I'm looking for a job.
by JeffT inmy current employment is going to hell in a handbasket.
it is a fairly good-sized company, but we have one owner, and he can't get his personal problems under control.
i think we could survive well if he'd leave us alone to do our jobs, but he seems intent on driving the company into the ground.. i'd like to stay in the seattle area (actually the long range goal is to move to whidbey island) but i would consider other parts of the country.

Cross Polination
by JeffT inthe other day somebody mentioned, either in a thread or an e-mail to me, the idea that the best way for us to get the truth of what we know about the wt into the minds of the r&f is to plant it with the householders.. i'm a regular on some message boards that have nothing to do with jw's, or even religion, but sometimes it comes up.
i just sent an lengthy e-mail to a guy who asked me about it because his brother is studying.
so now the brother will get some info, and better yet, some poor dub who shows up at this guys door will be in for a challenging conversation.. i would encourage everybody to share what you know anyway you can (without being obnoxious).
