I know an innocent but dim girl who is just getting into MLM. No qualifications to talk of, no prospects in a tight job market. Single mom telling me that she wants to build her own business. Telling me that it is not selling. I could tell that she had already been prepped to ignore 'negative' people who will try and talk her out of achieving her dreams. I just told her to do more than one thing at once AND to watch out for people and companies that try to define reality by redefining terms and/or by reallocating labels. I pointed out that with companies like google etc you are the product and the advertisers are the customers. Google will never tell you that and many companies will switch language up like that to obscure what is actually going on.
She is too far gone to just tell her she shouldn't do it.
I was going to send her this thread but too late now innit.

We were sitting in a work meeting chillin. we're cool and all and she's the only black female there. As we're choppin it up, I ask her what she's doing this weekend, to which she takes the opportunity to respond, "planning for life and investing in my retirement so I can live life stress free :smile:"

I hit her wit the:rudy: wit the quickness because her tone of voice changed and trust me when I say her response sounded planned as fukk, unlike my birth :mjcry:.

Anyway, I immediately call her out on it and just ask, "Is it an MLM? :jbhmm:". Breh, she literally took about twenty seconds while I stared at her lookin like :ld:wit her head bouncin side to side before I finally asked again. "Is it? :usure:". Wouldn't ya know, she caved in and just said "yea :shaq2:"
:mjlol:. I guess she didn't have and more planned and preempted jargon to funnel me down a structured path. That convo ended quick and got deaded right then and there and we were quiet the rest of the meeting :yeshrug:.

So you two are the only black people working there?:francis:

Sounds like some c00n shyt to me.:troll:
