Vector sent me a letter offering a $15/hr job. When I got there it turned out to be $15 per sales pitch, with driving time, lead generation time, training, and everything else unpaid. There were many other signs it was a scam. When I came back for the second day of training, I presented my evidence, but I wasn’t able to convince anyone else to leave.
I went to a vector sales seminar. After the first day the lead guy was so impressed with me i was one of 5 people he met with afterwards telling me to 10x a list of people i knew, he asked everyone else for 100 names. I knew the next day we would have to buy a $150 knife kit and likely be coerced into contacting that list to pester those people into buying knives so i slept in and skipped it. I woke up to an annoyed phone call from the chief lackey complaining that i should have attended.
Privileged kids. I had a college roommate who did this and he was most definitely bankrolled by his parents. We’re talking the lazy fake draw, and calling everything he didn’t like “gay”. These are the people that will be running this country in a few years cause of nepotism.
I almost did because I was 16 and wanted a job. The voicemail I left was so atrocious. “I’m Uhh calling about the Uhh…” looks at mass mailed letter trying to figure out the job “Uhh job.” The I hit # to redo the message but that didn’t work so it just had a button press noise on the recording. They never called back.
The one I went to some late 20 year old rich kid did a presentation in an empty office, just chairs and like a table, for maybe a dozen or so of us, showed the knife cutting a penny in half, like that’s an impressive thing, they are zinc now and only copper coated, and both metals are softer than steel.
I pointed out it was a federal crime to destroy money.
The fake kind that doesn’t exist. It’s trivial to generate nonsense post likes this with genAI to the point where doing it with humans makes no financial sense.
Vector is a pyramid scheme. What kind of, uh, person, gets suckered into this “interview” like I did, and pays them to sell their overpriced bullshit?
