THANK YOU. I love reading your posts and this reminded me, yet again, of happy my life has been since I left Scientology in the late 90s.

I know women who were staff in Class V orgs who got pregnant so they had a good reason to not renew their contracts.

My wife was about 20 months into her 2 1/2 year staff contract at LAF when she became pregnant with our first child. I’ll tell you right now, that as far as the higher ups in that org were concerned, that wasn’t a good enough reason for her to end off on her staff post. I don’t know if they thought we’d send a newborn baby off to day care, or what, but I certainly knew that wasn’t going to happen.

My dear wife was under so much pressure to invert her dynamics, that it took every ounce of back-up on my part to help her say no to them. I’m pretty sure the E.D. of that org still thinks I’m an SP to this day, because I ‘stole’ her staff member from her.

In reply to Valkov. Yeah, Valkov, I got to the point where I didn't want to bring anybody by the org in about 1995. It still took until about 2009 before I was embarrassed to call myself a Scientologist. I just could not defend their actions anymore. And since when the hell is it the job of rank-and-file Scientologists to have to defend International Management's actions?

In reply to Gus_Cox. Oh, and to those few cash cows who remain (Craig Jensen, Bob Taylor, et al) I say this: Moo.

“COB said…”
Gus said: Fuck COB.
You hear that, Mr. David Miscavige? More and more people are saying it – not necessarily in those words, but in their actions. They are LEAVING.

In reply to Aquamarine. This video is pathetic. Those 2 women jumping around, with no shared enthusiasm from the others who are not even paying attention.. I feel so sorry for those people. I'm sure they are counting the days until their staff contract is up. I know women who were staff in Class V orgs who got pregnant so they had a good reason to not renew their contracts.
