"Stop filming kids you bad baldy nonce" is another gem

You would think that perhaps Broke was right about Sleaze.

The fucking lot of them, they deserve something really bad to happen to them.

Meanwhile over in FLP, Nurse is training "thousands of people on the team sizzle". I wonder what the topic of her training is. How not to use social media? She's good at that.

BSintolerant · 10/11/2020 22:00

Lucky Forever Fibbing bots having to endure an evening of mind-numbing dross from Guru Yawn who is sharing her words of wisdom from Africa to the Midlands. That’s global, that is. If only she’d journey from The Nether Regions before going Down Under for a rummage in the Bush before disappearing up the outback.

Sizzle my arse (as Joan of Arc would say).

What’s PhD bot up to these days?

bestbefore · 10/11/2020 22:23

Any of you bot watchers/ hawks know who this is? https://www.totaljobs.com/job/social-media-retail-assistant/infinity-group-job90975925?carousel=1&r=8%7CJobDetailsPageCarousel spotted it on total jobs in several areas - clearly 'patches' but it must def be a mlm. I've not see jobs ads like this before personally Confused

Jasmin82 · 10/11/2020 22:29

@bestbefore it's for Oriflame. A few of their hunbots use recruitment agency aliases to place ads on Total Jobs. I've reported them before now and nothing gets done. Total Jobs will keep posting as long as they're getting paid. The interesting ones are from what appears to be a law recruitment agency but are all for Oriflame.
At least the Avon huns are more upfront.

Sleaze briefly made NW Tonight. 😂😂

bestbefore · 10/11/2020 22:49

@Jasmin82 interesting, cheeky - bet they get applicants. Certainly looks tempting unless you know the score. Terrible. Thanks

Lemming20 · 10/11/2020 22:50

This is probably old news but I’ve just stalked Yawn’s accounts on CH. Given that she pretends to be a squillionaire and I’m rather crap at reading figures, can anyone confirm that she is in fact doing rather badly?! I am not sure I have ever seen company figures so bad...

It's been a long long time since I had to read balance sheets but it would appear that her current assets consist of the amount of cash she claims you can earn in a month and her Directors loan as the debtor figure.

@acatcalledjohn
Nurses social media training bullet points:

  • say 'absolutely amazing' every 3 seconds
  • raise eyebrows so you look maniacal
  • always do lives in the semi-darkness, especially when showing how a product enhances your glow
  • all lives must be done in front of your fully laden clothes drying horse
  • post the every breathing moment of your small child. 40 pictures a day is not adequate huns!
  • breathlessly do 'delivery unpacking lives' where you make it clear that all the products are for you or your mum except for 1 pity purchase of a lipbalm for your friend at work.

Did I cover everything?

Malin52 · 11/11/2020 10:35

And as if by magic nurse has posted a live Insta story ticking off the 'amazings', 'eyebrows' and the 'use of the product in the darkness'. Following her own rules!!

Literally

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 10:53

Haaa spot on

She’s really posting a LOT of photos and vids of her child.

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 10:58

He’s her ‘why’
Which is all the more tragic because when she fails, she’ll feel that she’s failed him
So she has to keep on going

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 10:59

AND THAT’S HOW THEY TRAP YOU

funkylittleboatrace · 11/11/2020 11:05

Nurses healthy lunch post with the Iceland potato skins .I love a potato skin but they are not healthy, she comes across pretty clueless rather than selling a lifestyle to aspire to.

acatcalledjohn · 11/11/2020 11:58

@Malin52 Spot on! Did she post that list on FB or Insta? If the latter the law of reaction is at play because there's nothing there since last night.

Meanwhile, over in AIBU...

My cousin is about to give up her career as a teacher to join a pyramid scheme

Sforsh49 · 11/11/2020 13:39

Nurses kid seems to live off mince in gravy with potato's and carrots. It's all he seems to eat. And toast, a lot of toast......

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 14:12

And he always has a screen in front of him when he eats
(Sorry, super judgey parenting comment)

fitgirl26 · 11/11/2020 16:02

Wig has blocked my burner. Obviously didn't take kindly to being called a conspiracy theory idiot. Not a lot of love for them on the Liverpool Echo page - lots of people calling them out for their MLM stuff as well. Seems they have a bit of a reputation in the North West.

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 16:21

I think the ‘Global Business Specialist at Entrepreneurship’ has locked her account, or it’s been suspended

CompleteBarstool · 11/11/2020 16:22

Wasn't it Wig and Sleaze where it kicked off on their fb once over them recruiting a young man with learning difficulties IIRC? A long time ago now

Lots of people having a go. I think they're probably quite notorious for their scamming in that area

Spongebobette · 11/11/2020 16:22

Hmm ditto Sleaze
