  My Bethel Experience Part 10

  2. friends

  there were guys at bethel, who had great jobs........like don brouex.....he was the receptionist at the 124 desk....checking in and "checking out" ......all the bethel tours and "hot" sisters......on there way through the "home tour"............that my friend, is not a real bethel job.. there were guys at bethel, that had great congergations with maybe only 2-4 bethelities in their halls.

  one hall, midtown had over 80 bethelites there.............. 3 old ladies 4 kids and a dog.

  odds of getting a home cook meal on sunday 0%.

  well it is 4:00 a.m. in the morning and i can't sleep, so might has well write.. everything at bethel is seniority........"how long have you been here?

  " if you wanted a better room you need some seniority, rooms would go up on a bid system.

  if you were a new boy, and all your friends were new boys, it could be a year or two before you got a decent room and 10 years to get a room with its own bathroom, pre towers days.

  a job offer has come our way that looks excellent.

  however, it is located in pascagoula, ms. i am wondering how the area is faring since katrina.

  does anybody know this area, and if so, what is your view of it.

  My exbrother inlaw lives in Mississippi he said "The good thing about Mississippi is you don't ever have to worry about a recession...because it like that all the time here"...(poorest standard of living in the united states)

  I lived in Northern Louisana for two years (bible belt)....I liked what George Carlan said about "the deep south"..."I love going to the south it like going back in time 200 years"

  Of course if your rich you can live anywhere and it will be fine, even Mississippi.

  I'm sorry my friend, I'm sure this was not what you were looking for....but come on...Mississippi?

  Well most us worked hard there. We took pride in our work...A few didn't they were called a "Jack" or a "Fake Out"...they got so much shit from the rest of us, they pick up the pace or got a job change, The overseers would move you to a job were you couldn't fake out on, say a bindry line or a sewing machine. It was like the rowers in the movie "Ben Hur" you were chained to machine.

  Has for Doctors When I got there we had the good Doc Dixon. In fact I set on his table. If you read the rest of my Bethel series I talk about him.

  Even when I was a witness I said this...

  N.H. Knorr...

  I know what your thinking...but he is going to heaven right?....WRONG, God in his infinate justice will bring him back and put his ass on a bindry line.

  Well nobody really said it....they said "dating"....nothing illegal about that.

  So I guess I'll say it.......I slept with someone of the opposite sex (it was O.K. though) because all we did was sleep in the same bed together...nothing happen that night.

  people would ask me "how long do you plan on staying at bethel" i would say "forever!.....or 4 years which ever comes first" .

  besides the about 48 hours you worked there a week, you would have other duties too.

  there was dish duties.

  i 'm sorry all of this is not in order.............i'm writing as all this comes back to me.. my first room assignment was room 33 in the 129 building....it was and old building, built around the turn of the century,...the society owned it but it had worldly people in to.......i'm not sure why but maybe there was a law that provented them from being kicked out or something.

  it was a 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment (about 1000 sq.

  ft.) there were 7 of us in there, all new boys ( less then one year there).
