5. Some think it is their job

they think they are failing their lord by not proselytizing. They literally believe they are saving your soul. And then they'll say "Well, god does the saving through jesus christ our lord" but when they get together in their meetings they clap each other on their backs and praise each other for the number of souls they saved. Hell, they used to keep a big scoreboard in the church I grew up in.

I think some take it more seriously than others but they all want to look good at meeting time so they'll get out there and knock on doors for the lord. Or parking lots. Or restaurants. They don't give a flying fuck if you want to hear from them because it's your SOUUUUL stake and they can't let an opportunity pass to tell you about their lord. Boss gets mad when they slack. GOd told them to do it and his wishes outweigh yours.
