Don’t Smash The Alarm Clock


One of the bullshit things we used to hear at every Amway meeting were stories about how ambots were becoming financially free and about the last morning they had to wake up and go to work for the man.

They all have the same story. They are always men - but then what else do you expect from the Amway good old boys club but a bunch of male chauvinist pigs. They’re all sitting at their desk getting their work done. Then their wife walks in and says its time. Apparently this was not something preplanned. The wife decided on it on the spur of the moment an hour or two earlier. Then they both go in to see the boss and tell him to stick his job where the sun don’t shine. Then they walk out of the hated company and away from the hated J.O.B. hand in hand gloating at the coworkers watching them. Standing outside are all the members of their Scamway team. What? None of those fuckers didn’t have jobs they had to be at? There is always a limousine waiting outside. The husband and wife get into it and it always takes them straight home. Oh come on use some imagination here. There is probably at least a 2 hour minimum on renting a limo. You could just ask the chauffeur to drive around and have sex back there. But no. They all want to go home. And what is the first thing they do when they get home? They smash the alarm clock! They will never have to wake up to an alarm clock ever again. Especially not now that its been smashed to smithereens. They can wake up when they’re done sleeping!

And everyone in the upline has the same bullshit story. It never changes. Sudden epiphany at work to quit and walk out. Cult followers outside cheering the ambot on for quitting. Limo. Smash alarm clock.

First a couple of irregularities I see in this often told story.

Conceivably the husband drove a car to work. He leaves in a limo. What’s he going to do about his car? I realize its probably one of those clunker ambot shitmobiles that’s always breaking down but presumably the boss ain’t going to be too happy about the car being abandoned there. Boss calls tow truck. Ambot gets ticket to pay for towing and storage fees. Refuses to pay. Car goes to auction. Tow company leaves bad rating on ambot’s credit report.

And who has an alarm clock anymore? Didn’t they go out in the 70’s when clock radios became all the fashion?

The sack of shit Platinum taunted us about this tale and didn’t we want it too?

Lets see. I haven’t worked for anyone else in years. So what am I supposed to do? Go into the bathroom and stare myself down in the mirror and say I quit. Fuck you. I should line up all my Barbie doll collection as my pretend coworkers so they can all catch this magical moment. I stomp out of my house and there’s the limo. Who called and paid for this sucker? Hmm. Scenic drive for a couple of hours and then bring me back home? The street is lined with clunkers belonging to ambots who must have all called in sick today so they can come over to my house and watch this magical moment as I tell myself I quit and I’m never going to work for myself again. I really hesitate to take a sledge hammer to my clock radio. It works just fine. It will be a mess to clean up. And what happens when I want to listen to music in the evening and can’t find my iPod.

And the next morning I can wake up when I’m done sleeping! Well shit. What fun is that? I already do that. Been doing it for years. I’m usually done sleeping around 8am. Kind of an internal alarm clock. Yeppers. I do not set the alarm on my clock radio unless there is something specific I have to be up early for which usually involves getting myself or someone else to the airport. And I’m very talented, probably much more so than those ambots with the smashed up old fashioned alarm clocks. Yesterday I was done sleeping twice. Yes! Twice! Lets see an ambot try that one! The first time I was done sleeping around 5am. I woke up thinking about something I had to do, went into the office, powered on the computer, left a note for myself so I wouldn’t forget then I went back to bed. The next time I was done sleeping was at 9:45am.

I want to make sure everyone knows you don’t have to be a scamming Amway IBO to tell your boss you quit. Anyone at any time can tell the boss fuck you I’m outta here. You also don’t need to be quitting your job to hire a limousine. People hire them all the time for all kinds of different occasions. They have different prices depends on if you take a regular sized limousines or if you like one of those stretch SUV kinds and where you’re going or how long you need to use it. The limousine businesses will take money from anyone, they’re not exclusive to ambots!

Anyway I guess it makes a nice fairy tale for the Amway cult followers. Those bastards need to update their story to keep up with the times though. We are coming up on a generation who will have no idea what is an alarm clock.
Ambots don’t need an alarm clock cause they’re awake at 2, 3, 4 in the morning trying to peddle their Amway shit.

People might join Amway because they listened to the fairy tale about how they’d have more time and money. Reality? You’ll have less of both.

  1. I wanted to inform you that, Amway is getting sued. It's pretty old news, but they're getting sued!

    1. Which lawsuit Anonymous? LOL! Every time you turn around Amway is being sued again! Are you talking about the one in California and the new law about gig employees who are entitled to at least a minimum hourly wage? That's really going to fuck up these scam MLMs like Amway!

    2. Yeah, the California lawsuit. And there's another one where they are being sued for the ibo ibo status to employee status. They're being hit with so many lawsuits.

  2. Hello Anna, I am awaiting Amway 2019 sales statistics to appear, but still nothing. 2018 sales had been released on 11. February 2019. Now it is 18. February 2020 and still nothing...

    What we know as of now is, that Nu Skin fell dramatically in sales and especially in China, which makes almost third of sales of Amway too. Seems chinese guys find out already, what MLM is.

    Also have heard a lot of news about layoffs from Amway in Ada and some other Amway plant, 171 people in total.

    Put it all together and I guess what is going on, is that Amway does not want to share the bad numbers from 2019, as in MLMs there are only successes, everything is growing, people get positions, etc. etc.

    But when things go wrong, usually the currencies exchanges rates are to be blamed.... :-)

    Funny is, that I heard many Ambots repeating cca 2014 sales numbers, when Amway was growing, they were totally unaware, that their company shrinked by cca 30% within last 4 years.

    One day, when Amway bankrupts, I am afraid year after that there will be still some IBOs recruiting and promising millions of residual income... :-)

    1. LOL Anonymous! Great minds think alike! I was just looking for that yesterday myself! LOL!

      Usually Amway reports their sales figures in February. They got to get ready to report their corporation's earnings and pay taxes pretty soon. Though Amway seems to be very comfortable cheating on their taxes and that's taught at Amway meetings. Could be nothing more than they're behind. Or could be trying to figure out how to cook the books. Who knows?

      Yeah generally speaking when a company starts shutting down warehouses and massive lay offs that's not a good sign of financial stability.

      Yeah one day an Amway loser shows up here bragging that Amway made 13 billion in sales the year before. I said Amway only claimed 9 billion so if you have proof Amway is lying about their income you need to report those tax cheats to the IRS. Never heard from that Amway loser again!

    2. Keep in mind: in China, MLMs are actually illegal. Flat out illegal! They're allowed to sell their products as just retail, but not to employ the MLM model to pay salespeople. Unfortunately, there's no profit whatsoever in doing things the legal way. There's no market demand for any MLM's products. So recently, it came out that MLMs still operate on the sly there--they pay massive bribes to the government and various officials, as well as to the media to keep negative news from the public. Two Herbalife managers got in trouble for that just this past November I think.

      In China, MLM owners get involved in organized crime -- and it can get really violent. A few years ago, one of these MLM-pushing gangs beat a college student to DEATH because he didn't want to recruit for their MLM anymore. And MLMs sucker in various poor people in China and keep them living in tenements and barely fed, forcing them to recruit more suckers.

      USANA is another MLM that's been caught breaking Chinese law there (they do overpriced supplements of dubious value). The gubmint has said it's gonna crack down hard on MLMs.

      But you have to think Amway and other MLM scams must eye the Chinese market with great lust. When USANA operated illegally there, they brought in about $1Bn a YEAR in annual revenue. Herbalife's illegal operations made up damn near 1/5 of their take annually before the gubmint caught up with them.

      It's like fundies know that they MUST expand to overseas nations like India and China to have any hope of survival. MLMs are the same way for the same reason. Americans see them and know them for what they are. But the Chinese just don't have our decades of experience to tell them to steer clear of these scammers.

    3. Cas - when we were in ScAmway our cult leaders were always looking for recruits who were of Chinese descent who could help them get downline in China. So I doubt that's changed.

      Just because something is illegal that won't stop Amway or their army of Ambots. These fucktards all have these overly high opinions of themselves and believe that they're above the law because they're worshippers of the Great Amway God.

      That's the kind of arrogance that usually does them in!

      Although there might be some profit in retail sales because Amway overprices their shit, what kind of profit can they make in countries where there's a lot of poor people who can't afford basic necessities. You're looking at a government that controls the income of their citizens. The government kind of operates the same way Amway does and doesn't need the competition! It's not a society that wants an American company to show up on their soil and make a profit.

  3. The fake story about "quitting your job," and "walking out," and then going home in a limo to "smash your alarm clock" is nothing but an Amway myth, told over and over again in many forms. Its purpose is to fill stupid IBOs with ecstatic expectations, and to keep them locked into the Amway racket.

    The aim of the myth is to generate false hope, and to convince losers that some day they will be winners, if only they hang in there and keep on spending money month after month in the Amway bullshit game.

    1. Anonymous - yeah it's just another Amway fairy tale. As you said to provide false hope and keep the Ambot hanging in long enough for the day they too can smash their alarm clock.

      I mean really you don't need to be in the Amway cult to go out and smash up your alarm clock.

Comments are moderated but we publish just about everything. Even brainwashed ambots who show up here to accuse us of not trying hard enough and that we are lazy, quitters, negative, unchristian dreamstealers. Like we haven’t heard that Amspeak abuse from the assholes in our upline!

If your comment didn’t get published it could be one of these reasons:
1. Is it the weekend? We don’t moderate comments on weekends. Maybe not every day during the week either. Patience.
2. Racist/bigoted comments? Take that shit somewhere else.
3. Naming names? Public figures like politicians and actors and people known in Amway are probably OK – the owners, Diamonds with CDs or who speak at functions, people in Amway’s publicity department who write press releases and blogs. Its humiliating for people to admit their association with Amway so respect their privacy if they’re not out there telling everyone about the love of their life.
4. Gossip that serves no purpose. There are other places to dish about what Diamonds are having affairs or guessing why they’re getting divorced. If you absolutely must share that here – don’t name names. I get too many nosy ambots searching for this. Lets not help them find this shit.
5. Posting something creepy anonymously and we can’t track your location because you’re on a mobile device or using hide my ass or some other proxy. I attracted an obsessed fan and one of my blog administrators attracted a cyberstalker. Lets keep it safe for everyone. Anonymous is OK. Creepy anonymous and hiding – go fuck yourselves!
6. Posting something that serves no purpose other than to cause fighting.
7. Posting bullshit Amway propaganda. We might publish that comment to make fun of you. Otherwise take your agenda somewhere else. Not interested.
8. Notice how this blog is written in English? That's our language so keep your comments in English too. If you leave a comment written in another language then we either have to use Google translate to put it into English so everyone can understand what you wrote or we can hit the Delete button. Guess which one is easier for us to do?
9. We suspect you're a troublemaking Amway asshole.
10. Your comment got caught in the spam filter. Gets checked occasionally. We’ll get to you eventually and approve it as long as it really isn’t spam.
