Memories Of Obnoxious Amway Know-It-All Losers

The last time we ran the Join The Amway Cult And Become An Obnoxious Know It All post, one of our readers remembers what it’s like dealing with those Amway bastards.

 

I remember the Amway “know-it-all” types very well from the 1970s. God, they were obnoxious. They always had a kind of smirking, smug look on their faces, as if you were a naive fool and they were the ones who were knowledgable and sophisticated, especially if they happened to be older than you. And yes --in point of fact they were just hapless buffoons who didn’t know anything.

Much of this attitude could be traced to the self-congratulatory nature of the entire Amway racket, where you are constantly love-bombed about how brilliant and wonderful you are just for joining up. But some of it is from the kind of guy who typically joins Amway -- a small-town schmuck who is somewhat shrewd and clever, just enough to run his little dipshit business (a candy store, a barber shop, a gas station, etc.), and who thinks that he’s a sharp guy with a nose for a bargain.

I saw plenty of these dopes in Amway. They always talked down to others, as if they were superior and wiser. They walked around in baggy pants with suspenders, with their hands in their pockets jingling their change. They always “knew better” than you. They pretended to be skeptical about anything and everything that you mentioned. Whatever you told them, they’d smile patronizingly and say “Yeah, well... I know better than that.” They were typical small-town nobodies pretending to be special.

Amway depends on the inbred arrogance of the stupid, small-town man.

 

Join The Amway Cult And Become An Obnoxious Know It All

Another thing that really pissed me of about the Amway ambots I had to put up with was that every single one of those bastards was an expert on EVERYTHING! You name it those fuckers knew everything about the subject whether or not it had anything to do with Amway. The biggest bunch of bullshitters I’ve ever met in my life have all been Amway assholes.

The arrogance of those pompous Amway bastards is something I have never dealt with on such a high level of mass concentration before our time in the Amway hellhole. Fortunately it is something I’ve never had to put up with since we got the hell away from those Amway assholes!

You name it those Amway assholes pretend they’re an expert at it. I guess the fact that they run pretend businesses and they’re pretend business owners gives them all the credibility they need to be pretend experts on every subject under the sun.

I’m not saying that there are not ambots out there who don’t have expertise in certain areas through job, education, or life experiences. What I’m calling out are the Amway assholes who just be virtue of the fact that they are Amway IBO’s means that now makes them  card carrying know it alls. 

Those ambots are all experts when it comes to cars. Too bad none of them take their own fucking advice and drive around in shitmobiles that are 20 or 30 years old and always breaking down due to lack of maintenance. By that age many cars do run into mechanical problems and need to be completely overhauled. Being an Amway IBO means you are constantly broke because you have to hand over all your money to the Amway cult leaders so there is no money leftover for car maintenance or to save up to buy a new car.

Those Amway assholes are experts on all things plumbing and electrical even though most of them have never picked up a hammer or a screwdriver. I saw a house an Amway “expert” was working on. Some ceiling lights were falling out of their fixtures and he said he kept getting electrical shocks when he was touching sockets and switches. Oh gee I wonder why! The tile in the bathroom was not grouted right and squint and uneven. He was taking forever to paint because he had to keep stopping what he was doing to deal with the phone - calls and texts from the assholes in his Amway upline.

Those Amway assholes are experts when it comes to filling out your income tax. “Everything in Amway is a tax deduction! Claim that toilet paper!”

Those Amway assholes are “counsellors” even though they’ve never taken any formal training in counselling for behavior problems, emotional disorders, marital issues, etc. etc. “The facts don’t count!” Not when you’re an Amway asshole = automatic expert on everything!

Medical advice? Call an Amway Ambot. They’ll diagnose you and tell you the treatment consists of buying some overprice shitty Amway vitamins. Snake oil for whatever ails you! Pick up a case of Amway holy water! What’s the difference between Dr. Ambot and a  Nigerian scammer? Nothing! They’re both fucked up liars trying to scam you out of your money.

Amway ambots are self proclaimed experts on everything - know it all Amway assholes. If an Amway product isn’t working for someone then the ambot tells thems they’re not drinking the water right or they need more vitamins. Amway ambots viciously defend Amways “prestige” products. There’s nothing wrong with them - the problem lies with the user. Yup its the typical old Amway standby response of blaming the victim. Same thing with Amway’s prestige tampons. If they leak after 30 minutes then us women must be putting them in wrong. Couldn’t have anything to do with the inferior quality of these products could it? Hearing a man giving tampon advice makes most women break down into uncontrollable laughter! But that’s an Amway asshole for you! Experts on everything!

The arrogant pompous know it all Amway bastards that I had to suffer are the biggest bunch of assholes I’ve ever met in my life. Troublemaking bastards who can’t mind their own fucking business.

The one thing that I’m an expert at is blogging about what Amway assholes are really like! No Amway know it all expert in everything will ever be more expert than me than cursing out the fucking assholes in the Amway upline!

Amway Is Fucking Creepy!

I get a few Google searches ending up on the blog for “Amway is creepy”. The last search being done by someone in Sweden?! Hmmm.....

Seeing as how this blog is about #10 on the creepy search I thought I’d try to bump it up a bit. So bad news for anyone tuning in today to listen to me curse out my former upline or hear about Ambot’s adventures!

So is Amway creepy?

My upline is creepy and Amway IBO’s are creepy.

I don’t know anyone who works at the head office in Ada, Michigan nor any of the other regional offices around the states or in any other countries. My experience with Amway has to do with a couple of phone calls and speaking to an employee on the help (?) desk. A better name would be “unhelpful desk”. Or the “I don’t give a shit desk”.

What goes on inside the four walls of Amway? I can’t imagine its a whole lot more different than other companies. Inside the company moral may or may not be good, it might vary with different departments. Some managers may be nicer than others. Most companies have an executive team that figures out marketing strategies to increase sales and new product development. There are department managers, mid-level managers, supervisors, and a bunch of other employees scattered throughout the company. Nothing creepy about that. Many mid to large size companies have this kind of structure.

Like any other company Amway probably offers its employees certain perks in attempts to retain them: health package, pension plan, flex hours, gym club membership, etc. I wonder if Amway employees are given discounts if they purchase the overpriced products. I wonder if they’re given complimentary IBO registration. Even with employee retention practices in place Amway probably has the same kind of employee turnover as other companies, about 5% each month due to employees quitting, transferring, dying, or on various leaves.  

What about Amway employees? Are they creepy? I’m sure there are creepy brown nosed Amway employees. Every company harbors a few.

I read an article a few months ago that breaks down how employees fit into the corporate structure. About 20% of employees love their jobs and go out of their way to excel. About 60% of employees are average and get their work done and for the most part do a good job. The other 20% hate their jobs and don’t do a good job.

So who are the dangerous employees? The 20% who hate their job? Nope. One way or the other they don’t last long and then they’re no longer a problem for the company. The dangerous employees are the 60% average. They’ll get their job done but they won’t bust their ass doing so. They don’t really care one way or the other about the company. Its just a job. Its just a paycheck. If they find another job that pays better or has better benefits they’ll quit in a second. Amway is probably like every other corporation out there and only 20% of their employees like their job. That explains why when IBO’s try to get assistance from corporate chances are high they’ll be dealing with one of the other 80% and end up on the receiving end of disinterest, disdain, contempt, etc because they’re dealing with employees who either hate their job or don’t give a shit and don’t want to be bothered.

There are a lot of names to describe Amway - unethical, creepy, uncaring, bad reputation, pyramid scheme, overpriced, etc. Amway gets labelled with these adjectives because of their own don’t-give-a-shit employees and the actions of IBO’s.

The Internet has had a lot to do with getting the word out about Amway and IBO’s. I doubt Amway can recover and fix their image.

Certainly not as long as people are searching the Internet looking for information on “Amway is creepy”.

 

 

Amway The Scamster Company For Losers

Remember how Amway ambots strategically place Amway products or use them in hopes that others will ask about it and maybe want to buy it.

Prospect notices Ambot drinking Perfect Water and gloating about how this is the best water he’s ever tasted and how he buys it from his own company.

Prospect: Hey how much does that Perfect Water cost?

Ambot: $2 a bottle

Prospect: OK I’ll buy one and try it out.

Ambot: oh we don’t sell them singularly you got to buy a case. $50 please.

Prospect: are you shitting me? $50 for a case of water? Go fuck yourself.


Thanks to john doe for letting us that nothing has changed in Amway since the 90’s.


In the early ninety’s I was introduced to the scamster company by my boss.

He kept spraying the Glister spray in his mouth in front of all the employees. Sooner or later someone asks “hey, what you got there?” He tells us “I bought it from my own company.”

Little did we know that was the first lie we got hit with. Here he comes again with “hey, if you want to be financially free, I’m having a meeting over at my place.” Second lie. We were told to not call the company amway, but rather “the umbrella corporation” and if asked to say that we do sell some amway products. Third lie. Went to a few meetings, a seminar to meet the Diamonds and a few other money wasting events.

Heck, I even went “dream building” where your upline takes you around to look at rich houses and fancy cars.

Two things that broke me from the hypnotic spell of amway. 1. The seminar/conventions speakers. They sit up there and brag about all the stuff they bought, where they went hunting, all kinds of useless information. At the end of praising himself he threw up a few circles, wrote Amway in big letters, and he was done talking. I was pissed. 2. I couldn’t afford their products anymore. Back then they highly suggest you spend $150 per month on amway products. The problem was....$150 didn’t get you much stuff, so we had to go to Wal Mart to get the rest of the household items we needed.

We eventually stopped buying the amway products completely and started paying off all the debt we created with amway. Concentrated or not concentrated, their products are just way too overpriced.
