    So, the new arrangement is to get all the cong to count every tract and memorial invite and dc invite placed etc!

    Can you beleive this! How controlling and completely stupid!...I mean what is the reasoning behind counting a slip left in soemones letterbox????

    Yeah it's pretty stupid just like everything else they instructed to do.

    It is just another proof that they love numbers and believe that higher numbers in anything proves jehovah's favor.

    They might want to brag about how many were placed but it might also be to acertain how many tracts should be printed and sent in the future. I'm sure they want to cut costs and will reduce the amount they print and send to the congs if there is too big a varience between amount shipped and amount reported as placed.

    They are worried about the stats being down (compare the "doorstep Bible study"), so this is one way to beef them up. Ah, GB 2.0.

    Those tracts and mem invites pinned on the post office bulletin board go directly into the trash - I check the board every day when I check the mailbox.

    Saw someone handing out multiple copies to staff at a restaurant...sure they mostly hit the trash too. But good numbers!

    good lord - what a waste of time and energy. a stupid slip of paper? how many? just for starters there is no way they'd get anything near accurate. most people don't even balance their checkbook monthly and they think they are going to count little pieces of paper and keep track of it?!?!?
