But the biggest thing I had to learn that was not taught in the WCG or at Ambassador College was ethics. We had been so conditioned to see people outside the church in a certain light, and to barely tolerate them, almost in fact dismissively. My further education involved learning the ethical treatment of all people. In many cases, I struggled with my earlier programming, and it was not a pretty picture. Had I not, I probably would never have been able to be a successful business owner today. <br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-75961905872041170082016-05-27T06:07:42.347-07:002016-05-27T06:07:42.347-07:00My best advice for Bobby is not to drink and drive...My best advice for Bobby is not to drink and drive.<br /><br />And also, don't cheat on your Income Taxes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-12253518225306392932016-05-27T05:08:17.690-07:002016-05-27T05:08:17.690-07:00that was not the case with me. i was fined and ser...that was not the case with me. i was fined and served extra duty<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-70678568282741416572016-05-27T00:00:28.619-07:002016-05-27T00:00:28.619-07:00BB "your best job security will be realised i...BB "your best job security will be realised if make yourself pretty damned indispensable, and try to make friends or play nicely with others." has a name.

He insisted on being home by sunset Friday, and the crew sometimes had not finished shooting that week's episode by that time.<br /><br />It is has generally been my experience that a person is not fired soley because of the sabbath. It is usually the sabbath and something else. A person has not made himself terribly valuable to the company, and the sabbath is used basically as a pretext. Early in my career, it happened to me twice. Later, in retrospect, I realized that I had made some mistakes, or had had difficulties relating to the other employees. Lets face it. Most employers will not fire their most valuable employee over a religious issue, especially if he is also personable and well liked. I had not learned by that point in time that your best job security will be realized if you make yourself pretty darned near indispensable, and try to make friends or play nicely with others.<br /><br />BB<br />Byker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226103369043606765.post-15449339483455973122016-05-26T20:09:19.070-07:002016-05-26T20:09:19.070-07:00They look like dorks in those uniforms.

That is laughable!<br /><br />Yeah right! And pigs fly! <br /><br />What Government was Thiel working for that would "nearly" jail him for keeping the Sabbath? The old USSR or North Korea perhaps because it sure wasn't the good old USA or any lower level State government entity.
