Surely this is the video that will get you to join Scientology staff, slacker!
We know, based on numerous lines of evidence, that the Church of Scientology is having a tough time staffing its many “Ideal Orgs” around the country (and around the world).
Who, after all, wants to dedicate themselves to a high-pressure job of “saving the planet” for little more than minimum wage?
About the best that recruiters for the church can do is emphasize the setting of an Ideal Org like the one in Orlando, Florida.
As far as we can tell, the Orlando org, which was opened in 2018, is struggling like the others. But of course the Magic Kingdom is nearby, which might make a difference if you actually had some time off and a little cash in your pocket.
However, this is Scientology, and staffers don’t have either time or money. But that didn’t stop them from making a recruitment video which seems to suggest that Orlando staffers would actually have the time and money for extensive travel around the state.
As if.
But you tell us, how would you rate this 2-minute pitch to join Orlando staff?

Group Therapy: Our round table of rowdy regulars on the week’s news
When I was involved in Scientology in Toronto back in the 80s, there were several attempts by staff members to recruit me to join staff. I declined but the pressure never ceased. When pressure was unsuccessful some would resort to outright intimidation. How stupid is it to think yelling and harassing could convince someone to join staff or do anything? In any school you may have attended or any company you've ever been employed with, there's always the chance of meeting one or two bad apples. However, I've never met so many dumb and ignorant people under the same roof as I have at my local Scientology org. It's great to see that the number of Scientology members has greatly decreased. It might fade away completely if it weren't for puppets like Tom Cruise (with Miscavige pulling their strings) keeping this pathetic cult alive.
No more saving the world, they'll only lay that on you once they get you to join.
It's a no brainer. Join staff, eat Pizza.
"What was the question?"
Lost in the surrounding details, no mention of "case" alleviation, no mention of exorcising Xenu's earth dump of body-thetans and no mention that Xenu caused the Wall of Fire/4th Dynamic Engram following which earth became showered in body-thetans which were implanted by Xenu with the R6 implants.
Oh well.
Join for the pizza!
Really, which means the invention of Pizza is kind of senior to Hubbard's Xenu's body-thetans exorcism which gets done at Flag, across the state, and Orlando can't even offer the Xenu exorcism.
Pizza! Join now.
thank goodness the Romans created Pizza.
Pizza is greater than Xenu!
