The regular missionary activity reminds me of being in Scouts as a kid. I almost never enjoyed going to weekly meetings or fundraising or whatever, spent the whole time looking at the clock and wishing it was over already, but I kept going every week because that's what was normal in my family and social group.

Would you ever go out solo, or always as a group? I imagine more than a few disenchanted people would just hang out for a few hours and fill out a fake report if no one else was there to watch them. I always wonder how often two slackers get paired together in Mormon missions and just blow it off and cover for each other.

I came to skepticism and atheism pretty honestly in my teenage years (The internet was barely a thing people had so I couldn't even say I was doing it to be cool on facebook). If I was in a hyper-religious family that required I annoy people on their days off I'd have probably just gone to a movie/arcade/skate park then lied about it later.
