Thanks.
Was Hilda a good Auditor?
I hear that she lives in Clearwater now.
yes and no to answer your question.
Hilda is a good soul and I consider her a friend no matter what. She never joined staff but was recruited repeatedly. She held her ground. She only audited staff, she wanted to help staff, she never audited public. Those were her terms. I believe she got paid, something like 10 or 20 bucks per hour. You have to understand the mission was bringing in something $20-30K per month. We were selling "clear" packages to the docs for 10-15k each, both husband and wife, with like something like 4-10 docs per month. We hired field auditors to come and audit these docs, they got something like
$50/hr. A lot of times we had to send field auditors to the doc's home to audit where they become auditor and C/S if Class 8. All expenses paid for the auditor.
A lot of staff were pissed to all end that field auditors were getting paid big bucks while us contracted staff were getting paid $100-200 per week. Auditors getting $1K - $2K per week. OMG
So, if you get my dots, Hilda wanted to help staff get up the bridge although she never got paid the big bucks at the time but enough to make a living. Also, the majority of staff were "clear" and above, I was but a handful of non-clears.
Hilda audited me on Method 1, arc straightwire and grade 0. From a scientology POV she was good, she listened and put up with my very boring life. I mean another auditor, who they all have to eventually FES PC folders, told me, Gib, your life is like mine, very boring, LOL We both never had wild stories to confess in auditing, and we both never went whole track! LOL
The only reason I say no is because Hilda was applying the tech and from a "what is to be gained" POV, or no the tech no work POV. While I had fun looking up words in Method 1, but I didn't recover my education. ARC straightwire was a lot of fun and I felt that was worthwhile, but I didn't pay for it, it was staff auditing. Grade 0 was fun and I completed the whole thing and never attested, I wanted more to see if I can talk to anybody about anything. Hilda was gone from the scene at that time as the doc's started to refund and no money was allocated for staff auditing. But Hilda and I was a team as far as my "case" was concerned at the time.
Anyways, after I blew and recovered myself and went back on staff to finish the contract, Why I talked and met with Hilda as she was still around in the area and went to events. She married Dave Swanson I believe and moved to LA and then Clearwater. I think they divorced, I don't know her whereabouts.
I truely hope she connects with you again and I wish I could do something. It's a sad for me, big time, since I now know her mom. What a small world sometimes.
