Gah... one of their agents is here.

I've known a few people who've become involved with MLM stuff, and they always consider themselves that "exception to the MLM rule," the one who wasn't taken in, who doesn't annoy their friends with it, who just "do it a little on the side." That always means they're fooling themselves, or that they ran out of ambition and they're trying to wash the shame off with a chunk of steel wool.

MLM has only been pitched to me once... a co-worker approached me and asked "Have you ever heard of Equinox?"

I laughed and replied, "I've heard that they're a bunch of crooks who turn your friends into slimy salesmen." He never brought it up again.
