Fuck You IBO!

It finally happened! Someone did a Google search for “fuck you IBO” and found my blog! You guessed it. Number 1 on the search engine!

Yes this is definitely the place to be if you want to tell any IBO you’ve ever met: “Fuck you!” Or live vicariously through me saying it.

Depending on your perspective there are different types of IBO’s to say fuck you to:

1. from the point of view of someone who is not associated with Amway and does not want to be associated with Amway and does not want to be hounded by Amway IBO’s

2. from the point of view of someone who has a spouse, family member, or good friend who is an Amway IBO

3. from the point of view of a former IBO who has found out the truth about Amway and the tool scam

So rather than say fuck you over and over in each sentence I’ll just say it once at the top of the list.

FUCK YOU IBO:

1.      for saying where else can you start up your own business for only $150 but neglecting to mention all the other costs once you’ve paid your start up fee

OK I think I’ve said enough fuck you’s for now. If I keep thinking about it the list will keep growing and I have to stop this post sometime! Feel free to load up the comments with the many ways you want to say FUCK YOU IBO

Do You Agree?

When I attended Amway meetings our sack of shit Platinum used to play this dumb ass game that I call “do you agree”.

Its all part of the subtle brainwashing techniques that are used in the Amway cult.

He’d start off by saying things to get the group to agree with him, things that would be hard to disagree with like does everyone agree that there is a painting on the wall of a lighthouse. Does everyone agree that Washington DC is our nations capital. That sort of thing.

Now that the Platinum has the group agreeing as one on what he is saying is true he moves on to other points that people may or may not agree with but due to peer pressure and the cult setting you don’t dare disagree with what everyone else in the room is nodding their heads to.

Does everyone agree that its stupid to have a job where you make the boss rich.

Does everyone wish that their boss paid them more money.

Does everyone wish their boss gives them more time off work and still pays them.

Does everyone agree that its better to be a business owner than an employee.

Does everyone agree that if you own your own shop that its smarter to do all your shopping from your own store instead of shopping at someone else’s store and making that other business owner richer.

I can argue all those points though I’d probably look like a moron if I argued that the lighthouse painting looks more to me like a bunch of dogs playing poker or that New York City is the capital.

Is it stupid to have a job? No not when theres bills to be paid. Who says the boss is getting rich. Maybe he’s just covering all his business and personal expenses and has nothing left over for retirement savings. Not all businesses are high earners and make the owner rich. The real point here is that the Platinum is putting the seed into the Amway cult followers head that having a job is stupid.

As for more money and time off work we’d all like that. Most people think they’re worth more than what they’re being paid. Many times business owners don’t take time off work for vacations especially if they’re a one man show. Didn’t think of that did you you sack of shit Platinum! Those questions don’t do much other than get the Amway cult follower to start disliking their job and their boss because they don’t get enough salary and vacation.

Does everyone want to be a business owner instead of an employee? Not necessarily. Not everyone has the finances, brain power, leadership, drive, interest, physical or mental ability to be a business owner. Not everyones got what it takes. Doesn’t mean they’re any less of a human being. Though that’s how the Amway cult leaders want to make their ambots feel that they’re low life bastards if they’re employees instead of business owners.

As for buying from your own shop, if your prices are too high then you’d be a fucking moron to buy from your own shop if you can get better quality and better prices from a competitor. The sack of shit Platinum wants the ambots to understand that they better do all their own shopping from Amway. They better not sneak off to the drugstore and buy toothpaste.

If you’re a brainwashed ambot and agree with the sack of shit Platinum on simple points that just makes it easier for him when the more intense brainwashing into the Amway cult gets underway.

Can You Get Someone Out of Amway?

Every day my blog gets visitors who are searching for how to get someone out of Amway. Lately I’ve had a few people leave comments about how to get a friend or family member out of Amway.

Unfortunately there is no one size fits all answer for how to get someone out of Amway. This is an evil cult. The Amway commissioned salespeople are built up to think that they are big important business owners and are given this dumb fuck title called IBO = Independent Business Owner. The IBO attends countless Amway meetings where they are supposedly given business advice but instead are actually brainwashing sessions.

And yes I know because I was dragged into many Amway cult meetings. No concrete business advice is ever given. No information on getting yourself registered as a business, getting tax numbers, getting a business bank account, getting a business license, getting business insurance, writing a business plan, creating a profit and loss statement, etc, etc. Some “business advice” given at Amway meetings is to buy from your own store and buy tickets to the next Amway function. Don’t have anything to do with people who won’t support your Amway business. I have a whole bunch more dumb ass “business advice” given at Amway meetings such as don’t dress like a slut but I’m not going over them now.

Oh wait lets not forget this piece of business advice that I have only heard in Amway not in any other business. You must ask permission from the Amway upline before you do anything or buy anything. Cult cult cult cult cult!!!!!!

Because the Amway cult tells you to shun your family and friends people in Amway become your only friends. The only people who can be trusted. The only people who have your best interests at heart. Amway cult leaders brainwash their followers to stay away from “negative” people - that would be everyone who does not want to sign up with the Amway cult or buy shitty overpriced Amway products.

The Amway cult follower has new friends and spends hours with them every night loving and worshipping their Amway cult leader. To please their cult leader they have to buy everything they’re told to buy: premier membership to WWDB, Communikate voice mail, tickets to Amway functions, CD’s, books, and anything else for sale that will make the upline rich.

If they’re a good little ambot the Amway cult leader will lavish praise and attention on them and highlight them at the next Scamway meeting. If they’re bad and miss a meeting or don’t buy enough shit the cult leader will punish them with a fire and brimstone rant and ridicule and mock them at the next Scamway meeting.

But how do you get someone out of Amway? Unfortunately all you can usually do is let the brainwashed ambot dig their own grave. Once they max out their credit cards and drain their bank account they can’t keep tithing the great Amway god. They probably are facing foreclosure, bankruptcy, maybe divorce. When they stop listening to brainwashing CDs and attending cult meetings their mind starts to clear. And they quit. Usually happens inside a year, maybe two years. Any longer than that inside the Amway cult the person is usually a lifer.

I’ve had a few desperate visitors leave comments asking how to get their loved one out and there really is no answer but here are links to resources that might help.

Merchants of Deception is a free ebook written by former Emerald Eric Scheibeler. He talks about the brainwashing and how he only earned about $35,000/year when he was at a level where he expected to be earning at least 100k based on Amway propaganda and what he’d heard from Diamond speakers. He uncovered the real money to be made in Amway was the sale of motivational materials - books, tapes/CDs, and speaking at functions. Its a really chilling read at times. Everything he said about Amway meetings I heard the same thing too. I could have been there. What he described was what I’d experienced. And most importantly he tells how 99% of IBOs will never make money in Amway. Reading it shows the lies that were told to us were the same lies he heard and the realization that no matter how hard we tried to make money at Amway, it just ain’t possible.

A few years ago NBC Dateline exposed the Amway scam. They covered the brainwashing and showed scenes at arenas that show this cult in action. They catch IBO’s lying - not that that’s difficult! They all lie! The above author Eric Scheibeler is interviewed for this TV show.

Waking Up When I’m Not Done Sleeping

Last night was one of those nights when I kept waking up. I couldn’t stay asleep. I finally woke up just after 6am an ungodly hour of the day for me. I’ll probably go outside and lie down on the lounge chair with a book and end up falling asleep in the sun and then I’ll really be groggy for the rest of the day!

At the many Amway meetings I attended the cult leader speaking to the group would say something to the effect of “wouldn’t it be great to wake up in the morning when you’re done sleeping”. I know I heard our sack of shit Platinum said that at every Scamway meeting that his wife gets up once she’s done sleeping. Sounds a little irresponsible when you have school age children. Their kids were teenagers - a boy and a girl - I think about 13 and 14 at the time. Does mom not want to make sure the kids are getting themselves out of bed on time, eating a decent breakfast, packing a lunch, and making sure they get out the door? Would Platinum dad be doing all this? Unlikely. That asshole is a male chauvinist pig and childcare he would put under the category of “woman’s work”. In which case his wife is very likely getting out of bed when the sack of shit shakes her awake and says “you’re done sleeping. Get up now! I want my fucking breakfast!”

The main reason the Platinum says his wife gets out of bed when she’s done sleeping is to sneer at the downline who have jobs and set their alarm clock daily and get out of bed in time to get to work.

“Wake up when you’re done sleeping” is something I have a hard time getting my head wrapped around. First off most parents who have school age children don’t laze around in bed and get up when they’re “done sleeping”. Maybe - and that’s a big maybe depending on how mature and responsible the kid is - once the kid is a junior or senior and is capable of getting themselves out of bed on time, dressed, eat breakfast and off to school. Parents who have younger children need to get them out of bed, dressed, prepare breakfast, fix a lunch bag, and walk them to school unless there are older siblings who can walk with the younger child. Its my guess that most stay at home parents wake up by at least 7am. They probably don’t go back to bed once everyone is out the door either.

Unless of course you’re a lazy ass IBO who is following the upline’s advice about not getting out of bed until you’re done sleeping.

Unlike what the Amway assholes say about wouldn’t it be nice not to have to wake up to an alarm clock every morning I very rarely set my alarm clock. If I set my alarm its because I have somewhere to be early. Alarm clock or not I’d say that I very rarely wake up when I’m “done sleeping”. Like today for example! I ain’t done sleeping yet! So I’m working on a blog post!

Just because Platinums and Diamonds praise the value of staying in bed until you’re “done sleeping” doesn’t mean its something everyone aspires to do and not something that is necessarily practical. I guess none of them ever heard of Benjamin Franklin and “early to bed early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”.

I wouldn’t say that I necessarily go to bed early though since we’re no longer in Amway I’m able to get to bed before midnight. Does it make me healthy waking up early? When I get up I walk the dog, have something light to eat, and then I either swim or do yoga. Healthy enough I suppose. Or healthier than lying around in bed until I’m “done sleeping”.

Let’s compare that to an Amway IBO. Say the lazy bastard hauls ass out of bed around noon. They go to the kitchen to prepare a meal of an energy drink, food bar, and vitamins. Next will probably be checking email, text messages, and making lots of phone calls. Next thing its late in the afternoon and the laundry and housecleaning aren’t done. What about yard work? When was the last time the lawn was mowed or the garden weeded? Who’s got time for that? Now its time for counselling with downline because they’re starting to get off work now and then the 8pm board plan meeting and the night owl. Arrive back home around 2am and do it all over again the next day.

Lying around in bed is a waste of time to many people. I’ve always gone with the philosophy that the quicker I can get things done the quicker I can relax. Even though I can lay around in bed until noon if I wanted I don’t do it because the day is getting away from me.

Waking up when I’m done sleeping does not work for me.

Neither does waking up when I’m not done sleeping!

But I still press on.

At least I’m not an Amway asshole who lies around in bed half the day because of a feeling of entitlement because that’s what the upline tells them to aspire to - get up when they’re done sleeping.

Amway IBOs Are Lousy Employees

I’ve been to enough Amway meetings where the Platinum or Diamond speaker shows contempt to anyone who has a job.

They sneer at people who have jobs. They put down people who have jobs. They criticize people who have jobs. They demand to know why IBO’s are still working for other people. How come their Amway business isn’t successful so that they can retire.

Amway cult leaders brainwash their followers into believing that J.O.B.s are evil and that nobody who is in Amway should suffer the injustice of working for an employer and make the boss richer. The Amway cult leaders go on and on and on why J.O.B.s should be hated, the boss should be hated, and the coworkers should be hated.

WWDB = World Wide Destructive Bastards and nothing brings the upline Amway assholes more happiness than destroying the lives of their cult followers. All part of the scheme to make them more dependent on the Amway cult leaders.

Soon the ambots duplicate their upline and sneer at people who have jobs and show contempt for people who work for someone else. These ambots hold down jobs themselves. In fact its how they can afford to be in the expensive Amway social club. When we were in Amway no one in our WWDB line other than ourselves owned their own business or were self-employed and very few crossline were self-employed.

Armed with the hateful things they have been brainwashed to think by their Amway cult leaders about people with J.O.B.s it doesn’t take long for their shitty attitude to infiltrate the workplace. Ambots criticize their co-workers and probably their boss because they’re all fucking morons for having a J.O.B. and working for someone else instead of themselves. They probably start complaining about how much they hate their job and they can’t wait until they’re finally free, thanks to Amway.

Better keep your mouths shut or that day might come sooner than you think! And you won’t be financially free when it does!

No workplace needs a fucking Amway IBO bringing the moral down and pissing off the other employees who have to listen to the Amway drunken IBO spout off their brainwashed bullshit.

I was amazed at the number of ambots in our line and crossline who became unemployed. I could certainly understand why their employers didn’t want to keep them around because all ambots have this brainwashed “J.O.B.s Suck” attitude. I never saw any of them find another J.O.B. while we were still in Amway and most unemployed ambots resorted to taking odd jobs wherever they could find them.

One of our friends found out when he hired an ambot that the bastard didn’t get much work done but wanted to be paid top dollar just for showing up and spending huge amounts of time on his cell phone, calls and texts. If that wasn’t bad enough he brought a boom box and blasted out the latest Amway CD from his tools order. That job didn’t last long for him!

I wouldn’t hire that bastard again either!

But then I wouldn’t have hired him in the first place! Never hire an Amway IBO! Their work ethic SUCKS!!!

Then there’s an ambot from Edmonton who showed up on my blog the other day to leave a comment that he can’t wait to be “free” thanks to Amway so he will no longer have to suffer putting up with his coworkers who are all a bunch of assholes. I bet his boss would love to know that! Not to mention knowing that his employee is fucking around surfing the Internet on a government issued computer for an hour (maybe longer, just an hour on my blog) instead of getting his work done. Yup Alberta taxpayers dollars hard at work at this government office.

This is exactly the type of attitude towards J.O.B.s that ambots are brainwashed by Amway’s cult leaders that often puts them out of work very quickly. Ambots have the attitude that working a J.O.B. is soooooo beneath them but out of the goodness of their hearts they will show up to bless their boss and their coworkers with their presence but you better not expect them to actually do any work while they’re there. Oh they still want the boss to pay them for showing up but they’ll be too busy conducting Amway business to get anything else done.

Is that whole showing up routine. Like when you show up at an Amway meeting and the sack of shit Platinum tells everyone they are winners just by virtue of showing up. And if they religiously show up for the next two to five years then they will become rich beyond their wildest dreams and Amway will send them gazillions of money just because they showed up.

I would never hire an IBO for any job for the reasons I’ve already listed. They’re negative toward work, they waste too much time on the phone of Internet, they want to crank the volume on Amway CD’s, and they have a bad attitude. You pay somebody to get a job done you want them to do the work and not fuck around with texting, phone calls, surfing the Internet, recruiting prospects, selling Amway shit, blasting Amway motivational CD’s, and otherwise being annoying.

Lazy ass ambots need not apply!

Facebook and Amway

Seeing as how Facebook stock is released for trading today I thought I would bring it up and how I remembered or don’t remember Facebook being talked about at Amway meetings.

I remember at Amway cult meetings our sack of shit Platinum would talk about Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg. I’m a little foggy on what the Amway asshole was spouting off on because he often went off on rants for an hour or so getting distracted constantly and heading off on a new rant as something else to bitch about crossed his mind.

Facebook started trading on the stock market today May 18 2012 at $38 except it shot up to an opening of $42. It hit a high of $45 before settling in around the $40 mark. If its typical of most stocks opening day will hit a high and then it will go down so often its a good idea to wait a few weeks or months before buying.

When Facebook first started many employees were offered stock options so today many of Facebook’s staff are now worth tens of millions of dollars. Many of them are in their twenties. Many of them will walk away and never work again for the rest of their lives.

A concept that is pretty much foreign when it comes to Amway. The only people who don’t have to work for the rest of their lives and have millions of dollars rolling in would be the heirs of the founders.

Ambots go around bragging that Amway made $11 billion in sales last year. I’ve had brainwashed ambots leave those comments on my blog. That’s great for the owners of the company but not so much for employees. Well unless any employees are given profit sharing options. I doubt it because I’ve had employees show up here to say that Amway gives them fuck all in benefits.

Take that 11 billion in sales. That’s not profit. That’s sales. Now comes overhead - cost of production, cost of maintaining Amway buildings, payroll, taxes, etc. I’m not sure how much is leftover after all financial obligations are met for profit for the Amway owners. Maybe a billion or so? The owners ain’t splitting their profit with the lowly employees/IBOs. They’re donating to charity so they can take less of a hit on their personal income taxes and they are living in mansions and jet setting around the world. The heirs are not showing up at Amway functions flogging their wares.

The majority of IBO’s get a commission check of around $10/month from Amway if they bought the required quota of 100PV about $300 worth of Amway products that month. That’s how Amway makes that $11 billion in sales. An army of brainwashed ambots who will keep buying these overpriced products until they get tired of losing money and quit. Its bad enough losing all that money buying Amway products when the same products can be purchased at grocery and drug stores for less, therefore saving money. I might not be getting a $10 commission check from Walmart but if I spend $75 buying the same products that it costs me $300 to buy from Amway then I’m coming out ahead. Especially since I’m buying better quality products from Walmart. I mean nothing pisses me off more than spending 3 to 4 times more money for Amway’s shitty dishwasher soap that doesn’t get my dishes clean when I can buy a better product at Walmart for a fraction of the price and I don’t have to wash dishes a second time around by hand.

I would say Facebook has probably created a lot more millionaires than Amway when it comes to people in their 20’s who can now retire and never work again.

I would say that Facebook doesn’t get called a scam or a pyramid scheme nowhere near as much as Amway does.

I would say that Facebook created a lot more people than Amway who were able to work for two to five years and then walk away and retire on their riches or have residual income rolling in for the rest of their lives.

I’d say Facebook doesn’t get accused of brainwashing and using mind control techniques as much as Amway does.

I’d say Facebook doesn’t get accused of followers losing tons of money the way Amway does. At least not yet! Who knows what the stock market will do!

I’d say Facebook doesn’t get accused of destroying marriages and causing as many divorces as Amway does.

I’d say Facebook doesn’t get accused of causing as much emotional distress as Amway does.

I’d say Facebook doesn’t get accused of ripping people off like Amway does.

So just what did our sack of shit Platinum say about Facebook? Its starting to come back to me now! Mostly he bitched about this 22 year old founder who is worth billions of dollars. The fucker was probably jealous! The typical WWDB doctrine of destroying what other people have because nothing makes those World Wide Destructive Bastards happier than when they’re destroying other people’s relationships and finances.

Mostly the sack of shit Platinum talked about using Facebook to snipe prospects into Amway. Not a good idea because Facebook will suspend your account if you’re spamming recruits.

It costs $300/month minimum to invest in “your own” Amway business. For that you get back a $10 commission check. Take that same $300 and buy 7 shares of Facebook stock. Or if you’re a CORE ambot you spend closer to $700/month investing in “your business” and you can take that $700 and buy 17 shares of Facebook stock. Even if Facebook drops in half overnight and you sell, you still make more money than that $10 you get back from Amway! And you probably have a whole lot more fun losing that money than you do losing even more money in Amway! Because when you’re losing money in Amway you still have to put up with being abused from the assholes in your Amway upline. At least when you lose money in Facebook nobody is abusing you and calling you a loser quitter negative unchristian dreamstealer when you decide to quit and sell your shares.

I know I’d rather go around bragging that I own shares in Facebook stock than bragging that I’m an Amway “business owner”. One of them gains respect in the eyes of the person you told that too. The other sinks you a few notches down the old shithole that you’re a dumb ass for putting your money into a pyramid scheme.

Amway Will Ruin Your Life

People are finding their way to my blog after searching for “Amway will ruin your life”.

I’ve seen a lot of people leave comments on the Internet and even on my blog about the financial and emotional devastation that Amway inflicted upon them. 99% of IBO’s who sign up to be commissioned sales agents with Amway will lose money. That’s just the way the system is designed and part of the reason that Amway is known as a scam, a pyramid scheme, and Scamway.  

The minimum monthly amount of money an IBO has to spend in purchasing Amway products is about $300 to reach 100PV that magical number at which Amway will send out a commission check of about $10. But it don’t stop there. $50/month for premier membership to WWDB (World Wide Destructive Bastards) another $35 for monthly Communikate services, say at least $50/month buying useless “motivational” CDs and books, paying to go to Amway meetings, paying even more dollars to attend out of town Amway functions because then you have ticket costs plus transportation, food, hotel, etc. Call it an average of $700/month if you even out the costs of the functions over a year. That is the bare minimum if you don’t want your sack of shit Platinum ridiculing you at Amway meetings for not coughing up the cash to meet these requirements. CORE ambots or at least those who want to impress their upline will probably spend much more than $300/month on useless shitty overpriced Amway products and more on the tool scam.

How much you money you lose depends on how long you stick it out in the Amway cult. Could only be a few hundred bucks to several thousand to tens of thousands of dollars in losses. Much of those losses come from savings, selling the house and using the equity to “invest” in your Amway business, or going into credit card debt or taking out bank loans.

Some people can bounce back from the financial losses. A lot depends on how much they lost and how much income they currently earn. A person in their 20’s who loses $50,000 is more likely to recover than a senior citizen who wiped out their entire savings to chase the Amway nightmare. In many cases even though an IBO may have been involved in Scamway for only a year or two it takes many years to recover financially. Some ambots take harder hits than others and have to declare bankruptcy. Other ambots lose their houses because their upline counselled with them to skip a few mortgage payments in order to afford to go to the next Scamway function and the bank foreclosed on them.

Here’s a tip. If you’re planning to skip a mortgage payment talk to your bank first. Many banks allow their customers to skip a month due to temporary financial setbacks. Other banks let their customers skip a few payments but require them to make up the payments over the next few months adding on extra amounts to the mortgage payment until they’re caught up. If you skip a mortgage payment because you need to money to fund your Amway upline’s goals and stiff the bank without first discussing it with the manager they’re not going to be very happy. Banks don’t want to foreclose. They don’t really want to deal with someone’s house. They just want their money.

Its like the Amway cult leaders. They don’t really want to deal with their downline - they just want their money.

Another way Amway ruins people’s lives is by destroying relationships. The Amway cult leaders start out by separating the ambots from anyone in their lives who are not in Amway. That takes care of a lot of friends and family. If the ambot’s wife has not interest in Amway and can’t stand the Amway assholes then they work hard at convincing the ambot to leave the relationship because the Amway asshole cult leaders know that the spouse can get control of the finances and stop the flow of money to Amway. But sometimes the brainwashed ambot chooses the Amway assholes over their spouse. There’s another marriage ending in divorce thanks to Scamway.

Amway ruins many lives and people take to the Internet to share their Amway horror stories. Thats why at Amway meetings the Amway cult leaders order the ambots not to look for “negative” information on the Internet about Amway. According to Amway assholes the Internet is a bathroom wall polluted by losers and quitters.

And of course everyone finds their way to Anna Banana’s chamber of Amway horrors telling about the treatment you’ll receive from Amway assholes and this is the hell you have to look forward to if you stay in Scamway - being abused by your upline.

So one more time I send out a big old FUCK YOU to two of the biggest bastards who tried to ruin our lives - the asshole that sponsored us into Amway and our sack of shit Platinum!

If You Don’t Attend Amway Meetings What Happens?

An ambot who must be on the verge of quitting posed the question “if you don’t attend Amway meetings what happens” into the old Google search engine.

Well first of all and most importantly you will feel a tremendous amount of relief that you have escaped from an Amway cult meeting! No brainwashing tonight!

The next thing that happens is that you’ll be up shit creek with your Amway upline. Remember how when you were a kid and your mother used to bitch at you everytime you brought a frog or snake into the house? Well your mama ain’t got nothing those Amway assholes who will bitch and bitch and bitch because you didn’t show up for a meeting!

When we started attending Amway meetings our sack of shit Platinum used a whiteboard to show the top 5 most important things in his life and this is the order we should follow in our lives.

1. God

2. Spouse

3. Family

4. Job

5. Amway

I’ve gone over this before. If I ain’t number one on my spouse’s list there will be hell to pay later!

The real Amway list of order of importance goes like this:

1. Amway
2. Amway

3. Amway

4. Amway

5. Amway

When you’re a brainwashed Amway ambot there ain’t NOTHING in your life that comes ahead of Amway. NOTHING!

If you skip a meeting because your spouse or family has something else planned or you got called in to work, the fucking assholes in your Amway upline will phone and text and bitch and bitch and bitch at you for missing a “very important” Amway meeting. And they ain’t done giving you shit just for the one meeting. The sack of shit Platinum will mock and ridicule you to the group of people who did who up for the Amway meeting and the next time you show up the sack of shit Platinum will mock you and embarrass you in front of the other ambots for your disobedience because you have a life and had something else to do than go to a fucking Amway cult meeting.

So that answers the question of the hell you’ll go through by the Amway upline assholes if you miss an Amway meeting.

And really why even do an Internet search to find the answer to that question because you pretty much know the answer because you’ve been to other Amway meetings when an ambot didn’t show up and listened to the sack of shit Platinum rant about it for an hour. You know what’s going to happen when those Amway assholes gossip about the missing ambot. You’ve heard it before and been part of the ambot group mentality who laughed at the expense of the dumb ass ambot who dared not to show up for an Amway cult meeting.

The bigger picture is once you miss an Amway meeting then its easier to miss another Amway meeting and then another and another and then skip the next Amway function. That’s what the upline Amway assholes are afraid of. Missing ambot = missing money going into their pockets. Once an ambot stops going to Amway meetings and listening to the fucked up Amway assholes on CDs and functions they begin to deprogram themselves and stop buying shitty overpriced useless Amway products. With a clearer head they realize they’re not making money in Amway and start looking around on the Internet and realize that 99% of IBO’s lose money. That suggests that “success is not right around the corner” as the Amway upline assholes pretend it is.

Yup. Good bye! See ya!

But hey what happens if you still want to hang out with the assholes in your Amway upline? Maybe you actually like the destructive bastards. You can still be friends right?

Nope. Amway assholes are only friends with people who pay them to be friends by buying Amway products and motivational tools. These greedy bastards are not friends with anyone who is not giving them money.

So what happens if you don’t attend an Amway meeting?

Once you get past the shit kicking the Amway upline assholes give you and that abuse is going to make most people not want to go to any more Amway meetings then a peaceful calm descends over your life once again. You start to get your financial situation under control. Emotionally you start to get your life back on track and repair relationships you destroyed while in the Amway cult.

The best part is you no longer have to put up with Amway assholes!

It is so liberating to say to your Amway upline: FUCK YOU!

Or in my case blog: fuck you Amway assholes!

Amway Ambots Sniping Barnes & Noble Customers

“Amway how to strike up conversation in Barnes & Noble” was the criteria an ambot used to search Google and ended up at my blog.

Its a big no no for IBO’s to harrass customers shopping at Barnes & Noble. http://www.amquix.info/quixtar_barnes_noble_stop.html

The problem is information control from Amway’s upline cult leaders. Memos like this are not sent out to individual IBO’s but rather to the people Amway considers (cult) “leaders”. It is their responsibility to notify their downline but not everyone gets notified.

Especially IBO’s who signed up after this was sent out from head office. Undoubtedly complaints were coming in Barnes & Noble management for a few years. In its typical tradition of Amway employees working at head office not giving a shit what Amway IBO’s are doing likely nothing was done for the longest time. I’m not sure what threats it took from Barnes & Noble to the big shots at Scamway before the letter was sent out to the Amway cult leaders to deal with the annoying ambots.

I can’t say as I go around striking up a conversation with anyone when I’m shopping at Barnes & Noble. Sometimes I can’t find the book I’m looking for which is annoying because when I checked B&N website earlier I saw my location had books in stock so I’ll ask a clerk for assistance and they’ll lead me right to it. Sometimes someone will be in the same section as me looking for a book but I still don’t strike up a conversation with them. If I was going to and I noticed they were holding a book I’d read I might say something like that’s a good book one of my favorite writers or that book sucks save your money. But not usually. People don’t like to be harrassed when they’re shopping. Even more so if they’re flipping through a book and reading passages trying to make a decision on whether or not to buy. They don’t need some fucking Amway ambot sniping them and saying hey I’m a business owner and I sell books too. Yup B&N will want the throw that fucker out of their store for trying to take their business away from them. Competition!

Bottom line is Amway’s head office doesn’t give a flying fuck what the IBOs are doing. I’ve complained about lies I heard from our upline and head office typical lazy ass response is to claim they are not responsible for anything said at Amway meetings and if we have a problem to take it up with the upline who lied to us.

So really what happens if a manager from Barnes & Noble calles Amway’s I-don’t-give-a-shit customer service desk to complain about ambots sniping customers shopping in their stores. The response they’ll get is - find someone who gives a shit and tell them! Its not like anything will happen to the ambot. What are they going to say? You’re fired. And we’ve just lost another income stream. Ha ha. Not likely.

If you’re an Amway asshole - stay out of Barnes & Noble!

If you are an Amway asshole and you see me in Barnes & Noble - don't fuck with me!

If I Can Do It, Anyone Can!

Is there anything more stupid and insulting than people who say “if I can do it then anyone can”?

Its like they’re implying “I’m such a big fucking moron and if I can do it then anyone who isn’t a fucking moron can. And in the unlikely event that you can’t do it then you’re an even bigger fucking moron than I am!”

Like take that teenage boy who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge last year, probably one of the world’s most famous suicide spots. This kid jumps for the hell of it to see if he could. A nearby surfer paddled up to him and got him back to shore and chewed him out the whole way. The kid was relatively unhurt from the jump. So does this teen go around bragging if he can jump off the Golden Gate Bridge and not get hurt then anyone can. He jumped and survived. If he can do it then anyone can. Though I’d go out on a limb here and say the majority of jumpers off the Golden Gate Bridge are not hoping to survive.

What about people who say if I can ride a motorbike then anyone can. Also implying that if they can do it then anyone who can’t has to be a fucking moron. Not everyone has the talent, the balance, the fearlessness, or whatever it takes to ride one those things. Some can. Some can’t. What about people who play football and say if I can do it then anyone can. Same problem. Not everyone has the athletic ability or desire to run around a field chasing a ball and tackling others or ending up on the bottom of a dogpile.

What we used to hear at Amway meetings when the Platinum or Diamonds talked was “if I can do it then anyone can”. I heard it a lot. Also “its so easy anyone can do it”. Yup the implication is there. If you can’t do what I can do even though it is SOOOOOOO easy, and I can do it and I’m already a loser moron, then you have got to be the world’s biggest fucking moron loser!

Not everyone can be a good convincing liar.

Not everyone can bullshit people into believing the reason Amway products are so high priced is because the price reflects the high value/quality of the product.

Not everyone has the qualities to be a good cult leader.

Not everyone can learn brainwashing techniques.

Not everyone is good at pretend games. (I own my own business! I’m a business owner!)

Not everyone can treat other people like shit.

Not everyone is obsessed with money like Amway ambots are.

Not everyone has a high limit on their credit card to keep buying expensive Amway products.

Not everyone has transportation to get them to the endless Amway meetings.

Not everyone enjoys being mocked when they admit they’re with Amway.

Not everyone can destroy other people’s lives walking all over them in their greedy pursuit of material possessions.

“If I can do it, anyone can.”

How about sending out a big fuck you to every Amway cult leader that says that!

Whether or not I “can” isn’t the point.

I “won’t”.

Not interested in your Amway bullshit so fuck off!
