Our family had a run in with Amway once.
One of my dad's friends from our church tried to recruit my parents to sell Amway. We did use the LOC and SA8 but they did not seem much better than other cleaning products at the time (early 80's). "Joe" the Amway man would often come over without calling ahead, at strange hours. Finally mother was so b----ty with him he went away.
My sisters were friends with Joe's daughters until they started to sell Amway. Then they started to stay away and not even say hi, not wanting to run into a high pressure sales pitch.
In the mid 90's, I believe, President Clinton had a "town meeting" where he answered questions from the audience about the economy. One man said he wanted to know what Clinton was going to do for small businesses. I am sure when Mr. Clinton asked "May I ask what kind of a business" he did not expect to hear "It's an Amway business". People in the audience with giggling and the disc jockeys the next day were having a field day with that.
For some reason, Amway gets a lot of military families - I wonder why, do they think everything has to be kept a "spit shine" and would you a lot of the products?
Also years ago, on the late night radio, Larry King was on the Mutual Network which was owned by Amway. One caller asked if Larry ever used Amway products. I don't remember the answer, but can anyone see Larry King using a cleaning product, he probably does not know how to turn on a washing machine! Amway probably has a hair product he could use, but I think Ron Popeil's hair spray would work better on him.
Nep, probably getting into big trouble with the Amway police!
