What happened at your last job?...do tell. :)

originalsnob Oct 23, 2004

Ha! I love the do tell, it so very British of you. @ my last job, there was this woman who was very respectful of the fact that I was a JW. After some time she got a little more familiar with me...

Very cool. I find it interesting the misconceptions people have about Witnesses sometimes. Like, I've heard ones that have been easy to explain, and some were like "WHOA!!! Where in the WORLD did y...

yeah my favorite is that we are not allowed to wear brand name clothing

bethelites aren't, and we can't to a worksite, like work days at assembly halls, quickbuilds...

well someone said that to me in highschool, like that someone they knew who was a JW wasnt allowed to wear brand name sneakers and is that true. And i laughed.

We can't wear brand-name clothing to quickbuilds and stuff? And I mean I can understand with the brand plastered on the shirt or whatever but.... i duno, i never heard of not being "allowed" to wear a certain brand or whatever

I'm not sure of the exact reason, but we're actually building a new hall right now, and they've made several announcements reminding us not to wear shirts or clothes with stuff written on them. A few people forgot, and had to turn their shirts inside out.

I see how this could happen. Keep in mind the geography. Jersey is different when it comes to things like that.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

well yeah i know that, but brand-name clothing in general doesn't always have stuff written on them.... i don't really enjoy stuff with the brand name plastered across but i mean if i'm wearing prada socks no one will know right? haha... that's what I meant, like some people think we're not allowed to shop anywhere other than liek Walmart

i love wal-mart, i was playing football in wal-mart just the other day when i accidentally chose a two year old to be linebacker and block debassedbassist. what was i thinking! well nothing a few more diapers can't solve.

they just mean don't wear a shirt that has old navy plastered across the front. If it's a plain green armani shirt (don't know why you'd wear that to work in, but anywho)...it really doesn't matter, but it just can't say it where its visable...they don't want advertisements on the site.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

exactly, tha'ts what i thought. but we're allowed to wear brand name clothing. Someone in high school said she heard I wasn't. I duno I was wearing NIke's or something I duno... and she was like OH MY aren't you not allowed? haha weird
