Working for a JW, what a horrible experience...
by HappyGuy inone of the things that made me start doubting the wtbts and jws was the way jws treat their jw employees.. i worked for jws several times.
the experience was always the same.. 1. pay was less than the going market rate for the same work at "worldly" companies.. 2. there were no benefits of any kind, no paid holidays, no sick time, no overtime, no insurance.. 3. whenever possible the jw forced the jw employees to pay their own company related expenses like gas, pager, company uniform, etc.. 4. any attempt to discuss the poor working conditions was always responded to with "but you get to make all the meetings and you get to go to the assemblies and you get to work for brothers.
" and, if you said "i would go to meetings regardless of who i worked for" and pushed back on that answer then they started in on your "loyalty" and you were unspritual if you questioned a "brother" and were not "loyal" to your employer.. 5. any attempt to find another job was met with harassment, being told you could not give the jw employer as a reference, being threatened with lawsuits, etc.. 6. the jw employers themselves were lazy and would not do the things they expected of their jw employees.. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------.

on the flip side. i had a jw work for me once. i would rather be shot in the head than do that again. we gave time off work by length ofemployment. she would wait till the last minute to put in for the district convention every year and one year she came to me a few days before and said she needed off. i told her the time off was booked up but if someone wanted to switch she could try that. she told me it was my problem as boss and she was not coming in and if i forced the issue, she would take me to the human resource department. in the end, she quit but it was bad. to this day, i avoid her like she has leprosy.

why are most people good looking on the 'net
by rockmehardplace inpeople always seem to say how beautiful, sexy, hot, or good looking they are when on the internet.
do you think most people lie or is beauty in the eye of the beholder.

ninja - impressive
sir 82 - depends on who is in "charge"
dune - that actually sounds like most jw men. i can remember watching young loser trash in cheap suits barely old enough to grow a mustache (not a beard, that's a no no) walking around at assemblies with their chest all puffed out. girls (all kinds) would fall over these guys. most not only lacked "spirituality", but they lacked intelligence as well.
