Why do most brothers work in the cleaning business?
by JH inwhen i joined the jw's many years ago, i couldn't get over how many were working in the cleaning business.
i know this permitted them to go to the meetings, out in the field service, and work without any conflict.. where did this trend start?
is it like this world wide?

Why do people go back after being DFed?
by Lady Lee ini was reading swordofjah's post about a young lady who went back after 8 months and got reinstatedthis past tuesday, a young sister (21 years old) was reinstated after 8 months.
she was always very nice and upbeat, but made a few wrong turns in her life.
i talked to her a bit after the meeting and she was telling me that before being disfellowshipped she had been consumed by her actions, just didn't feel any joy in serving jehovah.

I saw a JW Elder at X-Men 2 Movie this weekend!!
by WingCommander ini nearly fell off my seat.
this 30ish jw elder came strolling in the movie theater with his wife and a huge tub of pop corn in his arm to watch x-men 2: xmen united.
i couldn't believe the hypocrasy.........they teach not to even watch much tv, much less go to a movie.

What Happened To All Your Friends???
by minimus into become a witness, you must leave everything behind and associate only with jw's.
did you think that you really were going to only associate with jehovah's witnesses and no one else???
---------- after you left or got df'd, did you regain your past "worldly" friendships or were they forever lost?

Disfellowshipped
by Descender injust wondering, how many of you were a glutton for punishment and kept on going back and getting re-instated after succesive disfellowshippings?
i was disfellwshipped twice, the first time i was re-instated six months after and then six months later i was df'd again, then i came back in 4 years later and then a year later i faded away.
that's where i stand at the moment.

Question I haven't seen yet
by Descender inthis is my first post, i've been reading the board for a few months now and i must say it's rather addicting.
anyway, back to the topic of my post.
i was wondering how many, if any of you went out with a bang, like on a sunday morning meeting while you were giving a talk, or maybe while you were giving a #2 or #4 talk on the ministry school.
