I wish there were a way to answer the Kirby salesman. I'd tell him to go get a real job, one that doesn't pester people at home when most people are trying to rest up from work and have an enjoyable evening. Did you notice how late they were at that kid's home? Sheesh!<BR/><BR/>I actually sold Avon for awhile when I was very young. This was a product women wanted and you didn't work door-to-door, you worked with appointments. I gave it up when I found out I was allergic to Avon products. LOL! I can't sell something I can't use myself. Besides, I'm not a very good salesperson anyway. I'm not pushy enough. <BR/><BR/>I don't see how they can promise you $462.00 a week with or without sales and not get their butts sued! Was there anything in writing? There probably wasn't, but someone should look into that. It's despicable!<BR/><BR/>Off topic: I fixed the link at Wednesday's Hero. The one that was first sent to me was in error.

The cleaners are so expensive - wonderful but expensive and when the economy goes - - well - - so do the Kirby purchases. <BR/><BR/>I'm also going to try a temp agency when I get my health back - they often work into full time jobs. Good luck anywayGardeniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06233358355888022857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36979815.post-89447876429984005802008-05-08T07:52:00.000-04:002008-05-08T07:52:00.000-04:00Hammer so are we.
