike up conversations and she goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on... its amazing!
never a pause between sentences and barely a any space between words... just a very very long series of words coming out of her mouth non-stop.

Tell her how you're so pissed off at the specialist you've been seeing, Dr. Stubs, for dumping you as a patient. Now you have to find a new doc to treat your erectile dysfunction. So it's a lie, but I bet it'll work.

Does God have a Dimmer switch?
by annalice inone thing that never made sense to me when i was a jw.
why is god always making the light brighter?
is it on some type of dimmer switch?

A dimmer switch is nothing compared to the "new light" of the JWs. It's more like a strobe light. It helps the JWs to remain spiritually disoriented.

In the 20 years I was a JW I've seen 5 people convert. Only 2 of them were still in when I left.
