What silly things have you been counselled on or simply been told off for?

    "Inappropriate" ties, wearing a hat, wearing a beard, having a FaceBook/MySpace/Yahoo account, emailing a female sister (totally not romantically), offering to drive a sister 3 blocks to my study with a female... The list goes on and is irritating and just plain shameful.

    Got pulled aside several times for not pursuing more "privileges" in the congregation, e.g. pioneer, MS, even elder. I'd never even get on the school. I didn't want the responsibility to distract me from my ministry and didn't want it to feel like a burden, but a joy. I never agreed with a special title ("pioneer") for Witnesses who actually witness. The 5-10 hour a month JWs who insist they are "putting the Kingdom first" just annoy me to no end.

    The brother is like A wet dream, A big screw up , everything he touch

    turn too sh----t. At the time I spoke those words I was A MS, speaking

    too another elder, about another elder. They did not like my choice

    of words, but agreed he had A lot of shortcoming, but still I should

    respect the brother because he was appointed by God. God

    do not owe me money , that brother needs to pay me. Sorry

    what was the topic, got carried away..

    Remember when peasant skirts were popular in the 90's? Well, they were too long and I was being overly modest by wearing them.
