It's not an MLM or pyramid scheme; it is regular sales employment. You're not getting other people to sell them for you nor are you encouraged to find others looking to join the sales team. It just sucks dick because the pay is shit (and they go through hoops to pay you less or nothing; which is where the scam part comes in), they treat you like shit, and you have to basically sell them door-to-door.

It's stupid because the knives are great products; I still have my sample set because they actually rock. They just only sell them like Tupperware clubs and only market them via word of mouth. They'd be making bank if they just sold them to retailers instead of fucking with young people looking for their first job.

I sold cutco knives for a month.

If you're looking for a job, stay the fuck away from anything dealing with "CutCo" or "Vector Marketing."

Edit: Its not really a pyramid scheme... They just do everything they can to weasel out of giving you your paycheck on payday and because it's sales commission, I don't think they have to follow minimum wage laws since you're not paid hourly.

Unless they've seriously changed how it fundamentally works (this was when I was 18). They never encouraged or paid extra for getting others to sell for you, like a typical MLM thing.

When I was a kid, I would get in trouble getting those Columbia House offers where they advertise like 12 CDs for one cent; but then charge a subscription fee every month. So I'm not 100% sure what my first one was, because I got 12 of 'em at once.

I know that's how I discovered Silverchair though. I just picked out their album Frogstomp because I liked the picture of the frog. 🤣

I still like every track on that album. Especially given the shit today where Suicidal Dream is basically my anthem...

Even outside of their space, when they "argue" it had generally been posting giant, random images that had little to no context followed by walls of emojis. Which is why my blocklist is mostly Hexbear users.

Did the question of androids dreaming of electric sheep actually get answered in the novel? 🤔

I would go back in time to 1995 and give John Carmack modern tools and maybe UE5 and see what happens.

I planned on getting my dad a sound bar for his TV on his birthday because the TV he uses, the plastic grill over the speaker vibrates something fierce and it sounds like absolute garbage any time something with any amount of bass plays. But maybe I can just glue some rocks to it 🤔

A forum for the explicit purpose of telling jokes. You know... Like a comedy club? 🤔

If you truly want to see God, you need only look into a mirror. Humans are gods. We have the power of life and death. We can make the impossible possible. It just doesn't happen in the blink of an eye.

Which ones? The ones I get only have instructions for the whole bag or half the bag. I gotta figure out how not to burn them when I just want 10.

He also has a coke nail to open those pesky glass bottles.

 

I got a Quest 3 recently after having to give up my Quest 2 a year ago and I'm noticing that VD is using a lot of CPU power even when it's not actually doing anything. Is it encoding stuff even when there's nothing to send it to or what?

I always have to close it when doing flat space stuff because it causes some slow down in games that already don't run great (like arma 3).

 

Lemme see your transcripts, Doc. I ain't trusting my life to anything less than an A+, honor roll student.
