Now it's more like 50 apps per day, 2 interviews, 0 offers. Except for the MLM that you didn't realize was an MLM. They always give an offer.

lol, the offer is pay $200 starting fee to your upline before we send you to brainwashing “training” sessions. “Before you know it you’ll be raking in millions!” I had a buddy of mine fall into an MLM after failing to sell his handmade creams. I think he’s still trapped in it while his wife works her ass off to make ends meet with their two kids. Feel bad for her more than him. But more angry at MLMs, truly scummy.

Yeah, it's disgusting. And I didn't realize how many industries have MLMs. I always basically thought it was Tupperware and makeup. Boy, was I wrong.
