Ok former magsters...go to google, and play around with the words Choan Lane, or the words traveling magsellers, and you should be able to find a site I host just for the very purpose of keeping former and current agents in touch with each other. Good luck. Getabunch. Its important!

I dont know if you will even read this becase it was posted awhile ago, bu I used to work for Integrity sales under John Tork as well. As a matter of fact, Brandy, i dont know if you remember me, but Im Serena. I was there for a short while when you were there. But I left with another crew member. Then came back about 2 months. Long story short, I went through a lot of the same things you went through, and will help you if you want to try and stop them. I also had to go through the abuse, both by the owne and the car handlers. I also had to ward off sexual advances by the guys on the crew on a regular basis, including the car handler who was twice my age. The verbal and physical abuse was horrible, but once you're there, it's hard to get back. they will keep your things, kick you out with no ticket home ( though they promise you can go any time you want) I had to wait at a bus station in Atlanta for almost 24 hours with no money or way to contact anyone. He ( John) also threw hotel lamps and called me racial names. I assure anyone who is reading this who has been a victim of the agents, that it wasnt us manipulating you. you have to know the abuse we endured if our sales werent adequate. The verbal abuse alone was enough to make a person say whatever it took to get a sale. I know what you went through, and you have my support. Serena

My nightmere was in Pennsylvania. My life was crazy and my friend and I had no place to go so we tried to find a job that included room and Board. You know the rest of the story, crazy verbal abuse, and mental manipulation, I was never physically abused, but I was expected to do things I did not believe was right. Most every did drugs or was presured to. The drivers of our vans were either always high, drunk, or both. I knew after getting there and seeing how much Jon relied on peer pressure to do everything, that somthing was probably not right. So when I was in "training" I never actually sold anything or tried. Then when I was put out on my own I just walked around. Tork got upset at my "handlers" so they just pretended that some of their sales were my own. One time the cops arrested the group I was with and we were all ticketed for minor offenses, Jon said he would take care of it and it was just a mistake that what we were doing was not actually illegal.Then my friend and I pretty much figured out it was all bull, and told Jon we wanted to quit. We got locked in the room and yelled and sweared at as well however we were not physically abused. Then Jon forced my friend and myself to go with seperate groups of guys were they tried to be nice and coax us into staying. Then they went the threatening and mocking route. A little while latter my friend and myself were left in Pennsylvania with little money we had saved from not eating. We eventually made it back to Omaha after some crazy events. There I learned I have a warrant out for my arrest from the ticket that I received for somthing I did not do, and was never taken care of. Any way there are alot more details to the story..... but this stuff needs to be taken care of. Because Jon uses and abuses kids and their lives get messed up for it. I will do anyting I can do to help.

I am not a former employee, but was a recent victim. It angers me that I allowed this person into my home, offered them cold water on a hot day, donated money, and was totally lied to in front of my children. I want to encourage former employees to get together, compare stories, and if you believe you have been wronged and can make a difference for other people, then take your story to the media...not just the local guys, but to the national level. Go and post now.
