One of our readers shared a story about his Amway Emerald who’s the typical fucking asshole Ambot on a power trip.
One is that the bullying is real. One night, my upline
Emerald (URA) threw a fit because they didn't sell out their ticket allotment
to the upcoming biannual seminar (twice a year, $15 a head, usually in high
school or church auditoriums where an Emerald speaks). One night at a weekly
meeting, he talked about cream and scum and how cream rises and scum settles.
Talk about motivation to the majority of people there! Nothing like getting
called scum when you just paid $5 to hear that at a weekly meeting! The insults
are real and are not worth the time.
Secondly, when you are told to "not count costs" (because what
business owners count costs, right?), that should be a huge red flag because
you can lose thousands of dollars quick!
And one other thing, if you have to attend multiple meetings a week, then that
is a red flag. We used to have a "team meeting" twice a year at $5 a
head a week before a major conference. So we would have to attend that meeting
on a Saturday night, phone team at your upline Platinum or Emerald on Sunday
night, weekly business meeting on Tuesday night (which was moved from Thursday
night) at $5 a head, and then a major conference on Friday, Saturday, Sunday
conference at $93 a head (cheaper than most organizations) plus $60 to $300 or
so for hotel and parking depending on if you wanted to get stuffed five or six
to a room. And oh, after Sunday's session ends at around 4pm or so, you have to
then head to your upline's for either games or dodgeball or phone team to hear
even more speeches.
So that right there shows a typical week four times a year. Oh, and phone team
on that Saturday at conference after you had your team's breakout session
(because why not right?)
The moral is that the majority of people can make more money in one day of
doing Uber or working a part-time job, than all-together in Amway with the
money spent and the time wasted.
Oh, and don't forget. You can only have Ameay products to eat or drink at
events and Heaven forbid your upline sees you at the hotel restaurant getting
breakfast one morning.
I could go on and one but this is just a sample of four weeks a year at my
former organization.

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.
