The closest I came to true desperation was selling knives for the Vector corporation (earn $15 an hour!). Even I wouldn't sink that low!

Oh man. I went to one of their 'presentations'. They refused to call it the business, or the company. It was to be referred to as 'The Opportunity'. We had a 20 year old kid with a hundred dollar haircut giving us this spiel.

I listened attentively and politely, and left at the soonest possible time. Good grief, there's a lot of this nonsense out there.

In that dry period in my life, I ended up delivering things in bobtail trucks. Even that had its cheesy moments, when they'd try to overload me and give me instructions on avoiding weigh stations. I flat-out refused to do this, and I refused to drive an overloaded rig, which made me a 'troublemaker'. Aghh.

Good thing, it's a scam.
