One night at dinner Ambot said something about me sending
him too many text messages because he has to stop what he’s doing to look at
them. I think I sent him 4. And OK I admit one text was about the dog wanting
to chase the cat but the rest were somewhat important reminders of things he’s
supposed to do.
So then I point out the obvious that I do not text him as much as those
fucking assholes in his Amway upline used to.
Yeah that shut him up!
There is no privacy when you’re in Amway. You are at the beck and call of the
fucking assholes in your Amway upline at all hours when you sign up with the
Amway cult. After my husband got involved in Amway his sponsor and upline felt
it was OK to phone and text whenever they wanted. It freaked me out when his
phone rang after we'd gone to bed or hearing a chime indicating a text message.
And it would bug the shit out of me that he had to be a good little Ambot and
answer the phone or immediately type back a text message. And then it would go
on and on. A few minutes later the text would chime again. And again. And
again.
It would piss me off and I'd tell him to ignore it. The problem is if he didn't
respond within a minute to a text, one of those upline Amway bastards would
phone and ask him if he got the text.
I know in this day and age of communications and instant messages and everyone
has a cell phone that the younger generation is phoning and texting at all
hours. When I was growing up my parents stressed phone calls should not be made
after 9pm unless it was an emergency. Early morning phone calls were a no-no
too. So my mind set is when the phone rings before 8am or after 9pm that
something bad has happened. My heart jumps to my throat and I am freaked out
that the caller is bringing me bad news: car crash, ambulance, hospital, house
on fire, death. The dog woke me up early around 6:30 and I couldn’t get back to
sleep so I went into the living room to read a book. At 7 the phone rang. Holy
shit! Freaked me right out, even more so when I saw on the call display it was
my parent’s number and was envisioning all kinds of medical emergencies.
Fortunately there was no problem except they were hungry and wanted to know if
we’d like to join them at IHOP.
I specifically remember one incident when Ambot had
pre-purchased a $25 ticket to an Artistry seminar. The night he was supposed to
go he realized he was double booked and had another function he had to attend.
He phoned some asshole in his Amway upline to tell him. I don’t think that
asshole really gave a flying fuck because he wasn't planning to attend the
Artistry seminar either. I have no idea if he advised anyone upline of him and
so on and so on like all good little ambots must do. You know the whole “ask
permission from your upline” before you do or don’t do something. No privacy.
Big Brother is watching. The whole creepy Amway cult thing.
We returned from our function and went to bed. I’d turned on the news at
11pm and we were still awake when the phone rang at 11:30pm. I nearly went
through the roof. Visions of car crashes and hospital emergency rooms flashed
through my head. Not to mention the near heart attack I was having. Call the
ambulance for me!
It was the wife of the 1500 - 4000 pin upline couple. You know how that
fluctuates depending on how well they can bully the downline into buying
overpriced Amway shit and dealing with IBO’s who are quitting. Platinum just
always out of their grasp. She’s phoning Ambot to scold him for not attending the
Artistry meeting.
I mean fuck you for phoning at that late hour just to bitch him out. That call
couldn't have waited until the next day? Why even phone at all? Adults can make
their own decisions. Ambot should have asked her if he could get a refund of
his $25 for the unused ticket.
So what are you phoning to scold him about, bitch???? Fuck you anyway! Bitch!
Ambot didn’t hand the phone over to me because he knew I would give her shit up
one side and hell down the other for calling at that hour for a non-emergency.
He might have been under that whole worship your upline and treat them like
gods Amway cult thing but I was under no such dellusion about that bullshit. I
guess he knews if I gave the bitch shit like she deserved she would complain to
the Platinum cult leader and then Ambot would be subjected to nasty text
messages all night long. Ah, just let me get hold of his cell phone and I would
be responding with a big FUCK YOU ASSHOLE to every one of those texts.
Those assholes still haven't made Platinum after 15, 20 years inside the Amway
cult. (FYI – this post was originally
posted before the former upline all defected to Monavie and who knows what
pyramid scheme they’re in now) Woo hoo! You go girl! Alienate your downline and
make them quit because of your dumb ass late night scoldings. Way to motivate
your downline! Fucking Amway loser.
So that’s what new IBO’s have to look forward to in their future. Texts and
phone calls from the upline assholes at all hours. Being scolded if you miss a
function. Treated like cult followers. We love you. We hate you. Amway upline
abuse.
I am so glad those late night texts and phone calls and scoldings from those
asshole Amway cult members has ended!
Is the worst part about being in Amway overpaying for shitty products and
investing in the tool scam or is it putting up with abuse from the fucking
assholes in your Amway upline?
This is the abuse that goes on inside the Amway cult and the type of stuff that
the Amway corporation doesn’t want known to outsiders but head office refuses
to act on complaints about upline abuse. So we take it to the Internet and then
put up with current Amway cult members who are outraged about their dirty
little secrets being aired on this blog so everyone knows about the abuse that
comes with being inside the Amway cult.
Yup one more time to send a big old FUCK YOU out to everyone in the Amway
upline!
This business of pestering your down-line with absurd phone and text messages in the wee hours is a sign of how childish and immature Amway freaks are.
ReplyDeleteGenuine businessmen call during business hours. They respect the privacy of both customers and employees. They don't keep on calling when people are trying to sleep. They don't bother you with little chickenshit complaints about your not being at a meeting.
Every time you examine Amway behavior patterns, you learn the same thing -- Amway encourages up-line to be obnoxious and intrusive. They dictate how you should live and what you should think.
You know why they call themselves "up-line"? Because they are ALWAYS UP YOUR ASS.
OK. This really is Anna. Dumb ass blogspot keeps telling me to log in when I am and won’t let me comment normally. But the other bananas are keeping the posts coming and approving comments.
DeleteAnd you are right. Real business people call during business hours unless advance arrangements for a different time were made.
Amway cult leaders own the air you breathe and do whatever the fuck they want.
