Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
So, I was looking for a job. And I looked in the classifieds for a decent job. I'm 16 and married and well I dont go to school but I'm very smart and very good with computers. So I find an ad stating that there's management entry-level postions and to call a number. Unluckily i dont have th enumber to provide. So I called.

I was told to show up to an office for an interview. I went dressed somewhat proffesional to find a long line of people waiting for an interview. I was a little discouraged because these people looked very elegant and i'm just a young girl. The interviews were fairly quick and the interviewer tried to be outgoing and told me that the job consisted of selling our very goor product that people everywhere wanted. She said that people get their own offices and you would manage another group of people. She told me to show up for a 2nd interview later on in the afternoon.

This 2nd interview was more like a gathering where we met the "boss" A very good looking hispanic male in his early 20's. He told us how he has his mercedes and how his boss thought him how to do what we're doing and how this company is a big giant family and at the end of the year we would be making close to 60,000 dollars a year if no more. Sounds pretty good.

Well comes out, these guys were those ppl that come out in car washes or gas stations to offer you "original" perfumes in "tester" bottles. The perfumes are supposed to be original. But they're no. They teach ou at the company how to lie to people and tell them they're original and to make up a story about how we get our hands on them. Well, I stayed there for three weeks thinking i might make something out of it. Every day you were sent out with a group of you co-workers in your car wasting your gas to go sell to people on the streets.

The first week it was cool, if you didn't sell any bottles it was fine, but after the 1st week, if you came back at the end of the day emptyhanded you were told you had to stay after 5 and work until the job got done, meaning you had to sell the d**n bottles.

What the hell, most people here in houston have been stopped by the same people that are selling these so-called original perfumes. So most people already know they're just cheap imitaitions. After tiring nights of working and not getting paid one cent, i quit.

O yeah the pay was like this. You were given a set # of bottles each day. The # of bottles you didn't bring back with you you had to turn in $20 for. What they tried to get us to do was to sell these bottles for $40 or more, so we turned in 20 and the rest we kept as comission. But who would pay more than 10 for those rip-offs.

So you see, it's a huge scam. Most people quit eventually. aND FUNNY THING WAS THAT MY MOM AND MY HUSBAND TOLD ME IT WAS A RIP OFF.
