Ambot
and I were probably the first IBO’s to check in at our hotel for the WWDB World
Wide Dream Builders Amway Spring Leadership function. We’d spent all day
driving and got there early evening. After putting our luggage in the room we
headed over to Barnes & Noble to get a book I wanted to read and then out
for dinner. IBO’s were arriving by the time we got back to the hotel.
The two employees working the hotel counter looked frazzled. And no wonder.
They were dealing with the Platinum’s henchman. I gather there’d been a number
of no shows and the problem was the Amway henchman had been screwing around
with people’s hotel reservations on the WWDB blocked rooms like he’d tried to
do with Ambot. Except now he was on the hook because he’d used his own credit
card to guarantee the rooms when he was so busy reassigning everyone and now he
was holding empty hotel rooms with no live bodies to put in them and he was
arguing with the staff about how his credit card was being charged for the
empty rooms. He arrived too late to cancel the rooms and incurred a one night
fee on all of them.
LOL!
To give the henchman credit - or lack thereof - I doubt the Amway asshole
thought about messing around with hotel rooms all on his own. The only possible
reason he’d have done this was on the direct orders of the sack of shit
Platinum who must have decided they better have empty rooms available for the
dozens of guests and prospects they’d been so sure were going to make the
pilgrimage to attend Spring Leadership and see what this “awesome” (LOL!) Amway
business opportunity was all about. Except the prospects/newbies were all no
shows leaving the henchman with a hotel bill for quite a few empty rooms that
he was trying to argue about with the staff who were charging him $100 x number
of rooms for one night’s cancellation policy. Most hotels have a policy that
you use a credit card to guarantee your room if you plan to arrive late, say
after 6pm. That way the hotel will hold the room for you all night instead of
selling it to someone who walks in off the street. If you don’t show up or fail
to cancel the room before the cut off time your credit card will be charged for
one night’s stay.
I’m not sure how that turned out but I hope the hotel stuck to their guns and
didn’t reverse the credit card charge. Would serve the Amway henchman right. I
mean what a dumb ass thing to do. Serves the bastard right for listening to the
dumb ass Platinum!
Oh and interestingly enough the sack of shit Platinum was staying at another
hotel that he deemed to be a better hotel. The only IBO’s “allowed” to stay at
that other hotel were those making it in “the business”, not the rest of us
lowly bastards. Ha ha, him and his wife were sharing a room with at least one
other couple that we knew of, maybe more. I guess that kills the mood if
romance is in the air! Or I suppose it heightens the mood if orgy is in the
air! Damn if I’d known he was staying at the other hotel I’d have booked a room
there just to piss off the bastard!
And to chalk up another hotel room getting charged to the henchman’s credit
card!
Yeah! Amway WWDB Spring Leadership sucks!!!!
Yeah! Fuck Amway!
What a total fucking asshole the Amway "henchman" was! He put himself on the hook for hundreds of dollars based on nothing but a stupid idea: namely, that there would be a great demand for hotel rooms from guests and potential recruits who would show up for this half-assed function. What a schmuck, as we say in Noo Yawk.
ReplyDeleteHere's some advice for anyone who goes to an overnight convention. Book your own rooms by yourself, in your own name, using your own credit card, at whatever hotel you happen to like. Don't let ANYBODY do it for you! Don't let ANYBODY make the arrangements for you!
You see, Amway is basically a cult. And cults hate private activity, private initiative, and private decision-making. They insist that you do everything in a group, under the direction of group leaders.
Hi Anonymous. I was fine booking the hotel room on my own but as you pointed out all cults hate when their followers do any activity on their own. Everyone in our Amway upline were a bunch of fucking assholes so nothing special about the henchman. And LOL that Ambots have so many hot prospects to bring to an Amway brainwashing function that they need to gather up as many hotel rooms as they can for these special guests to use LOL! Bunch of dumb shits.
