    ROFLMAO! Are we this typical in each Kingdom Hall? We had "Holy Joe" who forgot to pick the boxes up, left them at home, or in his giant "windowless Van" causing anger and panic with the Piousneers! We are so inept for claiming to be Jehovah's Efficient Organization!

    The Magazines are dropping off the Chariot of Fire!

    In fact a letter HAS been read, telling that they are stacked two and two and have to be separated, and that orders for issues in foreign languages have to be made in 2's; a congregation cannot order 3 of a certain language because of the printing method, but 2 or 4.

    The couple of youngsters handling the counter do it here, and the smaller children are happy to help, making a competition out of it.

    In my congregation the elders had a meeting and decided the Magazine Servant would separate them.

    You could not trust the publishers to do their own work, they may hand them to the householder in pairs by mistake.

    wha happened? >>

    They make jobs out of useless duties and label them priviledges

    This is so true.

    Their doctrinal mouthpieces The Watchtower and Our Kingdom Ministry just thrives
    on the word combinations of privilege / privileges / privileged.

    The Watchtower: 5.848 counts
    Our Kingdom Ministry: 780 counts

    compared to their Bible

    The NW Translation: 10 counts (incl. appendix)

    The WTBTS gives the people what they want: Privileges

    why on earth are they one inside the other anyway? Are they stapled or have they saved money by deleting that too?

    good lord! It's like a comedy of errors up the back of the kingdom hall... are these sisters so subserviant they can't seperate the magazines and need a male to do it?

    sad, so very, very sad

    Just let the pubs do it and let them count it as service time. Problem solved and everybody is happy. And the hours of service increase too.

    They have not been stapled for a long long time, they are glued.

    They now come off the press in pairs, one inside the other just like the Kingdom Ministry's. In the the case of the KM they are in fours or eights depending if there are four or eight pages to each KM that month. The coordinator separates the KMs and hands them to the publishers (or gets a lacky to do it for him).

    In the case of the Public WT and Awake, they come in pairs now, our Magazine Servant has to separate hundreds per month. Not happy
