WOW Javeca GOOD FOR YOU!

Well I was never caught doing anything really bad, but I did have a fairly ridiculous experience with one of my old elders. We had this guy John who was a big time control freak. After one of my #4 talks one night he was counseling me. Now I hate to toot my own horn, but I was a great speaker. John had basically nothing to counsel me on and he told me so. Except for one thing. My suit coat was not buttoned up, and it should have been. John grabbed two buttons on the suit for me and buttoned for me... while I was wearing the coat, and told me that that was the only way that a man could wear his coat onstage.

I got a little miffed. I looked at him and I said "John, where is that written?" He said: "It's not written anywhere, but it's a good guideline." I only gave one talk after that, I gave it a week before I left and it was the second school. Needless to say, I didn't button my coat.
