I used to work for a company in Southern California started by former Great
Expectations employees. They tried on one hand to bill themselves as "exclusive"
and on the other would take anyone who had a dollar to their name. It was
an interesting experience. I once was sent out to a ghetto-like neighborhood to sell
to a woman, with no teeth and almost no furniture in her house--not that I'm
prejudiced against the toothless and furnitureless--but her chances of getting a
date even if she did sign up were almost nil from what I could see.
Didn't last long with the company as their tactics and philosophy were too foreign
to my style.
