My Posts This: Topic Forum | No, JitsuGuy, I'm not an expert on anything. But I know high-pressure scams when I see them, and the woman who recruited my daughter kept on her big time to sell, sell, SELL!
I finally ran the bitch out of my house on her last visit to deliver product. I threw that stuff in her car, and told her we weren't paying for this, or any more; and don't come back. She started to make some noise about cops, etc.,; then shut her hole when I smiled and said, "Oh, yeah; let's play that game."
The whole idea behind the scheme is this person gets a cut and credits from all the girls "under" her who are in the trenches selling the crap. The more they sell, the more credits, etc., the "recruiter" gets. The brass ring for Mary Kay is apparently to be named a "director";
that's the impression I got from the discussions they had in my presence. After the first one, I told Ainsley I had put far better con artists in jail; but she was determined to give it a shot.
Some folks are suited to that high-pressure game; not my kid, apparently. But this woman would not accept that Ainsley was NOT enjoying herself and wanted out. She made the serious mistake of giving me a ration of sh!t in my own kitchen. Bad move...
JitsuGuy, I don't know what you do, and don't care. I was not commenting on whatever it is you DO do; I was responding to ShempHoward's comment regarding AmWay, because a pal had pretty much the same experience we did with the Mary kay gig when he tried selling AmWay.
The experience didn't make us experts; just a bit smarter. |
