Tired of the HypocrisyA video I made about the way the wtbts treats its workers


I have a friend who has been at Beth-Hell since early in 1971.  He is arthritic and went one time too many to the infirmary and finds himself with no job, no education, and no benefits after nearly 40 years working his butt off at Brooklyn then at Patterson.....Please help me spread this video around.

Thanks kids!

Great video, I cried in this one. At least I was 33 when I realize the crap I was into. Still I find it hard to survive due to WT's attitude towards education. I was a teenager in the early 80's and the generation was just about to expire, I didn't finished school, start pionnering because the end was going to come. 25 years has gone by and I'm 41 trying to survive in this hard world.

I feel so sorry about those persons that spend their life to the WT's prison. It is a shame how those leaders of that cult treat their members. WT has cause us only pain, nothing more

this should go into the "Best Of" section... EXCELLENT VIDEO.  SAD SUBJECT.

I ran out of tears a long time ago.  I was saddened because of what Jacob and others have given of their lives, only to get nothing at the end.

I myself gave (off and on) almost 10 years to pioneering.  Thankfully, I only did a 3 week (Brooklyn) and a 4 week (WT Farm) stint at Beth hell.  I withdrew my ap for permanent after the second stint.  I did the whole MTS thing...almost got suckered into being shipped to the middle of nowhere. 

I have (probably had) a friend who is still at Bethel.  I think this is his 20th anniversary.  He went fresh out of Pioneer School back in 1988.  He was a young MS/pioneer...still single last I talked to him.  I dont hear from him anymore.  He probably doesnt know about my fade.  So he is in his late 30s and, though he will have some new skills for employment when (not if when) he is dismissed, who is going to hire him if he stays too long?

I have (probably again had) a friend who is celebrating her 25th year as a regular pioneer.  She is in her late 40s, single, still pretty and thin.  Gave up a shot a school and a good paying career to be a housecleaner and later (I believe) a nanny.... I think she is doing other things now secularly, but what is she waiting for?  She will become increasingly bitter as she hits 50 and realizes this old system is the ONLY system there is going to be.

The Watchtower Society should (but isnt obviously) be ashamed of itself.

Excellent video......Very sad that a multi-billion dollar corporation would kick their faithful followers to the curb after decades of free labour.  My understanding is that Crooklyn is again recruiting for young ones, but only those who have got specific skills that you need to go to college or university for. 

Well, Jesus said "...by their fruits you will recognize them."

Wow, that was very, very moving  I hope that your video is seen by some who are considering going to Bethel. This could possibly open their eyes.I agree with snakes that this is an important video.

Great work tired.

How did they go about telling him that he was no longer needed?

Did he protest?

He was let go with a group of several dozen workers.  He was released from his duties suspiciously after he became arthritic and had made a few stops by the infirmary.  He did not protest.

After all that, and they tried to hound me into going to Beth Hell in the early 1990s?  They told me that one of the benefits is that I wouldn't have to worry about the cancer sticks.

With what goes on at Beth Hell, and that people get thrown out when they get too sick or old (and that they sicken faster while there), I think I would rather have those cancer sticks around (even though they are now banned from smoking at most places of employment).

Pretty damn cold. Is Joseph the old fellow at the end of the video?

Not sure, I found the image online after doing an image search for elderly folks that are depressed.

Where is that scripture about telling a person who comes to you naked and hungry to "go away and be clothed and well fed"? Wasn't the point of it that this is hypocrisy?

That was excellent! I just wish I had email addresses of all the JW's I ever knew so this could  be sent to them.

Not sure anymore if the example is in Ezekiel or one of the other OT books where Jehovah starts the cleansing in the temple first with the high priest and their cronies for all the despicable things they did.

The WT society, and especially the GB surely deserves the wrath of God for using, abusing, and then spitting out all of the faithful who have given the best part of their lives as unpaid slaves of this organization.

JUST WOW. Using the scriptures from Leviticus to expose the double standard the WTS exhibits really made a striking point. It IS understood that these workers are VOLUNTEERS and agree to expect nothing in return, fair enough. But they are being treated as lesser than any schmo that wanders up to the facility looking for a hand out and the bible clearly states that even THEY should be looked after. Please keep us posted on the situation. Poor Jacob

Just a couple suggestions that could make the video even better...it would be good to scan that KM which had the announcement of all the "older ones being reassigned to the field." This would answer the first question any unacquainted viewer is likely to have, "What in the world is he talking about?"

Secondly, it would help to have an interview with Jacob in there somehow. It could be a telephone interview. Anything that shows his take on the matter.

But it's a good video that tugs at the old heart strings....
