Illegal business practices put employees at risk

I would like to make it clear before hand that this in no way reflects my opinion of the product, which is a good product, but so are several others.
The most affordable, yet powerful vacuum I have seen is the Hoover wind tunnel, so to those who have one, please keep it and save your money.

I like so many unfortunate young people, fell prey to the alluring promises of Kirby. You get 2000 a month plus commission. Wow I could buy a car, go to school, live a little. I quit a job to work for them. Why not dollars is better than 800 right. Should have known something was up when my second day I was stopped by a cop, who was wondering why I did not have a permit to solicit. I was told later that that might happen, and if I was given a ticket, it would be payed by my boss. I worked a few more weeks to try and get better.

I improved at my knocking ability, but I could not sell. No one wanted a 2000 dollar vacuum, no matter if you called it a home care system. The day came when that "possible ticket" became a reality. I was the only one who relieved it because my team leader would not drive over, insisting that he was in another city, doing a house call. So I was ticketed 300 dollars, and told by my manager, right to my face, "don't worry, I will take care of it." I went on vacation, came back, decided it was to much of a risk, and I quit.

I figured "don't worry, I will take care of it." meant something. No it did not, he said that he did not have to, that team leaders chose to if they wanted.

His name like mine is Josh, the other team leader is a man named Terry. The trainer is Mario and the owner is Tao trung.

Research a job before hand, and at the first sign of trouble, leave.

To any police officers who may read this, we are told that we need permits, so if a Kirby salesman says they didn't know, and that the won't come back to the same area again without a license they are lying, giving them a ticket will save everyone some grief.

I hope that this will help someone.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
