As they can’t travel and events cancelled they now have no fake it till you make it razzmatazz. I think people have too many other concerns.
I have just been informed that schools in Thailand 🇹🇭 closed for students but teachers to go in.

It's interesting that we have different takes on this! My concern is that the whole being able to work from home line is going to be very popular at the moment with social isolation and probable job losses. And sadly there are still a lot of people who don't know about mlms or that spending their last 200 quid on a business on a box isn't going to make them wealthy.

I hope the more positive of you are right though!

Twentytwentyhindsight · 17/03/2020 15:04

@JasperRising - I take it that by the 'more positive' of us, you mean the negative Nellies, negheads and dream crushers?

JasperRising · 17/03/2020 15:12

Lol @Twentytwentyhindsight yup all you positive negheads...

Is it just me or has nurse changed her fb profile back to public again? Clearly her private group wasn't quite working, shocking😏

Also broke seems to have removed the video and his swinging pic and has a new puppy.

BetsyTiger · 17/03/2020 16:43

@JasperRising I think that MLM may unfortunately boom, I've seen posts from friends and family members already who cannot go into work because a child has a cough or a fever, some of whom have been told that they won't get paid if they don't go into work. People are scared and MLM is going to prey on that fear.

Bluewavescrashing · 17/03/2020 19:08

FFS Bruv don't travel on the tube just to whinge about poor hygiene! I though your biz was so great because you could work from home.

Try teaching 30 5 year olds all day. Lining them up to wash their hands 8 times through the day then watching them put pencils in their mouths, paw the tables, chairs, door handles and own (+ others'!) faces immediately after washing. Licking random things.

That is futile. Don't whine to me hun.

Bluewavescrashing · 17/03/2020 19:09

Plus being expected to teach a normal day of lessons and keep their standards up.

You have no clue mate!

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 17/03/2020 20:10

He really doesn't get it does he?

He's whinging about people's disregard for social distancing .....whilst disregarding social distancing

acatcalledjohn · 17/03/2020 20:10

My concern is that the whole being able to work from home line is going to be very popular at the moment with social isolation and probable job losses.

But then again office workers forced to WFH will be wise to how shit it can be. I'm dreading the moment our office gets closed. The longer I can keep working from the office, the better. I'd probably kill my DP after a day or two of WFH.

JasperRising · 18/03/2020 08:41

Have seen an MLM bot take the universe, everything is connected theory they all love and argue at length that maybe 'the virus' is here to help us by making us reset, reconnect and remember what is important.

And I'm sure that is just what those whose relatives and friend have died or are in a critical condition, or who have existing health conditions, or who are facing extreme economic uncertainty want to hear from someone who shills dodgy health products and a scammy work from home opportunity. Angry

hunzuncovered · 18/03/2020 08:54

The huns promoting their financial freedom 3 weeks ago are now angry they aren't getting a clear answer on help with rent and utilities. Hmmmm.

CodenameVillanelle · 18/03/2020 09:07

I know I saw that! Sacked bot worried that she can't pay her rent - so MLMs don't make you rich hun?
Not that I don't have sympathy for a single mum struggling with rent but a) why rent such an expensive house?? And b) if your expensive lifestyle relies on scammy MLM 'success' then you've only yourself to blame

fromdownwest · 18/03/2020 09:20

I see the bots are declaring their hand soap excellent value for money with 2,365 washes per bottle, However, scientific studies have shown that a minimum of 0.7ml is required to fully cover your hands not 0.2ml.

Actual amount is 675 washes

So once again, spreading ill researched facts that in the current climate are actually counter productive

CodenameVillanelle · 18/03/2020 09:59

And FFS it's soap. All soap is good to prevent the spread. Fairy liquid would do the job.

Whiterangey · 18/03/2020 10:45

The jobcentre in my town are already receiving a high number of new benefit applications due to job losses.

People with no money cannot afford to pay for their bizniz in a box. They also won't be able to afford to pay for their monthly cc's.

This will harm MLM's. Plus, as has already been said, the cancellation of all lovebombing meetings.

mlmingaheartbeat · 18/03/2020 11:15

MLM have traditionally boomed in times of depression and recession. When things are bad, eg. job losses, redundancy etc - people will always consider extra ways to make money - no matter how hair brain the scheme is. It is not until either they figure out

  1. there is no money to be made except buying a load of stock
  2. your upline is literally coining it in at your expense
  3. nobody actually gives a shit about you despite all the love bombing
  4. you are tied into shady mechanism of fleecing people
  5. you've lost all your friends and family - nobody will speak to you
  6. you have lost you redundancy cash - can't pay your bills
  7. you get another job and leave MLM world - calling it a moment of weakness.

The world is full of greedy people - bots know this and encourage everyone to join them!

Mycatismadeofstringcheese · 18/03/2020 12:53

Can I have a clue on Sacked bot?

fromdownwest · 18/03/2020 13:03

A quote from a presentation slide shared by the bots based on their bee pollen tablets.

'I know what your (SIC) thinking..... And the answer is yes! Propolis is also helpful for cold and flu prevention! And hopefully corona (sic) too......'

With the previous slide showing 'Immunity' next to the product.

Is there any where this can be reported? It is more than hinting that taking this product could prevent the Covid 19 VIRUS.....

Cashing in with fake science... Absolute SCUM

BSintolerant · 18/03/2020 13:44

Would the Advertising Standards Agency be interested to see that?

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 18/03/2020 13:49

There's nothing like a pandemic for getting the likes of Uber back into numerous posts a day, trying to sell, trying to recruit (using her child of course).

She quite often goes quiet on fb but this has got her as fired up and desperate as the lowly bots

fromdownwest · 18/03/2020 13:53

Reading the grammar and spelling on these slides is painful. It was harder for me to write it word for word, than correcting the shocking spelling

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 18/03/2020 15:31

The ASA only take action on paid posts unfortunately.

Whiterangey · 18/03/2020 15:50

They are a bunch of disgusting vultures, picking over the devastation that coronavirus has wrought.

Absolutely disgusting pieces of shit, not a humane bone left in their bodies.

People are dying, people are losing loved ones, businesses are going down, jobs are being lost, people are facing financial devastation and these pieces of excrement are preying on them.

That 'be kind' shite didn't last long.

hunzuncovered · 18/03/2020 15:51

Don't panic! sackedbot has been hiding her secret gift for reading tarot and after a few free readings she's opened up a group ready to charge you £10 for her insight.
