Well my journey began back in the late 1990's, I was on summer break from college and moved out on my own for the first time. I needed a job and bam, what an opportunity right? I must admit, I was one of those believers and was all about the opportunity much like many others. I quickly found myself in debt, with less friends, less time, and less money. Not to mention I stopped going to college for the "opportunity". That lasted just over a year, my office went under and the owner went back to where he originally came from. Since then I went back to college, graduated with my B.S. degree and my Masters in Engineering. Do I regret my time at DS-MAX, I do, but I do think I learned a few things about myself in the process. Always try and take something positive away from a negative experience. Well, thats my story, just one of thousands as you all likely know. Juice to that right haha ;D

Juice...makes me laugh everytime I hear that word used for anything but the kind ya drink, lol. I think everybody went into this job thinking they were going to make it big, I know I did. I had visions of getting my own office I believe in Charlotte for some reason. Why Charlotte?? No idea, just sounded cool I guess, lol. I met some great people working there, and still good friends with a few of them which is about the only positive thing that came out of that wreck of a job...well that and horny, lonely housewives from time to time. I'm glad I got out of that job when I did but like Aftermath, I don't regret being there. It was one helluva life experience that I do not intend to repeat...ever! LOL

I quit my job at Cydcor in Indy with the Uverse campaign recently. Was in it for a couple months and got in leadership by the end of 3 weeks. Needless to say the stories I've read are eerily similar to my own experience. Unfortunately there are several ppl in the business who I really respect including my manager and ass. man. and wish to remain anonymous. And as you know it is very rarely the people in the business who are flawed but it's the business model itself that is flawed.
