Why is this annoying me so much?

Friend has started an online business - I assume it’s selling jewellery but I’ve not joined the group or whatever because the name irritates the fuck out of me.

‘Adele Jones, The Collection’

The collection? God it makes me so angry and I don’t know why!!

She posted on Facebook yesterday saying whether her friends like her stuff or not she would have expected them to support her by liking her page and sharing her posts - I want nothing to do with it! I’m not a jewellery type of person at the best of times and I never joined her perfume venture for the same reason!

Anyone else getting a bit tired of people trying to create new businesses on Facebook (usually a pyramid scheme!)

I get what you mean OP - unless your friend has been designing and selling jewellery for years it is a bit cringe that she is selling "The Collection"

Good luck to her I guess.

OP if it’s MLM as I think you have said it is you are quite right in not supporting her. She won’t listen at the minute as she’s been love bombed and brainwashed but when she realises she’s losing money hand over fist hopefully she will see the light. There’s threads over on money matters about MLM which have been running for years highlighting the evil this scam is, with lots of helpful links as well. MLMs are disgusting, pure evil and should be made illegal.

@Blackdog19 they are conned into thinking they are running their own business by whoever scammed them into it. They are t, they are unpaid sales reps and 99.9% lose money.
