Mr Yawn also forgot his ladder.

Uber claims to have worked in marketing previously and done a project with House of Fraser. I hope she didn't style those photos like the ones she's had taken. Apparently she was so open minded that the photographer branding professional could "think outside the box" with her.

I wonder is Yawn took any personal details from the Primark staff.
I am sure that she obtained the relevant permsissions.
Has a working GDPR document, undertaken her DPA annual training and of course has her annual ICO registration certificte logged.

I do always wonder how these bots seem to fall outside of the handling of personal data remit

CompleteBarstool · 17/06/2021 17:38

So the staff health and wellness project for staff at a well known high street chain "that could be massive" is..... ....... a stall in Primarni's staff room . Lol.

VolcanicEruption · 17/06/2021 18:29

Surely such vibrant business people such as the bots can deal with T&Cs in their pockets of time. They must remember they are dealing with people who have a real job so they may not be familiar with such an alien 👽 concept that they peddle.

Hold on to your hats. Here is a devastatingly accurate and deeply shocking expose of the, frankly evil, practices used by high-up members of fl in order to entice and sign up downlines.

Quite agree and they are a prime example of just why this guidance and laws are in place. I know this is surprising but I’ve just had a good look on the ICO register and there isn’t an FLP bot in sight who has registered themselves as the holder of others’ data.
Botbrigade · 17/06/2021 21:35

Love the Talented Ladies article. Do we know which bots have those massive debts?

Spongebobette · 17/06/2021 22:04

Yes. Yes, we do

Patup5 · 17/06/2021 22:17

I hope none of those young shop workers have parted with any of their hard earned cash. Did Yawn rock up as their manager’s friend; could the workers therefore be feeling pressured?

The manager who sanctioned this is an absolute disgrace and a complete idiot.

fromdownwest · 17/06/2021 22:32

@YouokHun - is it not an offence to h old data without having an ICO registration?

YABU!! There are a number of threads on here about MLMs you know. Wink

We must be due another thread about Tropic soon - it’s getting on for a week since the last one reared its ugly head. We all know how they pan out. Tropic is to thrush what Forever Fibbing is to raging syphilis.

Well I thought so @fromdownwest. I have to be registered with the ICO because I hold client data, even for the basic information I hold (addresses etc). I thought this was interesting www.transitionlaw.com/mlm

@Spongebobette which bits own those massive debts?

Botbrigade · 18/06/2021 06:36

*bots

Hunbot · 18/06/2021 08:08

The 205k is yawn
The 400k is uber I believe
The 750k is bloodsucker
Bankrupt bot is homeschool

Twentytwentyhindsight · 18/06/2021 08:35

And the bot who has defaulted on her repayment of a 50k director's loan from her now insolvent business (which also owes 180k+ to unsecured creditors- mainly HMRC) is known here as tax bill/insolvency/John Lewis Bot.

Botbrigade · 18/06/2021 09:06

Thanks @Hunbot and @Twentytwentyhindsight I didn’t know the big ones but very familiar with John Lewis bot. You’d never know from JL Bot that was the case. I have no idea how she is making any money these days.

VolcanicEruption · 18/06/2021 09:23

I can’t understand the John Lewis bot . I know the bonuses have dropped in recent years (see what I did there) but it would have been a regular income and no doubt other perks.
Yawn hasn’t mentioned the adapted holiday home recently. She could get brownie points and give it to charity.

Botbrigade · 18/06/2021 09:42

@VolcanicEruption I think JL Bot got carried away by that bumper forever year. She would have been on not shy of 100k all in in the role she was at in John Lewis and some great perks such as a final salary pension scheme amongst others. I suspect she regrets leaving. I might take one for the team and have a coffee with her to try and find out. He always keeps her cards very close to her chest though.

fromdownwest · 18/06/2021 10:10

Yet still being rolled out as a success story.

Imagine a business so rife with six figure earners, and you choose a director in that much debt to HMRC after winding up their six figure business, to preach to the masses...

Spongebobette · 18/06/2021 10:21

I’m afraid they rely on the minions believing everything they are told and being blinded by glamour

Spongebobette · 18/06/2021 10:21

And why why why leave John Lewis when you get a fab staff discount??!!!
