Who’s seen the Christmas commercial for Barnes & Noble? The one with Tony Bennett (RIP) and Lady Gaga singing a duet and ending with “you never know who you’ll meet at Barnes & Noble”. Is it even running again this year? I haven’t seen it yet but that doesn’t mean its not running somewhere.
And what’s with banning the fucking song on all these radio stations? I’ve heard rappers lyrics that are more suggestive and offensive.
Anyway.
Enter Amway creepy factor.
Who else is watching this commercial and right away thinking of the horrors of
it all and getting pestered by Amway Ambots at Barnes & Noble?
There’s been lots of comments left on this blog
by people who were shopping at Barnes & Noble and got sniped by some Amway
asshole trying to prospect them.
Its a big NO for IBO’s to harrass customers shopping at Barnes &
Noble.
The memo to Amway’s cult leaders from head office used to be on the Amquix info
website but it appears to have closed down. So sad. It was a great information
source about Scamway.
The problem is information control from Amway’s upline cult leaders. Memos are
not sent out to individual IBO’s but rather to the Amway cult leaders. It is
their responsibility to notify their downline but not everyone gets notified.
Especially IBO’s who signed up after this memo was sent out from head office.
Undoubtedly complaints were coming in Barnes & Noble management for 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
and probably nothing is done today either no matter how much that letter
threatens IBO discipline. 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.
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
bastards 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 calls Amway’s
I-don’t-give-a-fuck 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 Amway’s just lost another income
stream. Ha ha. Not likely.
You never know who you’ll meet at Barnes & Noble but just hope to hell it
isn’t an Amway asshole.
So 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!
The thing that's ironic is this: persons who are in a bookstore are most likely well educated, informed, and perhaps even deeply intellectual. Are they the sort of persons who are going to sign up with some stupid MLM racket pushed by an asshole bothering them in public?
ReplyDeleteAn ambot trying to drum up business in Barnes & Noble is like a vegetarian trying to make converts in a steak house. The attempt itself is evidence that the ambot is profoundly stupid.
Consider this as well: it's likely that the only books the ambot has ever read are Kiyosaki, Norman Vincent Peale, and maybe the King James Bible. Imagine him going up to somebody who is looking through a book by James Joyce, or a serious history text, and trying to get him interested in a 6-4-2 plan.
Hi Anonymous. As you said, people browsing in bookstores are probably intellectual, may have even heard of Amway and are smart enough to do a little search online. Especially after being pestered by one of these Amway losers. I am sure the Ambot would sneer at whatever reading choice their target in Barnes & Noble has picked up. And try to sell them on one of the Amway preferred authors you mentioned.
