I wondered why Uber was asking for Nespresso machine recommendations the other day.

I wonder whether FL have done some sort of bulk order on the machines or drop ship arrangement where the bots are all pressured into buying one whilst FL takes a commission.

I'll believe Yawn's bullshit about how massive her cheque is if her mouldy old thatch gets replaced, the tired old Rangey gets replaced with a shiny new alternative and they actually go on a real (non-FL) 2 week minimum holiday.

hurlyburlygirly · 13/04/2024 20:45

Yes, that's the telling stuff. No designer bags, fancy cars, or any breaks away nor holidays these days. A few meals out in Worcester pubs and a supermarket wardrobe does not a flash lifestyle make.

I don't know how they can be arsed with it all. A real job is so much easier.

On the subject of Yawn’s directors loan - can anyone help me understand how it works as she has both a debtor and a creditor in her accounts for circa £200k - I don’t understand what the collateral is here?

I’m not an expert by any means but I think the accounts show that she’s taken around 200k out of the company so the company is showing that

someone else will be able to explain it am I am sure!

Exactly....

Is yawn with ex BFF in her crying face photo?

Also who posts a screenshot of their messages with their husband Confused

YouOKHun · 13/04/2024 22:08

And in the post with the pic of a blubbing Yawn with exBFF is a video clip of Yawn showing her CB cheque slip to someone. Naughty naughty - you know what the Overlord Manhun has said about spreading the disappointment.

MeAndMounjaro · 13/04/2024 22:23

Those little slips are hilarious, the yoga mats at least created buzz for the silliness and novelty.

Beetlekiwi · 13/04/2024 23:34

Is that a jibe about the size of Yawns bonus cheque? 👀

“SO happy for you!!! That’s the place in Spain in the bag 💼 xxx”

BSintolerant · 14/04/2024 08:14

“The place in Spain” remark appears to be genuine - that gullible poster seems to be a fan of Younique.

Yawn's crying photos looked really staged........

Sugarplum48 · 14/04/2024 09:53

My word 2jags is really laying it on thick. To this day l simply cannot fathom these women out. Yawn in debt upto her eyebrows. 2jags not 2 pennies to rub together. Both women propped up by full time working husbands. It's a very strange world they live in.

Ha, lets see if she delivers! I bet she doesn't, along with the glass extension that never happened, her minions are too stupid to see right through her claims they just suck up everything she says like a hoover...

Angrymum22 · 14/04/2024 10:57

Surely by now they have worked out that FL is like every other business. The bosses get the biggest percentage of the profit. The more downlines you have the less you have to work. Yawn has worked her arse off for a yoga mat size bonus whereas her up line has been able to lean back and let her minions do the work. The difference between them is that Uber is more astute about her choice of downlines. She has her favourites who she channels business through and Yawn isn’t one of them.
Yawn has started to realise that she needs to do some serious arse licking around Bloodsucker but is likely to be far too late. I suspect she is going the way of Castle, her ego is far too big for the “community”.
The head of the family is probably aware of her sideline venture into weight loss guru and has firmly advised her to read company Ts&Cs regarding the claims she has made. she has not made any TicToc videos recently and has definitely gone quiet on the lead up to FGR. I wonder if Yawn will be kicked out like Castle. Deviating from the FL path is not a good move.

MrsDilligaf · 14/04/2024 11:19

I'm very disappointed that there are no clues as to the amounts. I wonder if the reason the amounts are shown in dollars is because its more showy?

$10,000 is just over £8,000 so all these five figure bonus claims are another big fat fib.

Sugarplum48 · 14/04/2024 11:46

We can all see yawn 200% going the way Castle has gone. Deluded, lying con artist making wild claims about her income when she's being 1000% supported by rich relatives. As we've all said before the yawns and castles of this world have no transferable skill set so in the future they are screwed.

OhMyGiddyAunt · 14/04/2024 11:56

@Angrymum22 ...I think you're spot on about Yawn's ego and the fact she's heading the same way as Castle. She thinks she's some sort of celebrity.

She's certainly been overstepping the mark in her desperation eg. weightloss claims.

I honestly don't think that Yawns parents are rich, Castles parents are wealthy though.

WisteriaLodge · 14/04/2024 12:11

As much as I hate the business model and everything it stands for I don't get mean girl vibes from Uber like I do with Yawn, perhaps people can sense that..

Sugarplum48 · 14/04/2024 12:20

I don't think they are short of money from what l remember yawn spouting about to us back in the day when she was a regular working person

Sugarplum48 · 14/04/2024 12:21

@WisteriaLodge yup sadly yawn has always been a rather spiteful mean spirit. As I've always said " people don't change, they just mask"

Butterflyfluff · 14/04/2024 12:24

OMFG - check out Yawn’s pathetic, fake tears video about Virgin Atlantic.

Strong, confident, independent business woman - my arse!

hurlyburlygirly · 14/04/2024 12:51

I'm not meaning to sound harsh here but that flight thing is the kind of thing that is a major issue if you're stony broke..

A ball ache, granted, but on a 6 figure income you'd whack it on a credit card and sort it out with virgin later

MeAndMounjaro · 14/04/2024 12:54

Any company worth their salt would book you a flight home from a company event or a hotel until a flight was available. In fact, in the national company I work for in my J-O-B, I have a company credit card so I'd be able to use that and then explain the situation after if I couldn't get hold of anyone to advise a better option.

Does anyone know how much the plane ticket would have cost? Surely Yawn could have covered it with her six figure income or whatever it is she claims to have rather than crying and falling to pieces?! Even if then making a complaint and claiming it back later from Virgin or Forever?

Definitely - and that’s if it was personal travel.

If you were travelling for work with any decent company, they’d sort it for you without question, no fuss required.
