					<description><![CDATA[I had an interview at Root Cause Medical Clinic. Cash only “healthcare clinic” who provide your classic Scientologist “modalities” and no true medical treatments. When a company cannot identify who their patient demographic is, and tell you “people come from all over the world”, RUN! I was told I would be administering IVs and not to worry “all our Scientologist patients have great veins” …wtf they really do believe they are the exemplary specimens. Apparently 90% of their patients are treated virtually as well…UM how does that work?? I was then put in a small room and cornered into taking the IQ and personality test. I asked several times point blank if they were affiliated with the church of Scientology and they refused to answer me directly and became agitated when I asked. I have previously had a similar encounter with Dr.Minkoff. BS guru.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi Mike,

I did some googling because my organization uses the service KnowBe4. It appears Stu sold KnowBe4 last year which makes me feel a bit better about our doing business with them.

Amusing that, prior to the sale, he was in business with Kevin Mitnick.]]></description>

Shelly is still being kept in the compound she was banished to many years ago so that Miscavige &#038; Cruise can continue their secret lover status. This is also why Tom can&#039;t keep &#038; doesn&#039;t want any of the beautiful women he&#039;s been involved with or married to. He&#039;s commited to Miscavige. The episode of South Park wasn&#039;t off base. Tom Cruise won&#039;t come out of the closet &#038; neither will Dave.]]></description>

Mick:  Yes, it is a great article.  I noticed on the list the name Jim Mathers.  I know that name well.  He is the owner of Consumer Energy Solutions.  This is a telemarketing firm selling energy to residential and business customers.  I worked for the verification company owned and operated by his wife FuMei.  I worked in HR and payroll department.  Very interesting job to say the least.  At first, I was processing the HR applications and background checks and inputting the weekly payroll.  After about 2 months, I was then tasked with doing research on the internet getting lists of names and numbers for her husband&#039;s business, so that his people could contact people (which is what you list in number 3).  I worked there for about 4 months.  With regard to your question #7, I would say the answer is no, but I get the feeling if you are there any length of time, in order to keep your job, you are heavily recruited to join.  I say this because, at the time I worked there, my husband was injured in an auto accident.  I had to take a couple days off, but on the day I requested the time off, a personal assistant at FuMei&#039;s urging came in to instruct me how to help my husband without the use of pain pills (which he absolutely needed because of the extent of his injuries).  I am also inclined to believe that the sales people are overworked and under paid for their.  I knew a few sales people who boasted about the big bonuses, but the sales quota they had to reach was near impossible to attain without them lying and pushing hard to obtain the sale.  This is something that the Scientologists do to recruit their people.  I am sure that there are a handful of sales people who pushed through to obtain the bonuses, but lost themselves in the process and are still there because they were indoctrinated and now can&#039;t leave.]]></description>
