Lies, creative accounting and the Law of Reaction. Network marketers, we’re onto you - and so is the BBC:

Yawn's just posted that FLP called her and 'have offered to fly her to either Pattaya or Dallas' as a congratulations for helping others.

Posted below she has the words EMR19. Does this mean she's achieved the Eagle rally (can't remember what it's called)? What is this rally for?

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 30/05/2019 13:44

Yawn's not a member of the Eagles though is she? I thought that was more the likes of Uber, Castle etc. Yawn is small fry really.

I thought her level was more like training/giving a success speech in the back room of a hotel in Gloucester rather than being flown to US or Thailand

Mielabel · 30/05/2019 13:49

Yeah, that's what I'm confused about.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 30/05/2019 14:04

If you translate it from Bot BS then maybe " 'have offered to fly her to either Pattaya or Dallas' as a congratulations for helping others" translates as "if she pays her own airfare, hotel, transfers, food & drink then she can meet some of the team in those countries".

Can I have some of what PHD is on please, high vibing.

Sitting in a hotel lobby listening to women discussing multiple 6 figure investments has got her buzzing.

Is she playing the ultimate prank, and this is some persona she makes up to troll us? Or is she that vacuous and shallow?

9dartfinish2nd · 30/05/2019 15:51

Those bottles look very errrrm.........pyramid like.

Anyone seen the short movie called Grand Zero that was released a few years ago?

PHD may not be staying in the hotel. She may be having a brunch.
When DD was living in Beijing we often went to the Westin for champagne brunch.

Remember when Wig and Sleaze took pictures in a swanky hotel bar during their caravan tour? All you have to do it buy one drink (and maybe there's a way around even that).

gotmychocolateimgood · 30/05/2019 16:44

I think PhD has just bought a coffee and now is vibing by eavesdropping on actual successful people she has nothing to do with.

Things look quiet in bot land currently.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/05/2019 16:50

She's not staying there- she's just having a coffee in the lobby and 'working her biznis' while eavesdropping on real business people (let's face it, it's the closest she'll get...).

Definitely shades of Wig & Sleaze scurrying into posh hotels for a quick selfie before being chased out by security.

Strangely, we have not had any pictures of her luxury Australian pad yet- backpackers' hostel perhaps?

Yawn has until tomorrow to choose her Eagle Manager Retreat destination by the end of today.

Given her experience at GR 2018, I somehow don't think it will be Dallas.

A trip to Thailand is not to be sniffed at, but 3 days?

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/05/2019 19:48

Actually, the Eagle bots have to notify their choice today at the latest or forfeit the trip.

Jigsawpuzzle · 30/05/2019 19:58

I am off to Thailand shortly for 3 weeks so I will be doing I spy with the luggage.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/05/2019 20:00

It's on 5-8 December.

Jigsawpuzzle · 30/05/2019 20:11

Nurse doing copy & paste again. I have seen the same post from another bot ( name escapes me). They have no originality it’s rinse & repeat ad finitum.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 30/05/2019 20:26

How can Yawn qualify for Eagle managers retreat (or whatever they call it) when she didn't even qualify for a cheque this year or last year ?Confused

What makes you an Eagle manager anyway?

MLMsuperfan · 30/05/2019 20:29

I've seen the cleaning products spiel elsewhere too.

Props to Nurse for attempting to do attraction marketing with a bottle of corner shop wine.

gotmychocolateimgood · 30/05/2019 20:32

Perhaps they offer the Eagle retreat to bots who are wavering to keep them locked in.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 30/05/2019 20:37

Interesting link. Flying high? My arse! Flying low more like.

Centurion Diamond Manager? Grin

BSintolerant · 30/05/2019 21:45

That centurion reference reminds me of The Life of Brian ... imagine the conversation at an Eagle retreat:

“I’ve got a fwend called Biggus Bottus! All those C9s she did made it huge!”
