I wish I could do that – my employer’s system will only allow us to view training material during our breaks

Nope. My web surfing can occasionally drift during lunch/breaks, etc.

You have an interesting ISP Blessed… is your interest in MK work-related?

Well, I know David from the early days of this site, via email, Skype, etc and I am of the opinion that he is a top guy.

His site is, undoubtedly, pro-MK rather than balanced in my opinion but isn’t that down to the content of the comments rather than his own posts?

As for being anti-PT and anti-Tracey Coenen, yes, I agree that seems to be the case a lot of the time and is the main reason why I don’t read his site as often as I used to – I think having a discussion about products and businesses is all well and good but personalities should be left out of the equation.

My comment wasn’t a reference to those who post as much as a thought about the person who maintains that board. I certainly can’t say what his intentions were when he first began to operate his site to provide a “fair and balanced” examination of Mary Kay Cosmetics. I do believe, however, that whatever his initial intentions were, today his board reveals him to be nothing more than a shill for the MK “opportunity.” Who can begin to truly size up the depth of an individual merely from blog exchanges? With this limitation in mind I note it is my impression “Dave” is a fine individual for many reasons. Perhaps my perception of his character in such a positive fashion is why I find it so sad he has allowed what could have been a venue to help women, become simply another “I hate Tracy and Pink Truth” site.

David’s site is a shill???

Ouch!!

I know the guys over there are extremely pro-MK but, equally, I could point you in the direction of a few that are extremely anti- too

People don’t realize there are good MLMs and bad MLMs. A good one is, of course, Mary Kay Cosmetics. All ya gotta do in MK is sell the product and get a 50% mark-up profit! How could anyone go wrong with this? Ya buy the product, sell it and make money!

What’s more, this wonderful company (May Kay Cosmetics) is all about enriching women’s lives. Every woman needs to try their hand at being a Mary Kay Cosmetics Independent Sales Consultant. Some describe it as “recruiting” but it’s actually just “sharing a wonderful gift” with fellow women and their families. Hey, be your own boss and make money! You get to work only a few hours per week and earn an executive income! It’s possible you could enable your husband to retire early! These products are recession proof! Women wash this stuff off their faces every day and then need more! It’s a GREAT OPPORTUNITY! Act now!

And here’s the best part, God wants you to be everything you can be! Just concentrate on your deserve level and jump right in! Got a credit card? Your husband got a credit card? Know where you could steal a credit card?

Don’t linger and possibly miss this God sent opportunity to make your dreams come true! You’ve got dreams don’t you?

Need more information, objective information? Just go to: http://www.balancedmarykay.blogspot.com. Don’t feel like typing all that out? That’s OK, just go to: Shills_are_us.com. Same site.

Finally, if your allergic to dripping sarcasm and are beginning to scratch right now, don’t read this post again; you’ll break out in a bad rash.

I saw you voted the other day Jay (the admin panel puts names to votes if they have commented here before) but obviously I’m not going to reveal who voted for what.

I believe some of the mlm products I know of are ok but, like you, am no fan of the manner in which they are pitched.
