The protesters are teaching the public to say NO to the recruiters in their usher suits!

😆 🤣 😂 Ya’ll cracking me up!

I could be wrong but it seems to me that this Ron guy didn’t voluntarily leave the Sea Org but was offloaded due to accumulated debt. Could be wrong on this so would like to know your thoughts.
Incidentally, it reminds me of when I was on staff. I was doing QM and the phone rang at two in the morning. The caller was the father of one of our SO members. He was calling from Britain and explained to me that his daughter(the SO member) had run up a massive cell phone bill and creditors were harassing him for payment and could I help him with it? I politely explained that it was two in the morning in Nashville and all I could do was route a comm particle to our ED as this was a Sea Org ethics matter. He agreed and I did inform the ED on the matter.

Aqua, although I’ve been involved in selling materials for a while, I don’t remember any reference explicitly prohibiting it. If I want to sell one meter still considered okay to pay off debts and join the Sea Org or buy a limited edition emeter, no one will come to tell me anything.

Maybe the issue arises if I have several and I’m selling them at lower prices, competing with the bookstore.
That’s when they’ll come after with a knife me to skin me alive.

I recall a staff member telling me, back in the day, that on one of the OEC – or maybe it was one of the courses connected to the Management Series – maybe the ESTO (Establishment Officer) Series – anyway she told me that on one of these admin courses there’s a drill for Executives who are being hit with all kinds of demands and requests from staff, etc., to learn to say “No, to drill saying “No” until it could be done very comfortably and effectively. I recall telling her that I wanted to do that course, and that she laughed.

I assumed that more work needed to be done on Target two before moving to Target 3
