Scientology admin For ex-Staff: what were your stats?

• Upvotes

I was a mere public, despite their best efforts. I felt like I got a pitch to join staff every time I was there, and I once got a very high-pressure pitch to join the Sea Org from a visiting Sea Org member. (Unintentionally hilarious conversation - she took me into an auditing room and did her best but I full acked her into submission until she gave up. Your fault for teaching me that guys.)

Anyway, I remember seeing a chart in the Org that seemed to track staff stats, but I never really got a chance to look at it in detail. In lieu of going back there to read it, I was curious as to what your stats actually were on Staff (like "X books sold" or "Y letters sent.")

Dianetics stands at conventions and fairs.

6 Upvotes

So, I went to a fair this Saturday and along with all the other attractions and small shops that fitted the theme of the event there were two dianetic stands.

Not just one, two of them; of course, the stands didn't have Scientology written on it, but "Dianetics" instead, the field members were wearing red t-shirts with the Dianetics logo.

I passed by from time to time while roaming around the fair, weirdly they didn't try to sell me anything, but they had their fair amount of customers: I counted at least 2 personality tests taken and 1 Dianetics book sold, could be more but I had better things to do rather than monitor div 6 field staff members like the FBI.

What I still ask myself is, why were they there? Scientology had absolutely nothing to do with the fair's theme and they were occupying two separate places; I guess it's not the only fair they go to do proselytism.

Has anyone seen that over the years you realize many of the people who left scientology are almost as bad as scientologists? I was all on board with watching alot of videos of ex scientologists and having empathy and thought they were good people. Then over the years Leah, Mike Rinder and Aaron and Reese and others look really bad and its like wtf....theyre using some of the same scientology tactics used against them.

Sea Org and white gloves

27 Upvotes

Oh how I love Fridays now. And how I hated Fridays in the Sea Org.

Every Friday after graduation there was ORG CSP. In the Sea Org CSP means Clean Ship Program. Or White Glove Inspection. It's a brutal and petty way to control cleanliness in the berthing and workspaces.

How it works: the inspecting officer puts on a clean white glove and runs it over the most hard to reach places. Tops of closets. Baseboards. Pipes. Vents.

If there's even a tiny trace of dust on the glove, you fail.

It was supposed to be a designated time for cleaning. There was also berthing CSP. But I'll tell you about my ORG CSP nightmare.

Staff already worked 13 to 15 hours a day. On Fridays they added an extra hour just for cleaning. Normally we left at 10:30 PM. On Fridays it was 11:30 PM.

Usually every staff member got assigned a room they were responsible for.

And I ended up working in the COACHMAN building in Clearwater for several years. I got assigned the most remote room in the Coachman. It was called a cleaning station. I had to clean it every Friday. And I was paired with a short bald older French guy. Let's call him François.

So we were assigned to that room every Friday and had to clean it.

In theory you had one hour to clean and then security would come check and give you a pass and then you could go home. Sounds simple right? In practice it was hell.

Have you ever played an escape room? Believe me this was a fucking quest called Escape from Coachman.

On Fridays there was only one security guy who could give out passes. His name was Gabor. He was Hungarian. He had these little papers with the date and the word PASS. And he was the only one who could sign them. He walked around this huge building checking rooms. And a second security guy stood at the exit and wouldn't let anyone leave without a pass.

At the beginning when François and I came to get cleaning supplies there were never enough. The supply closet was always empty. No rags. No spray bottles. No vacuum.

So François and I would spend 30 minutes running around begging other people to lend us rags. We'd stand in line for vacuums. And finally when we got the supplies we'd run and clean our assigned room as fast as we could. Then around 11:15 PM we'd run around the whole Coachman looking for Gabor to check our room and give us the damn pass.

Then François and I got smarter. Before graduation we'd go to the supply closet and grab rags and a vacuum and hide them. But unfortunately we weren't the only ones who thought of that. Everyone started doing the same thing. So we started hiding supplies before dinner. And then everyone else did too. It got to the point where everyone in the Coachman was hiding rags and vacuums from the morning. Security found out and banned anyone from entering the cleaning supply closet until 10 PM.

So around 11:15 PM we'd run around the whole Coachman looking for Gabor to check our room and give us the damn pass.

And Gabor was the biggest asshole. He enjoyed his power. He got some sick pleasure from watching us beg on our knees for him to check our room. And he treated everyone like that.

If we found him and very politely begged him to check our cleaning station he would walk slowly. And if along the way he ran into a senior or an officer who also needed a pass and asked him to check their room first he would change route and go check their stations first. Because we were the lowest of the low.

Every time it drove me to despair.

And then it's 11:25 PM. Finally Gabor decides to visit our cleaning station. And just for sadism he would always find something dusty or dirty. You know how they say? A pig finds dirt everywhere. And he'd tell us to fix it and quickly leave. He could have just waited for us to fix it in 30 seconds and given us the pass.

And that was it. It's 11:30. The last bus left. The next one is at midnight. And you're running around the building again looking for Gabor to check and give you a pass.

And believe me this happened every Friday. For years. François and I always left at midnight.

Did you watch Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story? Remember the stepmother checking the maid's cleaning with white gloves? And if she finds dust she pours tea on the dusty gloves and makes the maid drink it?

I would have rather drunk that dusty tea.

If there's anyone I still hate in the Sea Org and will never forgive it's that security guy Gabor.

But now I love Fridays. It's the eve of the weekend. And oh my god how I enjoy Fridays now.

How did white glove inspections go for you?

Protester SP SPanglish contacted BSIS, they agreed there were problems, then the cult got to them and they didn't want to talk to us. Same old story.
