@Lucythewonderdog

Did Z bot change surname? I can’t find her, I think she separated from her husband a while back?

Haven’t looked at her for ages. Would also love to know where she was vocal as well.

Well I remember on here a couple of years ago we were talking about how she went from Yawn's favourite minion and continuously posting about FL and suddenly went very quiet indeed. She then did lots of vaguebooking about 'people who build you up and then drop you when you stop being useful to them', 'things ain't always what they seem' and her friends comments were things like 'so glad you got out you need to tell people about what happened'. I'm pretty sure Yawn also did similar vaguebooking back at her.

Three letter Z bot that makes clothes but with a 'y'.

Oh yes I remember her now
She actually was on stage at a Success Day and was thrilled

Well, things aren't quite back to FL glory days but looking at the latest, there were actually some Managers last month!

Interesting to see nothing much happening for 100 club (which showed you had a solid team), and they seem to have 50 and 75 club (never had those in the old days, I think they've had to introduce those as not enough people qualifying for 100 club), and hardly anybody seems to get a car nowadays. Used to get a few people at each level, every month. Things definitely haven't bounced back yet.

Uber and the likes must be seriously worried.

Yawns put a Christmas tree up

Spongebobette · 16/11/2021 20:14

Hmm somewhat on the nose

Castle posting her 3 day progress pics.

3 days!!!

I may be a cynic, but the right side of the picture looks like it’s had an adjustment on it? Probably the angle….

Spongebobette · 16/11/2021 20:23

THREE DAYS?

OP posts:
BSintolerant · 16/11/2021 21:28

Three days is a long time in MLM - those pockets of time are ever so deep you know. 😉

Whitefire · 16/11/2021 21:34

Right I know Castle and Uber and then I get stuck.

Does one share a surname with Some Mother's Do 'ave 'em?

JohnStonesMissus · 16/11/2021 21:48

@Lucythewonderdog

Hmm 🤔
Who's that directed at I wonder?Grin
PieonaBarm · 16/11/2021 21:49

@Whitefire yes, indeed one of them does, and a first name with a famous, old school agony aunt

Whitefire · 16/11/2021 21:53

pieonaBarm Thank you. I will need to try and remember all these.

Smorgasborb · 17/11/2021 00:53

Nurses Facebook stories/live. She's confirmed it!! She's 'taken a step back' from her FL business and the business building aspect because she's got other opportunities she's exploring (all secret apparently), doing her private nurse stuff and because everything's mad because the kid has started school.

She still recommends and sells it though so contact her if you need anything....she might step back in when everything's calmed down.

Sounds promising and although it's not a ceremonial ditching thank god she's out of it! As long as the other opportunities aren't another MLM.

I wonder what the trigger was? I wonder how she's really feeling too. This was her ticket to riches and out of her job. This was something she said she'd never give up on. This was an amazing opportunity that fits into the nooks and crannies of time wasn't it? Surely with a 3 day week and the child in school those nooks are much bigger? Surely if FL was the opportunity she said it was, the other options wouldn't get a look in?

Smorgasborb · 17/11/2021 01:04

And this is why we follow bots like Nurse. Their journey and public persona demonstrates what we know to be the case and the MLM methodology:

  • Lovebomb
  • tell them they are going to be successful and it's easy, minutes a day.
  • tell them they need to 'be the product' to be successful. Buy more! Do more! Sell stuff! Advertise it for us! Get more people in to sell it!
  • tell them they aren't doing enough. It's not minutes a day if you want to be successful
  • tell them it's their fault not the business
  • drop them
  • move on to new set of victims
  • bot quietly fades away along with their dreams, confidence, several wasted £££, lost friends and days of time they'll never get back. Nurse wanted £300 to take the kid to CBeebies land when he was tiny. Even that never happened.

Yawn put up a cryptic message on her Facebook stories, it's probably gone now but it said something along the lines of "I'm so glad that lots of people can now see that that this person isn't so great after all" a dig at Castle after what she said about her tree?

JohnStonesMissus · 17/11/2021 07:15

Good news about Nurse, at last she's seen the light! I hope Yawn didn't give her a hard time about it, although I suspect she might have done considering they're not fb friends anymore...

It's there still. Posted 11hrs ago so should be visible until 8pm today at least.

acatcalledjohn · 17/11/2021 08:32

@Angrymum22 Sending you good healing thoughts. I only just realised I hadn't responded to that post of yours yet. Thanks

Oh course Yawn can only make cryptic comments publicly - I’m sure she’d love to spill the beans and say Castle’s apparent success is built on a big subsidy from parents at the start and it’s all a big fat lie
But she can’t because the whole house of cards would come tumbling down. She had to pretend, through gritted teeth, that other top bots’ lies are not lies so she can keep lying

I think that nurse may have discovered that there is currently a really huge demand for agency nurses and that she can make huge money at the moment in those "nooks and crannies" rather than flogging FL. There was an article in the Guardian that agency nurses in the midlands are getting £35 per hour because of the shortage and desperation of the NHS/care homes ... so if nurse even did just 10 hours a a week at those rates it would give her £1400 extra a month (before tax) - the sort of money doing a real job that she'd never see from FL
Whitefire · 17/11/2021 12:29

She said what about her tree?

Hopefully reminded her of the numerous elf deaths that she was responsible for by putting the tree up in November. Halloween Wink

fromdownwest · 17/11/2021 13:36

How is castle posting lives about day 3 back from maternity leave, when a week ago she was posting lives of her packing up orders in the HQ with her whacky brother pranking everyone?

Do they forget their own lies? Or do they just create their own reality?

Spongebobette · 17/11/2021 14:44

She’s pretending she had some sort of maternity leave 🙄
