Hey everyone!  I've not been posting so much, but I've been reading.

I have a question, and I kinda know the answer, but I need your opinion.

I sent it back about a year ago, and didn't hear anything from my director.  I was surfing the net a couple days ago, and saw that she had take  a job at a local college.  Why a successful, Cadillac driving Director would need to do that is beyond me ( yeah, that's sarcasm )

I got a voicemail tonight from her.  About how she hadn't talked to me for a year, and she just wanted to check in and see how I was, how my daughter is, etc.

Recruiting tactic, right?

Seems funny to me that she'd be calling now, after a year, after she's taken a :quote:JOB:quote: just to check in on you & your family.

Or maybe she is totally freaking out in the fog and is trying to get out...  Since I do not know her or her situation, I am obviously just guessing, but if she is a director, she may be pretty scared if she is realizing it is all CRAP.  Maybe she just wants to talk to some who got out alive...

Or maybe she is a self-centered biotch trying to get you involved in another scam!  smiley

I guess it depends on your friendship before or out of scary kay...

Either way, nice to see you posting!

It might be worth calling her back just to see if she needs your help getting out.  If it's what you suspect and it is some kind of recruiting trick then you know the truth and won't be sucked in, and I'm sure you can think of many 'nice' responses to her or just hang up after reminding her you're on the telemarketer's "do not call" list.  smiley  JMHO.

So I called her back.  Mostly out of curiosity, partly because it has always bothered me that we just abruptly stopped talking.

It was nice.  We spent 90% of the conversation about our families, and what we'd been up to.  I did tell her nicely that I was sad that the MK thing didn't work out for me, maybe I didn't know enough people, or maybe there's just too many consultants in this area.  She was really sweet about it.  She didn't say a word about wanting me to join again or anything.

I did mention something about the mineral makeup, and she said about how I could get some of my old customers together and have a class.  Uh, yeah, I'll get back to you on that.  :1lmao:

All in all it was a nice chat.  She's putting me on her email list, maybe PCP, and I don't have an enemy out there in the world.  I feel better about the whole thing.  Still hate MK, but not this person.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound so bitchy, BUT, she called you and warm chattered you!!!! You fell for it and now she has a new customer from it!  :thumbup:

Since you sent back your MK, supposedly you can never become a consultant again, but you sure as hell can get pestered over and over and over again to buy buy buy!!!!!!!  :gah:


I would avoid her like the plague!!!!!! JMHO!!!!!!!  Love
