OK. Who would do a search
titled “how to listen to Amway tapes”?
Umm. You put the tape into a cassette player, push the play button, and listen
to it?
Years ago I worked for a company that was located in a 5 story building. A
couple of other companies had offices in the building. I was down on the main
floor bringing something to the receptionist and probably chatting for a few
minutes. A couple walked across the lobby and got into the elevator. The man -
in his 20’s - held the door open, poked his head out, and called over:
“Which button do I press for the third floor?”
“Three?” The receptionist suggests in the tone she uses when dealing with
idiots.
The elevator door closes and we break down laughing.
OK well maybe you had to be there....
Perhaps this poor lost IBO has already asked his upline that question and
didn’t get a satisfactory answer so he now takes to the Internet in his quest
to find that information and ends up at my post about Amway CD’s and tapes.
“How to listen to Amway tapes?”
Hmm, maybe you should be drunk first? Turn the volume way down so you don't
piss off anyone else within earshot. Do whatever it takes not to get
brainwashed by that shit. A better plan would be to burn them.
I wonder if IBOFB is reading this post. He’ll be shitting his pants demanding
who has got their hands on Amway tapes because he claims they went out with the
last century.
When someone is asking "How to listen to Amway tapes," it indicates something about the kind of people who generally get hooked into Amway, and who have a hard time getting out of the scam.
ReplyDeleteYes, of course -- all you have to do is put the tape in the cassette, push the "Play" button, and listen. That's what every sane person knows.
But a lot of Amway types are natural losers and dimwits, and they need directions that even a child doesn't ask for. It's not that they don't know how to play a tape, but because their natural hesitation and uncertainty and diffidence make them have low self-esteem and uncertainty about taking action.
So when the guy asks that silly question, what he really means is this: "Do I need to be in a special frame of mind to listen to an Amway tape? Do I have to prepare myself by cleansing my brain of doubts? Do I have to have positive feelings, and trust, and complete loyalty to my up-line?"
In other words, he's so lacking in courage and self-respect and trust in his own judgment that he is lamely asking other people how he should prepare himself to listen to an Amway tape. He is weak-willed, uncertain, and fearful.
That's exactly the kind of dyed-in-the-wool loser that Amway wants to hook as an IBO. He'll be a lifer.
Anonymous - It also could be the old ask your Amway upline for permission before you do anything. The Ambot decides to get a jump start on the instructions and checks online for how to listen to Amway tapes before getting permission to listen to them.
DeletePossibly. But since an IBO usually receives the tapes directly from his up-line, why would he think that he has to ask his up-line for permission to listen to them? Surely the up-line sent the tapes to be listened to.
