    I was an assistant branch manager for a national bank and pitching your MLM to a client is a guarantee to get fired immediately. It is a huge violation of trust. I can’t imagine any bank would not have the same strict policy on something like that.
    Ironically, MLM people will pitch you all the time at work and I’m just thinking, “You asked me to pull up your account. I can see how broke you are. Clearly this ‘opportunity’ you’re offering me isn’t working out for you.” But of course you can’t say that to them as much as you want to.

    That $300 non refundable down payment to attend Beachbody conferences is a real sinister move on the company’s part - how many people do you think get trapped in the sink cost fallacy trying to qualify to attend after paying that?

    • @tonichan89
      @tonichan89 Рік тому +11

      Buying a ton of product from yourself to gain points (or whatever) in order to qualify must be a lot of money on its own. And if uou fail to qualify in time? Sucks for you! You've now lost the down payment money, spent a ton of time and coin to rank up/gain points, and you've lost out on the trip.

    MLM "work trips" you have to EARN are so wild.. I'm going on a work trip to another county in Europe and everything is paid for either by the host organization or my own employer. The flights, hotel, food at the conference, everything is paid for. And I'll get paid my salary, like I should. In what reality do these people live that they feel like having to earn and pay for your work conference is normal 😬
    Seeing Zeke in your videos always makes my day! It's his world, the rest of us are just living in it. And for the part of summer just having started... I live in Finland, summer very much is over at this point 😂

I am infuriated by the neglect but I am trying to collect more evidence without tipping her off. I am doubtful there is much more that could be done for her son. It is an issue that needed to be caught early to be possibly fixed. I am so torn on it because yes, they are family, but I still think this child could possibly receive better care.

    • @Sleipnirseight
      @Sleipnirseight Рік тому

      ​@@smolexfundie6458Ugh, I'm so sorry. CPS all too often is either powerless or unwilling to help (depends on who you get on any given day). Hopefully that child has some adult advocates who can help; child welfare always trumps social or familial obligations. Maybe there are local victim advocacy or child welfare groups, something community-based and grassroots rather than CPS alone. They can assist in figuring out next steps and connecting you to agencies that can/will help. All the best of luck to you and that kid.

Would it be possible that her not being the "ideal candidat" to join the MLM could also be the fact that she said she was getting ready to leave a cult already? Therefor in the mind of an MLM recruiter, could be a red flag that she would end up seeing through the scam with more ease given her past experience with an actual cult?

      Wasn't that such an ugly little surprise. I found out that all my purchases were considered income through Arbonne. Personal products that I was encouraged to buy, so that I could live a "clean life" was considered both a sale and income...vile and disgusting. And of course not a single person in the upline told me this and I don't even know if they were aware and when I confronted them it was "wow we don't do that here", because conveniently, my ?my upline was located in Canada and Australia. I'm pretty sure they were lying though.

      Your managers act as they should. An ex manager of mine once told me that part of her job was social, meaning emotionally supporting employees, being the mediator between two quarelling employees, supporting employees by showing them how to do things better, etc. It's so true. But treat members of your team like human beings and they will be ready to work their asses off because they feel seen and respected. I wish more companies understand that.

    Your sense of smell is the most powerful memory primer, because that sense is directly weird to the brain. Very, very thin hair like fibers travel throughout openings in the base of the skull called the, "Cribriform Plate". That means smells are essentially hardwired to the brain. So when you smell a certain smell, that memory is more vivid thanks to that connection. My favorite is the smell of chlorine from a pool. Lots of great memories as a kid spending hours in the water.

    Surely that bank guy has to be reportable. I wouldn't imagine the bank would endorse his behaviour. Banks (at least where I live in Australia) are becoming much more educated on the importance of providing skilled support to vulnerable clients such as those leaving high control situations such as family violence, so I'd imagine they would likely value hearing about any of their employees who are taking advantage of vulnerable clients like the person who wrote in to you with her story.

      I usually don't mind watching sponsorship part of UA-cam videos because I know I watch the videos for free and it's the least I can do to support the creator. If anything, it just adds my knowledge about various products available in the market. If the sponsorship is too much, or the video is too long for unnecessary content, I just skip the video and abandon the channel.

    It’s interesting to hear an opera singer talk about the group of people who give their attention only to the top earners in their downline. I’m a singer as well, and I’ve run into the exact same behavior in the opera and theatre worlds. I’m not saying every performer behaves that way, but it’s 100% a thing.

      I think she usually does (and/or people who submit the stories include them), but she reads these stories for the first time in these videos so sometimes it gets missed unfortunately. :/ but commenting for engagement as I agree they are nice (especially since sometimes people talk about their specific disordered habits and that can be a real struggle)

    Listening to story 2 got me wondering something. Just about every MLM seems to have a lower tier, say levels 1 to 5, and the upper tiers, 5-10. Many people seem to be blocked from getting above the level 5, no matter what they do. I wonder if internally, the company only has so many spots per upper level, and unless someone leaves, there's no way to get an upper slot. I'm sure the company won't allow or pay hundreds of people at say, level 8 or 9. That's an internal document I'd like to see, how many slots per tier.

    37:00 for this scenario, it might be a good idea to also report them to somewhere that can check in on the child's safety and care, since the parent hasn't even taken the kid to get their health condition diagnosed. I think in Canada we call it child's and family services but I can't recall what it is the US right now.
