I have no idea if they were paying or not.

Considering the miniscule amounts staff were usually paid, that's quite understandable.

I did two stints at Riverside Mission in the late 70s as a sort of "outer org trainee." Missions don't normally have OOTs, but Riverside did. I was Honolulu staff, and Bent C. had both missions at the time. Honolulu staff were often shipped to R'side for a while to "show 'em how it's supposed to be done." During my second stint there I regularly got paid $55/wk as an academy W/Cer, which actually seemed like a living wage at the time. (I shared an apt with one other staffer and our monthly rent was $90 -- cheap even by late 70s standards -- of which I paid half. The mission actually served good meals to the staff, so I had virtually no food expenses.) Except for that period of a few months, I got paid little or nothing during my six years on staff, and relied almost entirely on low-paying part time wog jobs for income.

There would have been a "flow" (direction) in there and "tell me when you are there" came several commands later.

F1: "Locate an incident of another causing you 'high anxiety'
F2: "Locate an incident of you causing another 'high anxiety'
F3: "Locate an incident of others causing others 'high anxiety'
F0: "Locate an incident of you causing yourself 'high anxiety'

1. Locate ...
2. When was it?
3. Move to incident
4. Duration?
5. Move to beginning, tell me when you are there.

I just made up the "command" to try to make a joke. Flunk on me - off to cramming. haha

6. Move through to the end of the incident.
7. Tell me what happened.
8. Is the incident erasing or going more solid?
(If more solid then "Is there an earlier similar incident?" If erasing go through the incident again, I forget the exact wording)
etc.
Some people criticize the procedure as robotic, but when you had thousands of ordinary people training to be auditors you couldn't allow everyone to be improvising. As you know, if a session went bad there were correction lists to locate and correct the errors.
