A favorite pass time of many Mary Kay sales directors is bashing “Corporate America.” They refer to jobs as “J.O.B. – Journey of the Broke” and generally criticize the lack of flexibility surrounding traditional jobs.What they forget to mention is the steady paycheck, the benefits, the paid vacation, and all …
Here is a recent post in a Mary Kay group on Facebook. The poor consultant can’t find new customers, and knows she’s going to have to do the “warm chatter” thing. (For those who are new, “warm chatter” means walking up to a stranger in public and trying to start …
I can’t help but feel sorry for this Mary Kay consultant. She is somewhere below Red Jacket level, but appears to really believe she’s going to be a national sales director in 5 years. She’s decided that she will have commission checks of $7,500 a month starting six months from …
Seriously, is MK all that bad? I stumbled across your website and am surprised at all the negativity. I am a firm believer in being in business for yourself and avoiding working at a J.O.B. (Just Over Broke). Its hard to believe that MK is evil. By all means bad …

Written by Lazy Gardens How do Mary Kay recruiters get women to do things that are not in their best interests? The most basic example is ordering inventory they don’t need on a credit card, because they don’t have the money. There is an easy explanation and it is called …
A sweet note from a Pink Truth critic: I always wondered where all the mean girls were in MK. Now I know …. they go to your site as quiters to have pitty parties….and that’s so sad… Think of how many lives have been discouraged by your site….and who get’s …
You really can’t make this stuff up. This is a document from retired Mary Kay NSD Anita Mallory (formerly known as Anita Garrett-Rowe). She tells us how to get the “offsprings” we need. And it’s all about telling them lies. Telling them it’s easy? Complete nonsense. You now have some …
When women leave Mary Kay, I always find myself wanting them to tell the truth about what an awful company it is. And they almost never do. Our friend JTA was brave enough to tell the truth, and she likely lost all her MK friends because of it. Most of …
