Yeah, but….
We forgot about the files for the last 10 years …
Now we are in panic mode, urgent, urgent, urgent we have to get it done in a week and it’s just 3 old people working on it.
Today is the first day of February. 28 days to go. Will it happen this time? The promises about opening “soon” have been going in for years.
Ladies and gentlemen, place your bets
I was all ready to hit that button on Expedia and secure my flight to Chicago to help secure the salvation of this sector of the universe … but then decided to get a haircut instead …
Please get your ethics in
Seems possible Miscavige will open SEVERAL orgs on the same day, like Chicago and Austin and Paris, giving him an excuse not to be physically present, since the cult is so successful no one can keep up anymore. Also proof that planetary clearing has really begun now. If someone asks questions, they’ll say the Pope doesn’t attend every new Catholic church opening.
“CF has always been not up to date. Scientology, with all its’ brilliant admin technology, cannot figure out how to get its files in order … the most advanced administrative training on the planet, and they couldn’t get their files in order.” Val Ross
6,000 boxes of files containing IDs of people who are dead or who will NEVER step foot into the cult again.
SO important. LOL. They only need about 10 file folders to hold the records of those in the area who are “active” Scamologists.
True. The scn bureaucracy is stuck in the 50s and 60s and seen with today’s perspective, it’s pathetic. It shows how blindly adhering to a policy without thinking makes people foolish. The purpose of the CF was not so much to keep track of who had contact with the org but to contact those people to pull them in. The strategy preceded any letter reg to follow them. No org worldwide can name a letter reg as personal priority. So once the CF is ‘fixed,’ maybe with many kicks in the staff and public butt, it will become a jungle again in a few months and again no one will be able to give it importance.
Because the times have changed significantly, and CF doesn’t work, and they know it!
It’s just a heavy and useless burden to carry.
What is “sooner rather than later” from an organization that counts time in trillions of years?
Nothing burger on the menu again. And now they are down to three.
What I’m reading between the lines”
“We’re getting serious pressure from upper management to get this org open and operational. Please bail us out, as we’d like to avoid a lot of yelling, screaming, and threats of lower conditions. And by the way, once you’re here, there will be full-court-press staff recruiting where we shame you within an inch of your life. Sandwiches afterwards.”
My “all hands on CF” pre ideal opening story…(as a volunteer).
I was happily keying in the data from the index cards in the CF until I found my own name!
I was “dead lettered” at the org I was helping to update the CF.
I blew after a few choice words to the SO IC.
Talk about an ARC break!
Ah yes! Hubtard’s Management tech. Almost as effective as his Tech of the mind.
You should have been elated. 😉
Well it was the last straw…
I’m good now.
🙂
What is dead lettered?
Thanks
“dead lettered” should actually be “dead filed”.
Ethics files shall include a dead file. This file includes all persons who write nasty or choppy letters to an org or its personnel. Rather than go to the trouble of issuing a suppressive person order or even investigating, we assign writers of choppy letters to the dead file. When their area is enturbulated and we want to locate a suppressive, we can always consult our dead file for possible candidates and then investigate and issue an order. The dead file is by sections of the area or the world, and alphabetical in those
sections.
I wonder if that happened to me and that’s why I don’t hear from them anymore.
Thanks
Great story, Dave. And while I can certainly understand and empathize with your astonishment and hurt when after volunteering your time to help this org you discover that you had actually been deadfiled by them, nonetheless I have no doubt that you can appreciate the ironly and hilarity of your situation at the same time. Just another disorganized, severely back-logged, non-functioning Scientology organization, producing very little or nothing and at the same time scrambling and desperate to make a suppressive target to move into a brand new shiny building in order to paste over their (and Miscavige’s) down statistics with an “upstat”-looking, Potemkin Village mask. An org unwilling and/or unable to pay for the help they desperately needed and as such forced to mooch off of anyone including someone they themselves as deadfiled! How embarrassing for them! But then, these people don’t GET embarrassed. They always have some handy “Why” to justify their own lack of production. Imagine, if you will, a real organization in the real world be it a business or a non-profit, producing almost nothing, paying their staff nothing, and then grubbing money from their own customers or donators so that they could move into fancy, expensive new office space, on the utter pretense that their organization is expanding!
Honestly, one cannot make this UP!
Bet: Because “the tech is perfect when applied standardly and ethics are in”(repressed guffaws), the org-of course!- will…not open.
Standard dreck option number two: the org will open, under-staffed, with Sea Ogres temporarily filling in “posts on the org board”…until, 6 months later, the org is a roaring…FAILURE.
While Pope Shoe-lifts swills Macallan and screams at lawyers, p.i.’s, and slaves, the orgs in Murica are in a decisive, screaming decline. Totally Appropriate.
Meanwhile, in cellblock 47, Herr Bunsplitter of the Aryan Nation gang readies his stash of hair products, dog(chihuahua) collars, and diminutive-sized orange dresses…
As they are just getting started on the files, I bet that process isn’t over until 6 months have passed. And they still have to get their execs back from Flag. And pay the bills for all the ‘training’ the Execs got.
Right. And if the staff and their dumb public don’t get 6000 boxes of files done by LRH’s birthday they’ll be given a huge loss and made to feel bad. Sick f**king cult, I really hate them today. Sorry 🙂
The first sentence says it all and conveys a sense of desperation that’s now out of control. I can still recall that feeling of being crushed and the pressure to meet another ‘suppressive’ target.
Sleepless nights, constant monitoring, hourly reports, and threats about what would happen if the target wasn’t met. I don’t envy them one bit.
“…Sleepless nights, constant monitoring, hourly reports, and threats…”
I got a chill, reading this.
6000 boxes.
Sooo typical of the cult, giving impossible targets like this. It really was their favorite thing to do.
They were SO disorganized.
How I used to hate getting guilted and coopted into these projects.
And I was just a public, never staff.
But I hated the disorganization and the “all hands” pressure, pressure pressure at the last minute. The Sea Ogres walking around like overseers on a cotton plantation, spurring us slaves on to greater production with “Spirit of Play” bullshit and “Time is only a consideration” bullshit. The manic enjoyment that emanated from them. I used to wonder, “Are these people ONLY capable of working and producing under enormous pressure and totally unrealistic fucking targets?”
Apologies for the vulgarity and a prayer of pure thankfulness to share right now, if I may.
I am so glad and grateful to be OUT of that insanity!
Yes, Aqua is just like that. Everything is let go until when from the quicksand you only see the hand, and then they would send a mission from the SO formed by the most ruthless, devoid of empathy, and big shouters they had available. It’s been 20 years since I left, but as far as I know, everything continues to be managed like that or worse. SCN has always been and is perpetually in ‘swarm of locusts’ mode where it arrives, devastates without mercy, leaving nothing organized or that can grow back.
From Miskiewicz’ New Years speech:
“Next and with no doubt whatsoever, there’s all I just previewed in the name of Idle Orgs for January-February 2024, and since we’re talking numbers, that’s another 377,253 square feet and all to open in the next six weeks.”
January-February or six weeks? All bets are off!
As someone else phrased it oh so nicely: “I’m shaking in my boots, I’m not sure I’m prepared for the monumental change this planet is clearly about to undergo. What a time to be alive!”
Msg from LRH at target 2:
Chicago has to be done!
Remember my body´s birthday in March.
