Anastasia’s Party With No Guests
Written by Parsons Green
Anastasia Syzmkowski is still working hard in her Mary Kay Business. She is a second line director in the Jamie Taylor National Area underneath Megan Coleman.
Last year, I discussed how no one was coming to her parties. Imagine being a former Cadillac director, and no one comes to your parties! In June, she drove an hour to participate in a vendor event. Even thought she got 4 new leads, her canopy was damaged and had to be tossed out.
She was so desperate to finish a MK car, that she blasted so many messages to so many people, that Facebook locked her out messaging!
She finished that car by the skin of her teeth, so the next logical move is to try to get a Cadillac. (You know, the car she lost before for lack of production.)
In September, Anastasia decided to have an event at her house involving masks and margaritas! This is going to get her into the Cadillac, don’t you think? (Psssst…. she was even offering rum cake to the attendees. This would make them come!)
Unfortunately, no one showed. Only in MLM is it a good thing when you have zero results.
Anastasia is not deterred though. The cancellations gave her time to relax and reflect. You’d also be able to do this on your day off from a paying job. Please join her team. In Anastasia’s world, the benefits she’s getting from being in Mary Kay are better than anything she’d get from a job.
I don’t know about you but I’d rather have a 401k with a company match and health insurance. And a paycheck from that real job isn’t too bad either.

Anastasia, why don’t you quit Mary Kay and find out?
This was the same place I was fired for being “derogatory” towards someone I really looked up to and shared my heart with because I thought they cared.
Was it Mary Kay or your personal brand of religion you were preaching to your co-worker? Although with some MKBots, I wouldn’t rule out any type of racial, sexual or religious slurs neither.
I was apart (sic) of the corporate America cult
You still are “a part” of the corporate America cult just with much less in the way of protections and mcuh less money.
The way I’ve seen it play out was “I thought they were a fellow bigot so I figured I could share my bigoted sentiments with them, but they aren’t and furthermore there’s a zero-tolerance policy BUT IT’S NOT MY FAULT!!!” :shocked Pikachu face:
I would actually guess that her “derogatory” comments had to do with referring to the job or a task as ‘soul-sucking,” or perhaps using the phrase “J.O.B.” and implying that coworkers or a supervisor are worker bees who will never reach the dizzying financial heights that she is clearly destined for.
Saying her 9-5 “real jobs” sucked the spirit out of her is her passive aggressive way of telling everyone else their 9-5 do the same. Except we can all see from her oversharing fb posts that MK sucks the spirit and life out of everyone, so yall don’t quit your day job. Life is hard right now. MK will notttt make it any easier.
Feeling that your job is sucking the life out of you is a sign that you’re in the wrong job. Admittedly, the job market sucks spent nuclear fuel rods right now so it might not be possible to get a new one, but you can learn to advocate for yourself. That will help you push back against an unreasonable workload and being given the runaround about taking time off. You can learn to network, which is important for advancement within a job and getting leads outside it. And even if you hate it, it’s a paycheck and health benefits while you job search or wait for retirement.
Oh, and it’s fine to be friendly with your coworkers and higher-ups, but don’t “pour your heart out”. They aren’t your family or your therapist. Keep your political and religious views to yourself at work.
My slogan: “I’m not here to make friends, I’m here to make money.”
She was supplying alcohol to her customers?! Yikes! That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen. Plus, I never felt good about selling to drunk people. They don’t make the best decisions while tipsy and then I am having to use my time to give refunds.
Good point. Besides the drunk buying, it could get expensive. If someone got sick or hurt on her property, that’d be a claim against her homeowner’s insurance. And god forbid someone get into an accident on the way home!
Will it never click that these “what can you do for me” messages ad infinitum are not working?
Help me earn a car. Help me earn a trip. Me. Me. Me. My goal.
The constant sobbing, begging, and pleading is not professional. Displaying “vulnerability” is embarrassing and unnecessary.
What I see many MK consultants demonstrating is simply glorified panhandling. It is not empowering to women. It’s degrading.
