*bot frenzy

ForeverLivingMyArse · 16/10/2015 21:04

I'm totally hooked on that book, thanks to whoever recommend it, it's fascinating and so much of what he's describing can be seen in FL

CheekySmile · 17/10/2015 10:38

Me too! I don't really get time to read with two little ones but am squeezing this one in anywhere in my day that I can.

My bot keeps posting about how great it is to be in charge of her own schedule. Well yes dear, you're on maternity leave like me. So actually I'm more in charge of my schedule than you because I don't have to try and ensnare my friends into my pyramid scheme whilst I'm playing with my baby. Hmm

Klaxon! Younique bot on MN thread

CheekySmile · 17/10/2015 10:55

Aw bless, her morning spent Googling with a glass of vino for business opportunities led her to revive an old thread. It's not going to go well...

The choice of the word summit made me snort with derision.
Not many 'mom'ents for the FL Bot managers this weekend, eh?
My FB feed is infested with it. I had no idea it was possible to be fascinated and irritated simultaneously

PopcornFrenzy · 17/10/2015 17:36

The menu at the summit, bot is going crazy with excitement Confused

PopcornFrenzy · 17/10/2015 17:39

I've thought about FL using the term summit, surely this indicates they can go no further?

CheekySmile · 17/10/2015 17:51

Ha mobius I really thought her hashtag at 3.48 said #farts...

Popcorn, not much choice on the menu, if you dont like chicken or cheese you're fooked. Grin

stopfaffing · 17/10/2015 18:07

Cheeky me too (#farts)

I wonder whether we should email Rachel Merchants of Deception...

ambler21 · 17/10/2015 18:43

I just caught the end of a preview of tonight's summit on periscope....

maybe they will go live again later?
There's a preview from yesterday as well, www.periscope.tv/ForeverUK/1BRJjbVaOANJw they've got doors and tables and lanyards and pens and paper and everything!

LittleMissStubborn · 17/10/2015 18:44

What's the deal with being a Business Coach?

Is that a different path to becoming a shiny stone manager?

Are you coaching or selling? Any other company being this confused wouldn't be touched by a bargepole.

I have decided to no longer be envious. I may have a modest income but at least I know each day I go to work and help people and hopefully make a positive impact sometimes I say No then they shout at me and I don't have to get people to pay to work with me.

LittleMissStubborn · 17/10/2015 18:45

Free pens are always rubbish. My last free pen lasted about a week.

mobiusgeek · 17/10/2015 19:57

I also thought it said #farts Grin.. It would be good if 2 different strangers both emailed her MoD. She might even look at it then.. But I doubt it, she's too far gone. She's been at this well over a year and the one to blame for infecting recruiting many. She's actually roped in many people I also know no hopers I knew from school who are now all playing 'building' fl 'businesses', as well as others I would have previously credited with some sense but have now clearly highlighted themselves as being guillable/unhappy/having money worries.

lazycoo · 17/10/2015 20:00

Eeek! TV has 179 likes! Keep up the good work. One of my bots had a Facebook party last night. It looks like she made one sale but gave away four products as prizes Confused

missmargot · 17/10/2015 20:43

Has anyone successfully reasoned with a newly recruited bot? I've had some FB messages from one, an ex-colleague who I like and was really surprised when she turned to the bot side. I'm torn between a polite decline and gently telling her what I really think.

Tupperwarelid · 17/10/2015 20:52

Fl bot is now selling herself as a "business coach".Younique bot has a team member at yellow level (whatever that means....)

LittleMissStubborn · 17/10/2015 21:13

TWL either we have the same bot or this is the latest 'thing' to achieve.

mobiusgeek · 17/10/2015 21:22

Nope.. Mine are all touting the business coach tripe. This ones my personal fave:
"Business coach, entrepreneur, mentor and mummy"

Hmm
Flumplet · 17/10/2015 21:25

Oh man!! Mine has just quit Yeeeeewwwneeek for personal reasons, and she's only been doing it a bloody month. A couple of days ago it was the 'best thing she had ever done!!' What a cop out!! I was looking forward to the online pj party and xmas party I had been invited to!! Sad

mobiusgeek · 17/10/2015 21:29

I've even got one that thinks so highly of himself he's started making his own inspirational quotes with the (free version) of the instaquote app, and then putting his name at the bottom like some kind of philosopher Confused. This one is in real danger of becoming a MoD
