I saw an ad in the local newspaper a few
years back for Trebor, Inc. Desperately needing a job, I called the
number, and the woman on the phone gave me an address and a time. I
asked what the ad was for, and she refused to tell me.
So I got
dressed up, spent ten dollars on gas, and went to the address given to
me. I arrived twenty minutes early, and was given a packet to fill out.
I asked the receptionist was this was for, and again, I was told that
it will be explained to me. Moments later, a fat man with coffee
stained teeth came out, and I asked him. His reply was insanely rude.
When
it was finally my turn for an interview, I noticed various plaques on
the wall, mostly for "Highest sales in Kirby vacuum cleaners." My
mother fell victim to this kind of scam; Rainbow basically forced her
to buy a $3,000 vacuum because she didn't make enough sales.
The
fat man told me that I had the potential to have millions of dollars,
get week-long trips to exotic locations, gold watches, etc. I didn't
show up for the orientation the next day.
Anyone who defends this company is obviously an employee, and must be making enough money and doing
something "right" to be kissing the behinds of these criminals. It was
never about who does the hardest work. It is about becoming aligned
with a business that works like a cult. It is about becoming a
sycophant, and cementing the dominance of a corrupt corporate theatre.
You are being played for all of your money, worth nothing more than a
pawn. All the world is a stage.
